Abstract / Description

In the electronic music scene, the term "bassface" refers to a specific facial expression that is often displayed when listening to intense bass. Despite its seemingly negative externality, this expression always represents positive emotions. This article examines the historical origins of the term and the relevance of the phenomenon to psychological research, particularly with regard to the discrepancy between perceived emotion and outward expression.
