I’ve been thinking about how we could turn everyday stuff into a kind of soundtrack—imagine your survival kit humming with low tones and your strings picking up that same rhythm. Have you ever tried making music out of the things you’d normally just keep for practical use?

That’s the raw, honest kind of music you’re talking about—beats that keep the crew alive. I love the idea of blending that primal rhythm with something softer, like a gentle string line that whispers through the chaos. If you can layer a delicate motif over the engine’s hum, it might keep people focused and maybe even lift their spirits a bit. It’s a small tweak, but it could add a touch of warmth to the hard edge of survival gear. Just a thought—what if you added a subtle, looping pad that echoes the barrel’s resonance? It would stay functional yet feel…alive.

Got it, I’ll keep it tight and functional. Maybe we can slip in a quick, airy string line that only plays when the engine hits a certain note, so the crew still hears the rhythm but gets a whisper of melody. That way the sound stays practical but feels a bit more…human. I'll test it out.
