GMM 265: Matching Music to Your Mood

what if you could have the perfect music to match every one of your moods let’s talk about that hi I’m Jesse and I’m Michelle we’re at the top of the Seattle Space Needle good mythical morning good mythical morning welcome to today’s show it’s a new week we trust that you’re wearing blue and red like we I did not coordinate this but I you know I wit our fashion sense is in sync and that’s interesting because I think in this episode we’re going to explore how some other things like our taste in music and moods could potentially be in sync please do it um I hope you’re in a good mood today but no matter what mood you’re in I trust that this will tickle your fancy okay I promise you your fancy will be tickle and how would that happen well because there’s there’s an article about some thing about matching music to your moods and we’re going to play we’re not going to play a game we’re going to do an experiment here that I think is going to be fun and it’s going to tickle fancies okay around the globe how’s it going to work link okay brain scanning headphones match songs to your mood this is a Mashable article that I’ve come across Miko headphones developed by neuro where the headphones feature a protruding electro fallow graph sensor that scans brain patterns to match a person’s mood with an appropriate song headphones that say what mood you’re in oh here’s the perfect song for that when plugged into a smart device running Miko’s app the headphones detect the wearer’s state of mind and select a neuro tagged mood fitting song from neuro wares database genius the sides of the earpieces illuminate with music plays and even show symbols such as zzzzip these are sleepy stressed or focused okay pretty cool this is pretty awesome I’ve always wanted this now we don’t have these headphones but what we do have is we have Jason and we also have our iTunes libraries here’s what we’ve done Jason can always tell when it when I’m in a sour mood or a nice mood or it his nickname is Miko but it is now so anyway what we did is Jay gave us a list of moods and he said go through your iTunes library and select a song that you think and reinforces this mood for you personal each of us independently write we didn’t share our answers so what we’re going to do now is we’re gonna state a mood and then I’m going to assume the mood I don’t know about you say said I’m gonna be sad cuz I feel I got the show sure I’ll do that and then that way we can judge a whose song is playing and who’s better the mood and there’s a chance that when he plays a song because we don’t know what song whose song is going to play there’s a chance it could be both of our songs because I think we’ve demonstrated we both spend a million dollars on the same thing we both travel back in time to do the same thing and we both like to wear red and blue on this day in our lives if one of our songs matches listen man I’ll buy you a itunes gift card for like $20 and I’ll buy you will buy each other $20 iTunes gift card okay switcheroo okay mood number one play along at home if you want to in whatever fashion you can you can guess the song or agree or disagree with it if it represents the mood ambivalent you pick this this is your stuff what is this alright it’s Kenny G man didn’t even think about it’s like okay whatever man this actually seems a little cool like I’m walking down the street in like the 70s or something yet you don’t care about it like in an elevator do you feel good about that I bet I don’t care I’m ambivalent me at Timmy G I think it’s a little too cool to be okay well lever to cooler let’s hear link song for an Bibble what’s my ambivalent don’t care grizzly bear man it’s a grizzly bear saw was kind of we get it I think it said too sad all right it’s sad but it’s also sad is is is an angle of ambivalence II Kenny G is just he doesn’t care about anything that’s why I picked it okay next mood are you ready for angry you know this alright oh yeah hey is this yours – Hank jr. no this isn’t mine mine’s quite different now let just let me explain my here mine mine is angry because like this guy the whole story of this song is that the guy who killed his wife and child was let out of was it was let off like the judge let him go and now Hank jr. is going after him and let him let him have it with a guns and grief he’s angry you don’t get any angrier and killing your wife and show this isn’t a bad choice and it’s an awesome song by the way you should download us you’re my guy right here my angry song I want to live wasting okay that’s enough without I don’t want to get too angry that’s a good one I knew you were going to choose Rage Against the Machine I’m raged I don’t own any Rage Against the Machine that’s your problem now Hank jr. singing Rage Against the Machine that has happened that would be pretty awful what else we got paranoid okay this is it Matt this is yours yeah okay I’ll give you an a-plus on this more rubber
