What is the difference between serious music for the soul and entertainment?

At all times in music there was a division into serious music, "for the soul", and entertaining, "for the body." Moreover, in general, serious music was quoted much higher than entertainment-dance music - simply because it is more difficult to reach the soul and less often than to the body.

Nightmare or Astral Attack?

And although at first glance it may seem that a direct intrusion into our dreams may seem very dangerous, nevertheless night contact with spirits is not always aggressive and violent.
