I cannot stand very loud music

except in a club or disco where I love it. But to torture my ear drum “in the comfort of my own home” or to consciously stress myself out when I’m driving relaxed on a beautiful day.
Never.
The truth is I cannot focus on doing anything if the music is too loud. It’s like that strong base is all I can think about… in a club there’s nothing to focus on except dancing. See my point?

Even worse is when you are forced to listen to music at maximum volume: in a store for example. Here, in Romania, quite a few stores try to be cool and fancy by turning that volume button to the max. Lee Cooper for example. In this kind of situation I walk in and I walk out. I refuse to communicate by screaming. Poor fancy salesgirls…

I honestly believe that sonic pollution has a tremendous affect on our brain. Loud music may sound good or apparently relax you, but I believe it is still pollution to our neurons.

For those of you who disagree with me here is a little treat. Maybe this will be enough: THE SONIC BED

“12 channel surround sound and requires 220 volts to power of electricity and covers every inch of your body in sound” as described on Freshome.
