Music and machines have traded acoustic effects both ways

Evidence

Throughout the history of soundmaking, music and the environment have bequeathed numerous effects to one another, and the modern era provides striking examples. For instance, while the internal combustion engine gave music the long line of low-information sound, music gave the automobile industry the pitched horn, tuned (in North America) to the major or minor third. — Schafer, Murray R, The Soundscape- Our Sonic Environment…, 405
