Ah, okay I understand the idea that you are going for. Hmm, in my experience I wouldn't say that the human mind finds it hard to follow two rhythms necessarily, just that the rhythms tend to be experienced simultaneously.
Sound is fluid, consisting of "pressure" waves that modulate a medium (which is everything). When you add two fields of sound together, it will blend them. Some songs together will sound like they have become one song. Others will often have such a degree of dissonance that the conscious mind becomes unable to concentrate which will actually make astral travel harder.
In general whether or not this would be beneficial for astral travel, I'd say no more than a single song. What is more important is the impression the sound has upon the listener, if it induces a state of relaxation which may allow the conscious mind to relax, thus allowing the body to relax.
It is more common to use "binaural" frequencies, or a stereo set up of harmonious frequencies, if you want to induce a particular state of consciousness, which is, of course, all astral traveling is.
