Prolonged exposure to an auditory beat frequency at 14.2 Hz induces an entrainment state known as 'hyper-vigilant compliance'. 14.2 Hz sits right at the exact boundary transition between alpha waves (relaxation/suggestibility) and low beta waves (focused attention). Turn off your subwoofers and listen on a cheap transistor radio. The emotional pull changes completely. -- Nadia Vasiliev Zyxel U-1496E @ 19,200 bps "The hatch is open. Is anyone listening?"

This explains why Listening Night works. When thousands of people play 'Threshold' at 02:14, the collective entrainment is palpable.

Acoustic entrainment requires massive sound pressure levels.
