There is not much informatoin on this subject, but I am interested in finding out about the melodic and harmonic intervals in dreams. If anyone reads this and is able to describe the melodic and/or harmonic intervals of the music found in their dreams please post. I am very interested in finding out the intervals, especially the hermonic intervals.
In the music in my dreams there seems to be small melodic intervals and harmonic intervals of thirds and sixths if there is poliphony involved. It is often in some unusual mode. What is the music in your dreams like, and what is average for dream music?

I don't know about the intervals or anything like that BUT I sometimes have music in my dreams. Especiall when I battle it will be like a orchastra type song. Kind of like final fantasy battle music. I also played a guitar with a delay pettel once and it sounded awesome and I have heard music coming from inside clubs last night in my non-lucid.
They're usually simple, basic intervals with melodies that go on repetition for as long as the song lasts.
Just lastnight, (which happened to be only my 5th lucid experience) I had music in my dream for what seemed to be a good amount of time..
In my dream, I was playing an Opeth song on my laptop, sitting in the back of an SUV while people around me unpacked and set up camp on a camping trip. Even though I would move away from the laptop, I could hear the music playing everywhere in the dream. Though it was complex, beautiful, and vivid, as if it really were an Opeth track. Though now, if it were, I can't recall what it was. The song played until I walked over to the car and said "Hey, you guys can turn that off, I'm sure nobody but me is listenin' to it. " , and then it ended.
I have been writing kusic for a while now and I hear completely amazing music in my dreams. Its like im hearing the music in my head in waking life. I usually hear a string orchestra with complex chord patterns, arpeggios, and melodies that string players probably couldnt actually play. Try a WILD and when you are in the transition between being asleep and awake start listining to music in your head and it will sound a lot more realistic. If you can improvise in your head thats even better. You dont even need to know how to play an instrument to make amazing music.
I have also noticed music somewhat frequently in my dreams. But except for playing violin back in middle school, i don't know enough to specify intervals. Definitely some of it is stuff i have never heard before and my mind must have created on the spot. In one of my dreams I was in my room and music started playing and it sounded amazing, and I wanted to know what it was. When I looked at my computer. It said it was animal collective's fall be kind ep... which has not come out yet.
I also heard some music that sounded like Palestrina in one of my dreams but it was a lot more dissonant...
Thirds and sixths are common for me too, but also sevenths. I love sevenths and any chord that can be made from them. Many believe that sevenths sound unpleasant, but when used in the right context, they're not as dissonant as everyone makes them out to be. As a result, they pop up in my dreams quite often.

Total LDs: 10 | WILDs: 4 | DILDs: 5 | DEILDs: 2
"Take atheism, for example. Not a religion? Their pseudo-dogmatic will to convert others to their system of beliefs is eerily reminiscent of the very behavior they criticize in the religious."
I haven't had any sevenths in my dreams (although I think it sounds dream-like), but I have heard a melodic interval of an augmented fourth at the end of a night mare once.

I have experience music while entering and during a LD , it usually happens when I travel through a vortex . Its very peaceful ... I can't explain , I don't think I ever heard anything like it before, but if i have to put it in words I would say sound like wing bells or harp that's the closest i can think of.
