In a new documentary on the Alpha Theta/Pioneer DJ official YouTube channel, science meets sound on ‘We Become One’s
Featuring neuroscientists,Dr. Maria Witek, Daniel Levitin and Dr. Julia Basso, this 60min film breaks down the mind-music connection. We learn how the beats at the rave trigger neurotransmitters like oxytocin on the dancefloor, brings people together in positive communal spaces and breaks down language barriers.
No documentary about electronic music is complete without artists and DJs who live the experience every weekend. Thankfully, there’s plenty of input from the likes of He.She.They, Moodymann, Kink and DJ Dan Ghenacia, touching on audio-visual DJ’ing and community inspired initiatives like Bridges for Music.
You know it, you feel it but it’s fascinating to learn about the science and history behind raving in this must see film.
