A new study finds that an 80s pop playlist is the best for reducing anxiety. Turkish researchers hooked 15-hundred people up to heart monitors and found that 80s pop music (like Wham and Pet Shop Boys) decreased blood pressure in 96 percent of them. Surprisingly, Heavy Metal also reduced blood pressure (they think it might help listeners process their feelings). Techno and dubstep were found to increase anxiety the most, while Seventies rock anthems were most likely to raise blood pressure.
