Music All Around Us

Music is present in most settings. Weather it is playing in the background, or the main attraction, music seems to put people in the right mood for that particular event. At different types of social settings different types of music will be present. At a baby shower there would be easygoing music, not really for dancing. This might make the people at the party relaxed and laid back because baby showers be something that can be danced to. A teenage house party is defiantly intended to be more intense are not meant to be intense parties. At a teenage house party the music will be very loud, and upbeat. It might than a baby shower. People are very good at picking the right type of music to provoke certain moods or emotions. In stores certain types of music is played to create a more inviting atmosphere for people to shop. Whether this technique is successful is under debate and varies from person to person. I think to attend any social settings or any store without music would make the experience much different. Every time I go to a party the first thing I notice is the music. Sometimes the type of music that is played can factor in of how I enjoy myself or even if I do enjoy myself.  At stores I do notice the music, but usually I do not enjoy that music. If the music is familiar to me, I always notice, and depending on the music might put me in a better mood. Even though I might not always like the music that is playing in stores, I still like the fact that there is music. I think it makes the store less bland. It does have a major contribution. I am more likely to stay in a store with music, as opposed to one without music. Music has a way of making an environment seem more welcome which is probably why it is a major aspect of our lives.
