Gotta be a joke or a prank. Or... *panic emoticon here*
For some reason, it made me think of this movie...

Honestly, I didn't listen to much of it, but it wasn't pleasant, and art should be, at least for me. Not humorous to me, either, because it's so disturbing to people (even if they assign nothing weird to it), and a good joke shouldn't injure someone, even emotionally. That won't stop some from pulling such pranks, however. A bad joke isn't funny to any but the ones pulling it, but many still pull such jokes.
Another possibility is that this was done to see the reactions, for some sort of study. Either way, it's rather sick, in my opinion. The best way to diffuse that sort of thing is to call it out, and then refuse to let it bother you.

I am not sure what you mean by "calling it out", and if you didn't find it funny, I still can't understand why you call it a "joke"? Curious choice of word, is all.
Lots of art is aimed at stirring some uncomfortable feelings.... there is some who feel that there is some benefit to the catharsis of seeing our deepest abstract fears and repressed drives expressed through art. A sort of exorcism effect. Even for children (why fairytales always have scary or evil elements included).
I often think that teens and young adults, especially, like to experiment with art which challenges the current modes of feeling and thought that are socially acceptable.... which is sort of their "job" as adults, to effect change to culture.
When played at the right sound level, which is quite high and exciting, the tones in this music will cause your ears to act as neurophonic instruments that emit sounds that will seem to be issuing directly from your head ... (my audiences) discover they are producing a tonal dimension of the music which interacts melodically, rhythmically, and spatially with the tones in the room. Tones 'dance' in the immediate space of their body, around them like a sonic wrap, cascade inside ears, and out to space in front of their eyes ... Do not be alarmed! Your ears are not behaving strange or being damaged! ... these virtual tones are a natural and very real physical aspect of auditory perception, similar to the fusing of two images resulting in a third three dimensional image in binocular perception ... I want to release this music which is produced by the listener ..

Calling it out simply means pointing out that it wasn't some real broadcast, with some weird supernatural element. Calling it a joke is calling it what whoever set it up would call it. That it isn't funny to you and I doesn't mean it wasn't meant as a joke.
Why would it be anyone's job to change culture? Why the assumption that some change is needed?

Now you're changing the subject.
The Q was "Can You Make Sense of this Bizarre Recording?"
And I did it for you.

Frequencies over 30k is above our hearing, wales and dolphins communicate with high pitch sounds we cannot hear.
When you reach frequencies around 100 MegaHertz we talk radio.
Those are so high pitched that we will never hear them, also Wifi and such go up to 2-3Giga Hertz.
The earth resonates a 7.83 hertz, very low sub bass noise wich our minds filter out.
