    I am in Castle Rock CO. I can hear it night and day. I go to job sites away from city areas, and if I go to the bathroom, or sit in my car, there it is. I am a musician. I can hear "it's" mechanical pace. It's a single unit machine, not a collection of industrial hoo-haa. It can be heard everywhere. This thing is HUGE! And it's underground, either in a concrete room, or direct anchor to the earth somehow. It resonates through the entire planet. I'm freaking out because I guarantee you someone knows what this is, and it ain't no good thing.

    I have been hearing this on and off for over 25 years. It is NOT electrical. I used to live in the middle of nowhere north of Ullapool Scotland and it drove me mental at times, even when there were power cuts and in winter that was fairly regular. Visitors would comment on it. It seemed to be dependent on wind direction, N.E. or no wind and it was, and still is more a constant low low 'feeling' sound. I live now in West Yorkshire near a big city and at times I can still hear it. It is real.
    P.S. I have tinnitus. I know what tinnitus is. I know what my tinnitus does. The hum is NOT tinnitus.

    My house thrums sometimes. It makes my skin crawl and my muscles start getting tight and twitch. My head feels like it is expanding and it gets to where I feel like I can't breath right. My ribs start to hurt. It feels like impending doom. My partner doesn't feel or hear it until it gets strong enough that it actually vibrates the bed at night. Sometimes it gets to the point the bed shakes, like a washer in the next room, or the cat scratching itself on the end of the bed. Mostly at night, but sometimes during the day as well. I have lived next to railroads, power substations, mills, highways. I've never had this happen before I moved into this house almost exactly a year ago.
    Edit: I've had tinnitus all my life, it's never shook my bed like this. I've lived in several different houses in this same town over the last 18 years, even a few blocks down the road, never had this. I'm from the coast originally, never had this. The lady reporting this saying it's something she should embrace makes me angry because she obviously doesn't know what people go through with this

I notice it more when it happens at night because I'm laying down still, but I've noticed it during the day as well. I'll start getting a very uncomfortable, almost electric type feeling. My skin feelings crawly and my muscles feel kind of tight. I feel a pressure in my head and disoriented. Then I'll feel a slight vibration, and it builds until it its actually shaking the bed like a washing machine. My partner isn't sensitive to it, but even he notices when it gets to this point. But then it builds past that, into a thrum I can hear in the back of my head and I feel in my whole body. It is kind of like sitting in a car with a a huge subwoofer, that deep bass feeling that I can feel in my head and chest, but constant and without the sound. Sometimes it goes on for hours and sometimes a few minutes, and I can feel it even if I get out of bed and try to go do something else. I've even been able to measure it with an app that detects frequencies of sound and vibration, but I can't figure out what it is our exactly where it's coming from

    I've heard it off and on since I was a kid, I'm 37 now. In fact I'm hearing it now. The first time I noticed it I was reading in my bed. Just like they said, it sounds almost like a distant diesel engine, but not quite. Growing up we lived in the country and our road was seldom traveled. Anyway, I poked my head outside and never saw a truck. It comes and goes. You hear it most often when you're inside, but not always. Since there is more background noise outside it tends to drown it out. It doesn't matter if the master breaker is off, I'll still hear it. Anyway, those of you who also hear it, you're not alone.
    P.S., I'm in Missouri, USA, not Bristol.

But 5G is being developed as a microwve weapon. Having or not having a gun is meaningless when they can target crowds and individuals with the heat of a microwave and with radiation of 5G. thinking the many towers that have been installed all over the country.

The notes clash like discordant harmonies causing pulse effects. The houses amplify the sound like a bass box.

    I’m in Leicestershire UK.. I have been hearing this humming for over 2 years.. sounds like a plane overhead but continues for hours, starts about 10 o’clock at night. I thought it was the heating from a nursing home opposite my home until I stayed overnight at 2 different places and it started there as well..it’s definitely not in my head!

    People that can hear it should start recording the exact times they do hear it. That way you could later compare the notes. If it's an outside phenomena you would see the times lines up but if it's just an individual thing, tinnitus or alike the times would just be random.
    I have had this myself from time to time, I could only hear it with one ear which would lead me to think it's just something wrong with my ear. But it also changes depending on what room I'm in which leads me to think that there really is a noise... Drives me nuts that figure out where it is coming from.

But it is 50-80hz. Bass tone. But this audible ton has under a big, hard infra sound, that is, what we can feel as vibration in our body. This is coming from the soil. Soil frequentie is 7.8hz our body too. What have you big energetic industry in your area? Solar power, oil pump, gas reservoar, turbina, wind turbina? Or new high speed railway, ? We have this all. It is always waving, then louder then lovered, always changing. I think there is changing or pressure of oil, gas, water or voltage in solar power. And there is or trafoe or turbina what is controlling the pressure. Always turned on or out. Every few second or minits.

