A member of the Research group, Brian Knave, read the page which deals with music on the site. On that page you can read about material that states that the Annunaki would have introduced the 8-notes-scale we are very familiar with. The original Sirius seeding would have had a 9-notes scale. This 9-notes per octave is said to still be found in places like Tibet, Asia and India.
Brian writes:
"But I must say, in general I find the SSOA stuff to be pretty difficult to wade through, what with the endless talk of levels, veils, parallel universes, karmic patterns, vibudi, primal goo, and so on. More specifically, I don't know what to make of the piece on music. I studied Indian music--formally and with some of the best Indian musicians on the planet, including Ali Akbar Khan and Zakir Hussain--and I can tell you that it's simply not true that East Indian music utilizes a 9-note scale. So when I read stuff like that, I can only shake my head and wonder what other misapprehensions might be contained in the voluminous output of Mila and Oa.
The idea of a 10-note scale is intriguing, and I look forward to having my studio back together so I can experiment with such a tuning. But both musically and mathematically, I cannot imagine how it would work out. Yes, it's do-able; the octave can be divided any way one wishes to divide it, and many cutting-edge modernist composers have experimented at great length with all manner of alternative tunings--often called microtunings--and divisions of the scale. (Most of it sounds abominable, btw.) But how such a 10-note scale could produce two "pivot" points, and why this is so critical, is beyond me. Moreover, what is one to make of Enya and Yanni being cited as examples of musicians who have "brought through the rotation of nature at 12 strands along with 1024 strands and higher as nature has begun to evolve through ascension"? If that is the case, may God help us all!"
...Of course, I follow the argument, to an extent, that country-music lyrics can be a real downer, and that singing along with "love gone wrong" songs might well lead to a "love gone wrong" situation in one's own life. But is it really that simple? I know in my case it seemed the opposite: I began writing songs as a way to cope with a great love gone wrong (before that I was the eternal optimist), and they came out sounding country in part because it's a musical style which for some reason is well-suited to dealing with issues of loss (just as reggae is good for dealing with social-justic issues). Of course, they also came out that way because that was the musical culture I was born into.
Still, it seems like such a gross oversimplification. After all, there are many uplifting and hope-inspiring country songs, and certainly the themes of loss and love gone wrong are not confined to country music alone. Indeed, many of the Indian lyrics I learned had the same theme, as do countless songs from jazz, blues, rock, reggae, techno, heavy metal, you name it. I mean, isn't loss an unavoidable part of any earthly life, given that we are forced to experience life one moment at a time, and that each of those moments must necessarily give way to the next?
There is also some confusion presented by the claim that our current music is based on an 8-note scale. In truth, it is based on a 12-note scale (chromatic) from which derive the 7-note (diatonic) scales we are all so familiar with. So really, given that there is so much inaccurate information in that one essay alone, I can't help but wonder how riddled the rest of the material is with inaccuracies.

I would like to ask everyone who has something to say about this idea of a 9-note-scale and it being more prevalent in the continent of Asia to mail me at the address below. Perhaps there are still some places in India or Tibet that do use this scale. I'm curious to find out more about this octave-division thing.
About the possible effects of lyrics: I guess that as soon as you have reached a certain level in your ascension process, your thoughts tend to get more powerful. When your thoughts are more powerful in the sense that when you think of certain things, these things are more likely to enter your world, then before you started your ascension process (see 'Intuitive Body' for more on this idea that you would more easily manifest what you intend on manifesting when you make progress in your personal ascension process), you carry a greater responsibility.
It is even said that when you read certain books, or watch certain movies, you are more likely to trigger some karmic theme that is covered somewhere in your ancestry. If you focus a lot on love-gone-wrong-situations, it would indeed make it more likely for such an event to occur. If you still have karma to work through dealing with issues that you listen to, read or watch, then I guess it might even help you address such themes. But I think the idea is that you are swayed from one theme into the next without knowing what you are focussing on really. It would perhaps be more wise to be aware of the theme you would like to address, or perhaps even better, wait for your soul to present you with the themes that need clearing in the best order.
But what about inspiring lyrics of joy and happiness, like in this song from the Beatles?
"I need to laugh and when the sun is out
I've got something I can laugh about
I feel good in a special way
I'm in love and it's a sunny day"

I have noticed that often when I feel lousy and I start to sing this song, I turn more joyful. like some magic formula.
Well, to round off this topic, I think that if you are serious about an attempt to ascend as far as you can, you should pay attention to what you allow yourself to think. If you watch a lot of TV filled with disaster movies or fear news it might influence you. If you listen to 'love-gone-wrong' songs or 'love-gone right'-songs every day, it might influence you. It might be something to become more aware of. The idea to listen to songs in a language you don't understand is a way to listen to music without having to worry about the possibility of activating some karma or mood you don't really need or want to activate.
But then again, this all goes more for the ones who really want to ascend. Perhaps read this article from the Australian Linda Johnson: 'Ascending in the Real world'.
