× Actually, I prefer both because it depends on my mood.
✓ Actually, I prefer both because it depends on my mood.
No correction needed; sentence uses present simple appropriately to express a general preference and condition.
× When I'm happy, I would like to umm, listen to the upbeat songs, but when I feel like, uh, heartbreak or when I'm in a bad mood, I would like to listen to sad songs.
✓ When I'm happy, I like to listen to upbeat songs, but when I feel heartbroken or I'm in a bad mood, I like to listen to sad songs.
The original uses 'would like to' inconsistently for habitual preferences; for general habits use present simple ('I like to'). 'Feel like heartbreak' is incorrect; use adjective 'heartbroken'. Also drop the article before 'upbeat songs' when speaking generally.
× Yes definitely. I think happy music creates umm dopamine in me so that I can have a lot of energy to complete my task or have more energy to socialize with everyone in my life.
✓ Yes, definitely. I think happy music creates dopamine in me, so I have more energy to complete tasks or to socialize with people in my life.
Use present simple for general truths ('I think', 'creates'). 'Can have' is unnecessary; 'I have' is natural. 'Complete my task' should be pluralized to 'tasks' for general reference. 'Everyone in my life' is better as 'people in my life'.
× I think I cannot live without music, especially the happy 1.
✓ I think I cannot live without music, especially happy music.
Using 'the happy 1' is incorrect and informal. Replace with 'happy music'. The definite article 'the' is not needed when speaking generally.
× Yes, when I was a child, I was really extrovert and I, umm, take part in a lot of music classes from piano to the dance class.
✓ Yes, when I was a child, I was really extroverted and I took part in a lot of music classes, from piano to dance classes.
'Extrovert' is a noun; use adjective 'extroverted'. Past time 'when I was a child' requires past tense 'took part' not present 'take part'. Use plural 'dance classes' and remove unnecessary article.
× I was always like working with music because it boosts my energy and it helps me to make friends with a lot of, uh, interesting.
✓ I was always into working with music because it boosted my energy and helped me make friends with many interesting people.
'Was always like' is informal and ungrammatical; use 'was always into' or 'always liked'. Maintain past tense 'boosted' and 'helped' to match 'was'. 'Make friends with a lot of interesting' is incomplete; add 'people'.
× Yes, definitely, and it's a great way to like not get bored because there are a lot of housework like umm, doing washing the dishes or doing the laundry that is so boring.
✓ Yes, definitely, and it's a great way not to get bored because there is a lot of housework, like washing the dishes or doing the laundry, which is so boring.
Use infinitive 'not to get bored' rather than 'to like not get bored'. 'Housework' is uncountable, so use 'there is a lot of housework'. Correct verb forms: 'washing the dishes' and 'doing the laundry'. Use 'which is' to refer to the preceding activities.
× So I turn up my favorite songs and just stand and vibe with the song and it's become.
✓ So I turn up my favorite songs and just stand and vibe to the music, and it lifts my mood.
Ending 'it's become' is incomplete and ungrammatical. Replace with a complete result clause such as 'it lifts my mood' or 'it makes the chores more enjoyable'. Use 'vibe to the music' or 'vibe with the song' consistently.
