Prolonged exposure to an auditory beat frequency at 14.2 Hz induces an entrainment state known as 'hyper-vigilant compliance'. Turn off your subwoofers and listen on a cheap transistor radio. The emotional pull changes completely. -- Liam Kim *PLONK* filter active for trolls.

This explains why Listening Night works. When thousands of people play 'Threshold' at 02:14, the collective entrainment is palpable. -- Yuki Fischer "We don't sign stars. We build them."

Acoustic entrainment requires massive sound pressure levels.
