I admit it, I get skin orgasms.

Did that get your attention? 

It seems that the topic of how therapeutic music can be and how it can involve us on another level has been discussed before with some of us describing a kind of ethereal effect on our minds and bodies, sometimes to the sound of crickets (short threads).

Well, it seems there is such a thing and most of the population can feel it when provoked, or stimulated. It's called frisson. 

I also wonder just how many here feel it and on how regular a basis. After reading the article I've come to the conclusion that it is addictive and is partly responsible for our obsessiveness, our tweaking, our search for better gear. It also explains a kind of refinement one goes through when seeking out particular styles of music and music reproduction and why some of us have a low tolerance for music or gear that doesn't stimulate. Why bother when deep down in we all know what we like and avoid, with prejudice, anything that interferes. 

It might also explain why some of us have developed a keener sense of hearing compared to those who can't experience what we feel: detractors may be simply unable to experience frisson. Other kinds of addiction can result in extremely acute sensory receptions to the stimuli that others can't appreciate.

If so, I hope they never develop a 12 step program for this as I can't imagine a more beautiful kind of addiction one can have with their clothes on. 
Fess up folk, who else here is addicted?

All the best,
