A new study from Philips and renowned professor and neuroscientist Dr. Daniel J. Levitin, indicates that music activates the brain in the same way as a chemical stimulant providing elevated feelings of pleasure, excitement or satisfaction. Inducing the same feelings as sex or drugs, music produces a chemical response by which neural circuits involved in reward help to modulate levels of dopamine in the brain, the so-called "feel good" hormone.
