Declassified neurophysiology studies from the late 70s hold the key to the Stardust carrier.

14.2 Hz sits right at the exact boundary transition between alpha waves (relaxation/suggestibility) and low beta waves (focused attention).
Prolonged exposure to an auditory beat frequency at 14.2 Hz induces an entrainment state known as 'hyper-vigilant compliance'.

Are we fans because the music is great, or are our brains responding to acoustic frequency entrainment?

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