The next time you find yourself dancing at a concert, it might be more than just your favorite jams making you groove.
In a study published on November 7 in the journal Current Biology, researchers found that undetectable, very low-frequency (VLF) vibrations at music shows cause people to dance more. The study’s authors believe that this might mean that certain music vibrations impact pathways deep in the brain and create a reward system from dancing.
“These results demonstrate that a complex, social behavior—dance—can be increased in intensity by VLFs without participants’ awareness,” the study’s authors wrote.
