The human brain processes speech and melody differently, with the left hemisphere predominantly processing temporal features and the right hemisphere processing spectral features. This asymmetric processing raises questions about the underlying neural dynamics of acoustic feature encoding for speech and music. To further investigate this, we recorded intracranial EEG data from seventeen epileptic patients with implants in primary and associative auditory cortical regions. We utilized a stimulus set comprising one hundred a cappella songs, each presented in three versions: temporally degraded,
