Why music brings no joy to some people

Date:
    January 12, 2026
Source:
    Cell Press/ Science Daily

Summary:
    A small group of people experience no pleasure from music despite normal hearing and intact emotions. Brain imaging reveals that their auditory and reward systems fail to properly communicate, leaving music emotionally flat. Researchers developed a questionnaire to measure how rewarding music feels across emotions, mood, movement, and social connection. The findings suggest pleasure isn’t all-or-nothing and may depend on how specific brain networks connect.

Music makes us move even when we don't like it
People with musical anhedonia still derive pleasure from groovy tunes

Summary:
The pleasurable urge to move to music -- to groove -- appears to be a physiological response independent of how much we generally enjoy music, according to a new article. That groove response is so strong it is even found in people with musical anhedonia, those who take little or no pleasure from music. Researchers compared groove responses

Summary:
It doesn’t matter if it’s Bach, the Beatles, Brad Paisley or Bruno Mars. Your favorite music likely triggers a similar type of activity in your brain as other people’s favorites do in theirs, new research has found.

Study suggests we don't just hear music, but 'become it'
Researchers show brain rhythms sync with sound to create emotion, movement and meaning

Summary:
Your brain and body literally “sync” with music, according to new research. Instead of just understanding rhythm, our neural circuits physically resonate with it—shaping how we feel and move to music. This could lead to breakthroughs in therapy, education, and emotionally aware AI.
