400 followers, guess I gotta do one of these things: 1 like= 1 favorite “nonmusical” sound
1. Crackling fire
2. The rhythmic glugging when you pour water out of a plastic jug
3. The scrape of a match struck on the box, followed by fizzy flowering of flame
4. The wobble-warp of sheet metal
5. A treeful of leaves swayed by wind
6. Spinning a quarter on a table
7. Pulling a cork out of a wine bottle. They say “popping a cork,” but it sounds more like “plunking a cork”.
8. There’s a copier at work that makes a “Mars”-like tritone. Musical, but incidentally so. Damnedest thing.
9. Hitting a tin soda can with a .22 round
10. Swish shot on a basketball hoop with a chain net
11. Werner Herzog’s voice in general, but the way he says “jungle” in particular
12. Film projectors
13. Rotary telephones
