Ask HN : Music for boosting brain function, fake or real?

2 points by vizard ↗ HN
I came across a site called http://getimusic.com which claims to be selling music designed to boost concentration, memory etc. Claims to be designed by PhDs. Fake or real?

On a more general note, many music CDs on the market claim either to be relaxing or boosting brain function. Are there any scientific studies that prove/disprove their claims?

Are you sure you linked to the right site? http://GetMusic.com seems to be a generic ringtone-purchase site. I don't see anything about music designed to boost concentration or memory.
