I like jazz when I am up. It mirrors my thinking, I guess.
I listen to ac/dc, metallica, sade, and amy winehouse when I am down.
I have tried the inverse to control my moods. Jazz when i am down (can't follow it and it's just noise) and ac/dc when i am up (too slow, it's painful). But it doesn't change my mood. So I am pretty sure the music isn't a trigger but reflective off my inner dialogue.

I didn't make for an interesting person. I didn't want to be interesting, it was too hard. What I really wanted was only a soft, hazy space to live in, and to be left alone. ~ Charles Bukowski
