It is mentioned that city dwellers have difficulty sleeping in the silence of country houses, needing a lullaby. However, the situation in rural areas is not always peaceful either; in the mornings, street sweepers and wind machines start up, and during festivals, such as San Inazio, machines to clean the bullring and air cannons are used. Furthermore, the comings and goings of the Maverick serve as a wake-up call, even if there is no space for bars nearby. It is requested not to throw glass before ten o'clock, due to the noise.
The author mentions their own musical selection, acknowledging that the volume might not be to the neighbors' liking. The hum of the dryer is also mentioned, but it is stated that nothing compares to the sound of a child drumming upstairs, especially before or after San Sebastian, when the town hall's loudspeakers announce the carnivals. It is also mentioned that the sons of the previous accordion player are learning to play the instrument, and that until they learn well, the accordion is noise.

Although not an accordionist, an unpleasant trumpeter and a carrot head are mentioned as noise creators. While Epstein's papers were circulating, Trump announced he would release other documents about extraterrestrial life. Unidentified Flying Objects, those of Mulder and Scully, so to speak. Nun farts without decibels are mentioned, which, although not heard, are smelled. The stench of dog food is also described as a great noise. The dismissal of five workers for organizing union elections in defense of the labor rights of Elmubas employees is denounced as a scandal. It is criticized that issues such as dignified working conditions, fake flag graffiti, and the right to housing, instead of being debated, are hidden under the carpet by creating noise.
On the 50th anniversary of the March 3rd massacre, the newspaper Correo from Vitoria-Gasteiz, which once applauded the Glorious National Uprising, has conducted special interviews. And on Sundays, the newspapers' prime-time day, those who did little for the memory of the five murdered workers, such as the mayor from the PSOE, the provincial deputy from the PNV, and the bishop close to Opus Dei, have once again claimed that political adversaries are instrumentalizing what happened on that March 3, 1976. To represent the former Living Forces, all that was missing was an interview with the head of the Armed Police who ordered the shooting of workers fleeing from smoke bombs inside the church of Zaramaga. Or with Rodolfo Martín Villa, minister of Labor Relations during the dictatorship and the main person responsible for the killings. Now that is instrumentalization. Now that is noise!
