Evidence behind theories about musical meter and rhythm is based on averages across empirical sets of data. Theory is also commonly forged from general observations of music practices. Ethnomusicology describes rhythm and dance based on patterning characterizations inside cultures. Without neglecting thevalue of that knowledge, so far we know very little about how individuals´ bodies respond to music. Derivation of common laws from controlled experimentation may have obfuscated the understanding of differences between individuals, their music, movements and dance. How large are these differences as expressed, and how our bodies map these idiosyncrasies are questions that still need answers. In this paper we carry out two case studies of individual involvement with music, bringing a detailed account of the peculiarities arising from their free movement responses to music. Using the state-of-the-art motioncapture technologies and a set of analytical techniques we describe the participant´s metric embodied experience, and the idiosyncratic differences in their responses to music.
