I was part of a huge study on this. It lasted years, using some very cutting edge organic chemists and extremely powerful electronics. Our conclusions were identical to the above findings

Someone out there is probably already working on some way to connect low frequency sounds to the Dancing Plagues of Europe in the hopes of getting a low-grade publication and/or TV segment and/or book deal. (Aliens? Weather patterns? Tectonic effects? Architectural trends? One of 'em will sell.)

When we rehearse and the choral director asks the basses to do a section on their own, sometimes I swear she does it not because they need the help but because you can actually see everyone slightly melt when they hit the lowest notes. There’s just something about that deep, deep bass tone that hits you at the core of your being.
