It doesn't have anything to do w/ music theory. Some people are
physically sensitive to it. Sometimes I find something out of key to be
painful. No shit. I heard a blind guy interviewed on NPR once who had to
listen to just-tempered instruments, because well-tempered ones were too
out of tune for him. Even then, he found some classical composers to be
discordant.
Personally, I find it to be a curse, especially since there are so many
tone-deaf people making techno. There are 3 tracks on Big Soup that I
can't listen to, so I think the question is valid.
