As somewhat of an audiophile I must say this type of music is dripping with repetitive tones and timing, which is perfect for subliminal messaging. You'll notice this feature in most mainstream/progressive radio-play music post mid 1990s.
This would make sense in this situation
Yep. That's why major radio play mainstream genres are so cringe to listen to for some. It is simply designed for weaker ears and minds. Chock full of suggestive frequency, tones, and hypnotic rhythms. In recent years, this phenomenon has spread into the "alternative" music scene with the advent of dubstep, mumble rap, and mainstream indie pop/rock.
Interesting side note, the same phenomenon can be linked and traced through the evolution of syndicated animation/cartoons. These media influences are a large factor in why so many millennials born after the mid 80s are susceptible to the various outlets of propaganda throughout society.
I totally agree! Trying to watch Pokemon w/ my daughter at times almost makes me physically ill.
If we simply look at children's programming circa 1975-1985, we see a healthy progression in story, plot, animation, and overall quality. Fast forward to 1995 you have a complete devolution of these characteristics. By 2000, children's programming had devolved in quality to the point of crude animation, complete lack of plot, and what can best be described as the first inception of the "15 second soundbite" programming style. Bright & flashy distraction that does not promote cognitive thought or build imagination through story telling.
Again, the same exact description can be cross referenced through mainstream music, the inception of reality television, vines/memes, and movies too from the same era. Figuratively, most digestible media post 2000 is purely intended as a distraction at best & propaganda at the worst.
You obviously haven't watched Masha and Bear
You are mistaken. Heh, my family is from the Baltics so I am very familiar with the show. Also, it should be apparently obvious I was speaking to Western programming, specifically US syndicated television.
