Idle Machine

The audio track titled "Idle Machine" starts with the gentle hum of a machine at rest. The sound is steady, invoking an image of a large, complex device, perhaps in a factory or workshop, standing still but ready to burst into action. The audio captures the heartbeats of the machine, punctuating the calm with a rhythmic, metallic ticking sound. The distinct, echoing clinks and clanks of the machine's inner workings are also audible, evoking the image of gears and levers idling in perfect unison. Suddenly, there's a faint whooshing sound, like the release of steam or a sigh of a machine, adding an eerie undertone to the soundtrack. Intermittedly, the sound of a distant bell or alarm can be heard, reminding the listener of the industrial setting. The audio ends with the same steady hum with which it began, leaving behind a vivid image of an idle machine in the listener's mind.
