It's important to know how our brain interacts with itself when it's trying to mix music in a way that influence other people's brains to trick themselves into feeling that buying our music is the best idea always. That's the way it goes.

Ok, I'm going to read the article now.😬

EDIT: Ok, @Yohai Zilber , I'm ready to re-formulate now: As mixers, we need to be very aware of the physical and psychical components involved in human perception of sound in order to conquer the power to create an innocent, great musical experience that can get us signed to a Record Company. They will make their marketing staff influence other people's brains to trick themselves into feeling that buying our music is the best idea always. We work on our music, they do the Pavlov stuff. That's the way it goes.

Just kidding -It's a great article with a lot of interesting info. I recommend it specially for those who, like me, mix and train at SoundGym using headphones, specially the Localization and Stereo Image part.

Cool stuff.

Here is a link to a part of the PBS documentary The Music Instinct about how sound is received and interpreted by the brain.
