The ancient Greeks called it "harmony of the spheres." The Baroques called it "the Doctrine of affections." Nothing really new here, except the ability for testing with electronic gadgets.

There's a tongue-in-cheek but somewhat disturbing short story on this theme by Arthur C. Clarke called "The Ultimate Melody". It's one of his Harry Purvis stories and was published as part of the collection "Tales from the White Hart".
