The audio track titled "Radioactive" by Wafae Lahmidi from 2020, begins with a resonating hum, akin to the eerie, omnipresent drone of a distant machinery in operation. This low frequency sound gradually gains prominence and seems to give the impression of an unseen, radioactive energy pulsating in the background. As the audio progresses, the strange, otherworldly sound effects become more frequent and intense. The rhythmic pattern of these sound effects mimics the fluctuating energy levels of a radioactive source, thus, lending an uncanny feel to the composition. The listener can almost sense the invisible radiations permeating the surroundings. The audio track has a unique, unconventional texture. It does not follow the typical sequence of musical notes, but rather, it relies on the power of sound effects to create an immersive experience. The sharp, crackling noises scattered intermittently throughout the audio track are reminiscent of a Geiger counter detecting radiation levels,
