Music Is More Than Background Noise
We often treat music as entertainment, a soundtrack running in the background of life. But anyone who has ever been struck by a familiar melody knows that music is much more than that.
A single song can take you back decades. It can summon forgotten stories, spark laughter, or even bring tears. Music is memory in motion.
At Music and Memory Junction (MMJ), we believe music is not just something you hear — it’s something you can study, reflect on, and live. That belief led us to create something new: Music Discussion Clubs.
