Exactly !!!

The same way that there is math and symmetry in art and nature.

I would be curious if there were a type or style of music that “everybody likes”. Without fail, just a certain rhythm that “everybody” finds appealing.

Back in the 60’ or 70’s, a music producer discovered a beat or pattern that drove people crazy. It came out of the blues and was quickly adopted to disco and then destroyed.

Of course, the original beat will always exist, they just took it way to far.

I’m trying to recall the producer.

That's probably why music is #6 of the seven liberal arts of classical antiquity:

  1. grammar
  2. rhetoric
  3. logic
  4. arithmetic
  5. geometry
  6. music
  7. astrology

“There is math and symmetry in music.”

An audio expression of mathematical sequences?
