“…Madison (2006) asked nonmusicians to rate a large number of musical excerpts from different genres on 14 scales, one of which was labeled "groove," defined as "inducing movement." A factor analysis yielded four factors, one of which loaded highly on the "groove" and "driving" scales.…”

Sensorimotor synchronization (SMS) is the coordination of rhythmic movement with an external rhythm, ranging from finger tapping in time with a metronome to musical ensemble performance. An earlier review (Repp, 2005) covered tapping studies; two additional reviews (Repp, 2006a, b) focused on music performance and on rate limits of SMS, respectively. The present article supplements and extends these earlier reviews by surveying more recent research in what appears to be a burgeoning field. The article comprises four parts, dealing with (1) conventional tapping studies, (2) other forms of moving in synchrony with external rhythms (including dance and nonhuman animals' synchronization abilities), (3) interpersonal synchronization (including musical ensemble performance), and (4) the neuroscience of SMS. It is evident that much new knowledge about SMS has been acquired in the last 7 years.

“…Indeed, a fascinating aspect of beat perception is its strong relationship with movement [45][46][47][48][49][50]. On the one hand, music spontaneously entrains humans to move [45][46][47]. On the other hand, it has been shown that movement influences the perception of musical rhythms [46,51].…”

The ability to perceive a regular beat in music and synchronize to this beat is a widespread human skill. Fundamental to musical behaviour, beat and meter refer to the perception of periodicities while listening to musical rhythms and often involve spontaneous entrainment to move on these periodicities. Here, we present a novel experimental approach inspired by the frequency-tagging approach to understand the perception and production of rhythmic inputs. This approach is illustrated here by recording the human electroencephalogram responses at beat and meter frequencies elicited in various contexts: mental imagery of meter, spontaneous induction of a beat from rhythmic patterns, multisensory integration and sensorimotor synchronization. Collectively, our observations support the view that entrainment and resonance phenomena subtend the processing of musical rhythms in the human brain. More generally, they highlight the potential of this approach to help us understand the link between the phenomenology of musical beat and meter and the bias towards periodicities arising under certain circumstances in the nervous system. Entrainment to music provides a highly valuable framework to explore general entrainment mechanisms as embodied in the human brain.

“…Groove has a strong affective component, as well as a strong correlation to music appreciation (Madison, 2006). According to Janata et al (2012), we find pleasurable the music that makes us want to dance and such music elicits spontaneous rhythmic movements.…”

“…Based on the frequency of the words in the responses, they formed a definition: "groove is the aspect of the music that induces a pleasant sense of wanting to move along with the music" (p. 56). In the following, we adopted Madison's (2006) definition of groove: "the sensation of wanting to move some part of the body" (p. 203) in relation to some aspect of the sound pattern.…”

Abstract:Syncopation is a rhythmic phenomenon present in various musical styles and cultures. I present in this dissertation a set of simple rhythmic transformations that can serve as a formalized model for syncopation for the purposes of generation and analysis of music. The transformations are based on fundamental features of the musical meter and syncopation, as seen from a cognitive and a musical perspective. Based on this model, rhythmic patterns can be organized in tree structures where patterns are interconnected through simple transformations. The model was applied in the design of three listening experiments that explore the relation between syncopation and groove, i.e. the sensation of wanting to move when listening to music. A software plugin is presented as an application of the model.It manipulates the syncopation of audio and MIDI "clips" by automatically de-syncopating and syncopating its content.ii Resumo:Síncopa é um fenómeno rítmico presente em várias culturas e estilos musicais. Nesta dissertação, eu apresento um conjunto de transformações rítmicas simples que constituem um modelo formalizado da síncopa para fins de geração e análise de música. As transformações são baseadas em características fundamentais do compasso musical e síncopa vistos de um ponto de vista cognitivo e musical. Com base neste modelo, padrões rítmicos podem ser organizados em estruturas de árvore (tree structures) onde os padrões são interligados através de transformações simples. O modelo foi aplicado no projeto de três experiências de escuta que exploram a relação entre síncopa e "groove", ou seja, a sensação de querer mover quando ouvir música. Um plugin é apresentado como uma aplicação do modelo que manipula a síncopa de MIDI e áudio "clips" automaticamente.iii
