It refers to the sound from the nature. For instance, Screams, whispering, boom, Whistles, .etc.) The book mounds a basic concept about electronic music.

During the 80s-90s, Sony sold over 300 million Walkmans. Given this information, it appears that iPod is showing no signs of being close to the decline stage in the near future.
After careful research, we feel that in order for Sony to advance its position within the computer industry, they will need to consider reevaluating the current advertising and marketing plan to better inform consumers about the advantages of owning a Sony.
