Recently, I've been listening to Techno music. It is different and new for me. But some of it, the stuff I enjoy makes me sleepy. My friend sent me a link and by the end of it I was almost asleep. How does the frequencies of the music played effect the listener. And what frequencies lull one into sleep? And what combination of body frequencies and produced frequencies cause drowsiness? Just like a certain frequencies are ear splitting and cause painful headaches. Are there any know frequencies that make one happy, sad, sleepy or other emotions?

I recall that low frequency causes uneasy feelings. Even sounds so low you cant hear them.
Others are all debatable.

PS I think slow rhythms can make you sleepy. I recall long ago sleeping very deeply on a train as a child. The click-clack of the wheels etc. Maybe that is what techno is doing. The repeating beat, maybe more than the frequency.
