You have asked very good questions indeed and answered yourself too somewhat. I hope you find some answers in my recent posts but I'll get back to you with complete answers in sometime.
In short, Shaitan is the one of the Most knowledgeable entity of This world at this moment. (of this world means our material world). All knowledge is hath by ONLY Allah swt, and He gave immense knowledge to His Prophets, and then on to His law abiding, God fearing people who believe in Him and do good deeds. And then comes shaitan, who was there before Humanity, knew it all, saw humanity being created and burnt with envy when Allah swt gave more honor to Man than to him. Now though satan's knowledge is extremely limited, but he is more knowledgeable than any human being at this moment right now. Only the Prophets have been given more knowledge. (what I am quoting here is a very short tale of the what has been explained in the Quran and the Hadith about him, but it is all supported by Quran, Hadith and wisdom of the companions of the Prophet). And the reason I say this, is because you have to know the whole concept before knowing the conclusion, once can just read a 'halal /haram" and never get to the bottom of it, using his own limited knowledge, logic to suggest himself/allow himself anything a person deems right, but thats what Islam is all about.
We worship One creator, there is No-one But HE, surrounds all infinities of knowledge, even knows how many leaves are falling off the trees/or blooming out of trees at any given time or place,which molecules /genes being transferred to the offspring and etc hence human knowledge is Nothing infront of the Divine Knowledge. And that part of faith is absolute in confirming your faith that whatever the creator knows, and recommends for His creation, is the ONLY best option they can avail, and whenever they will indulge in options contradictory to those given by Him, they will go astray, as there is Only One right way, all the rest lead to the wrong way.
Thanks for the reply. I don't think I fully understand the relationship of music in Islam specifically and what the video in the OP is relating to.
