An atonal, cacophonous series of plucked strings with a timpani in the background to try and create a prickly feeling. Originally made to be used in a horror game I am working on.

This clip should loop nicely.

All the sounds are from FL Studio with an old version of Garritan Personal Orchestra plugin.
