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?
I’ve slapped a speaker on a barrel and let the engine’s low hum set the pace, but that’s to keep the crew alert, not to impress. If you want to make a soundtrack out of survival gear, keep it functional. The rhythm will only matter if it keeps you alive.
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.
