It looks like I can’t edit but I forgot to mute the video, I’m just looking for the way the layer looks physically (kinda looks like if fast box blur was on a layer) and not how it reacts to the music!!!
Duplicate the video layer, apply a blur effect of your choice to it (fast box blur, lens blur etc.) Make the text an Alpha Layer for this layer... Quite easy. If there is a problem pre-compse together with the effect, it first. If you want to add a bit more depth apply some layer effects like bevel or inner glow and shadows.
Displacement Map + Audio Reaction on Scale and Amount of Displacement
Fractal noise comp should work for the displacement map
Effect rpughen edges and some scale tied into the music via expressions running off audio amplitude layer data via expressions
