Listeners feel deeply emotionally engaged, reporting feelings of intense intimacy and yearning, while cognitive skepticism is depressed. 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. -- Marta Nakamura "Measuring a record you own is listening, not piracy."
