Brains that are processing the same information show similar properties when measured? That doesn't sound surprising.

> Neural waves in certain brain regions of people listening to a musical performance match those of the performer—the greater the synchrony, the greater the enjoyment.

This specific case doesn't seem unexpected either. Unless the same experiment is conducted with an artificial performer (with sufficiently believable human-like properties), and no such sychoronization (with data from the time of recording) occurs.

The article didn't seem to cover any of that. Hopefully it is somewhere in the original research.
