Just one more thing: hey, musical archetypes can be used… that is, something that appears repeatedly in music… they can be used to separate out different aspects of emotion, and understand them… certain chord progressions, rhythms, or melodic intervals reliably produce sadness, joy, tension, or longing… these can act like building blocks of emotion , isolating different emotional aspects.
