Ever wondered how music evolved?
Who must have figured out notes, progressions, scales, beats, rhythms n so on...
As far as I know, it's the only language internationally spoken! and all genres of music follow the same rules, u bend em a little and it's called Jazz!

psy trance was created by a couple of spiked monkeys
trying to break some nuts outside goa gil's hut in the himalayas.
Nothing is said that has not been said before. |

the "bend it and call it jazz" thing is stupid..jazz is a lot closer to classical music than something like Peking Opera or traditional Indonesian music..
Music evolves because of different people thinking in different ways, but all of these things (the beat, progression, note, scale, etc.) all occur in nature with or without us.
just another reflection of ourselves when we choose to create it.. |

i think this is an interesting topic.
i can bet my soul to satan that the answer resides in our brains, mostly in the temporal lobe.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temporal_lobe
that maybe the answer to why is the music an international language.
i once hear about a mental disorder caused by traumatism in the temporal lobe called (amusa?) this disorder makes a people able to still hear music and all sounds perfectly but losts the capacity to apreciate and recognize musicall tunes
but about how music evolved

I have heard it suggested that the fact that music can covey emotion across cultural boundries is related to the fact that vocal expression is also cross-linguistic (as in you know an angry voice and a sad voice, even if you dont speak the language). That would be consistant with the idea that the association of certain sound patterns with emotions is somehow hard-wired into the brain.
I'll conduct a literature search on the matter and report back wih any interesting stuff I find
