Comment on Why you hear voices in your white noise machine

Sometimes it’s music, like a full orchestral score

For me it's usually something like a full orchestra. I assume that is because our brains are already trained on the erratic arrangements and multitude of different sounds of a real orchestra - it pattern matches the noise better than say smooth jazz.

could also be that orchestral music is usually recorded or listened to at a larger distance than other genres
