>>9707794Well, consider the relevant domains of "intelligence" that influence affect:
>pattern recognition: High IQ people can perceive and follow more complex melodies than Low IQ people>symbolism: HIQ people can see depth and meaning in shallow music that LIQ people like>empathy: HIQ can appreciate what LIQ people like, but not the inverse>catecholamines/sensation seeking: HIQ people seek out and absorb a wider variety and quantity of information, because they habituate to familiar stimuli more rapidlyIf anything, this is a "negative" IQ test. If you only listen to the same 10 or so songs that were top 40s in your area, over and over again, and never branch out, you're probably a brainlet.
Personally I enjoy female vocalists and world music, like 9 Treasures, Moemoe Suzuhama, Lana Del Rey, and those playlists of Japanese military marches or whatever. Hate indie, prog rock and reggaeton.
