Elements of truth in much of this. Choose with care. In most cases, my guess is that the music hasn’t changed. Your perception has.

it is true you are right that our perception of music can modify his effect...

But if you confuse bias with the physical properties of each music whose effects can be "measured" by cymatics for example or statistical studies on the body zones of different music , you miss all the knowledge about music therapy...

Music can change our perception, refine them elevate them or the opposite...

This is not reducible to subjective biases or placebo...

 If you are anxious try this mantra for thirty minute and you will not need anti depressant today but to test it you must be already anxious if not you will post here that this repetite mantra is dull 😁

Monroe Institute is real deal.  Tones alone worked for me-not imbedded in music.  Long story distilled down…@14 years ago I suffered a reactivation of Epstein-Barr virus.  Auto immune response demyelinated peripheral nerves in legs and feet.  I was diagnosed as “post viral syndrome “.  Extreme fatigue, hyper reactive muscles, neuropathys…doc’s won’t see you for this, so 2 years of med research on my part showed that part of the damage is over active amygdala in my brain.  How to “quiet” down your amygdala?  Partly thru the use of hemi-sync tones.  Helped greatly.  My background of 30+years of acute/critical care helped me digest a lot of dense clinical info.  Also gave me a realistic view of the level of health care available if you have something uncommon—you’re on your own.   This is a very very distilled down description.  As always, your mileage may vary.  

I participate in a Forum dedicated to the BBC Radio 3.  I actually don’t listen to Radio 3 much, as I have other favorite Internet Radio stations, but the regular posters are very knowledgeable about Classical Music and an interesting mix.  Anyway they are concerned about the proliferation of ‘mindffullness’ programming, what sounds to be spa music accompanied by some breathing coach.

   For years Classical Music has been used in stressful areas such as Chemotherapy waiting rooms.  Given how stressed out everyone is it seems that the programmers in search of ad revenue have taken the next step.