I have been out driving at night and stopping in various locations to try and find the source of the hum, but to no avail. It used to keep me awake all the time, but Ive got somewhat used to it, although it does occasionally wake me up.

    I live in Northern California and have been hearing it for over twenty years now. I live in a very hilly region about twenty miles from the Pacific coast. It can be steady or slow throbbing and is always the same narrow frequency around 200 to 400 Hz. I use earplugs or run a fan in my house which masks it enough to not notice it. I have I always had extremely sensitive hearing but It can be heard by others especially at the pre dawn hours. No directionality but intensity varies mildly at times. Since I first noticed it the insect population has almost vanished in my Forrest location. Called UC Davis entomology and they pretty much gave me the old run around as to source possibility and
    was told it was nothing. In a few weeks I had 10 young people with handheld digital analyzers roving my location. Was not given even a plausible reason for them being there or what they were measuring. There is no true silence left my old friend has been corrupted. I now know what Simon and Garfunkel were really saying. Makes meditation impossible along with solace of silence. I used to hear the insects in a mass of buzzing but they are gone. Seems like natures buzzing song has turned into a painful droning moan.

    It *could* be the Schumman resonance which *could* be converted to a pressure wave by virtue of all the bizarre piezoelectric components that are in the body e.g. calcite, bones and who knows what else. It's a pretty low amplitude signal but people can get exceptionally good at perceiving low amplitude signals (i.e. developing a sensitivity) for many different reasons.

    I live in Kansas, USA, and started hearing the Hum in 2009. It's interesting that there are some in Bristol who also began hearing the Hum in 2009. I have extremely good hearing, all frequencies. The Hum is not heard constantly. It comes on slowly , then all of a sudden there is the realization it's there. It lasts for 8-10 seconds, then stops as if a switch has been thrown. Then five or so seconds later, begins again for about the same duration, on on and on. I believe it may be due to my body resonating from some external sound wave. Mostly heard in the evening, but not always. Lately, the vibrations have been more ear-piercing. I noticed the other day, several birds had suddenly flown into my office window (2nd floor); a rare occurence. It is definately not tinnitus. Well-meaning individuals attempt to offer explanations, but until one experiences The Hum personally, no one has a clue what it is like.

    It's kind of crazy that this sort of thing is still being debated, it is possible to work out what frequency people are hearing if the suffer from tinitus or high sensitivity to high or low frequencies. Noise cancellation works by playing an inverted waveform, when the frequency matches what you can hear it literally cancels out the noise, not entirely but still usually to the point it becomes undetectable if theres any other noise around. I have tinitus, I'm sensitive to EM from wiring, cathode tubes, transformers, etc. Sometimes I get a phantom noise that doesn't seem to have any obvious cause, it usually lowers in loudness or detect-ability but I'm assuming my mind actually blocks it out, sometimes concentrating on the sound makes it louder. Also when it's very quiet I can hear blood or my heart going, or a rasp from fluid in my lungs or sinuses. Frankly theres so much noise out there I'm surprised everybody doesn't hear random crap constantly.

    Thoughts on The Hum
    ===================
    I am 60 years old, I've heard the Hum on and off for some 12 years. I live in Lincolnshire UK, Corby Glen originally and now Heckington. First time I experienced the Hum (2010) I was absolutely convinced someone had parked a diesel car or lorry somewhere close, but I couldn't understand why the noise continued for several days. My wife couldn't hear anything at all. I explored further and went down the street to listen to the local power sub-station, but it had a different sound and what I could hear was still audible with no change in volume. Out walking across the fields a couple of miles away from my house and still hear it. I wondered if it was heavy goods vehicles travelling along the A1 which was approx 6 miles away. I gave up searching. The Hum faded after a while (or I got used to it), but occasionally came back.
    Most recently I noticed it again in October 2022 and I still hear it right now Jan 2023. Wife cannot hear it. A constant very deep bass (34Hz) with a pulsating, throbbing or phasing effect which continuously varies between approx 5 times a second slowing to once every 2 or 3 seconds, speed seems to depend on time of day, faster in daytime, slower at evening or night. Could it be objective tinnitus (muscle contractions or pulse)?
    While this seems to originate in my ears, it also FEELS like a physical throbbing in my head. Lately I've had a cold/cough followed by Covid for the last 7-8 weeks, and with blocked sinuses and tiredness this has exacerbated the volume of the sound/feeling. However, I am positive the pulsating is quite unrelated to blood flow, heartbeat, etc.
    When I first noticed the hum I always thought it was an external sound. However over the years I believe this really is an internal experience. It could be a form of low frequency tinnitus (I definitely have whistling tinnitus), or it could be some other type of external source! By that I mean not an airborne audible sound, but induced by some other force.
    I wondered if it was electricity in my house, with the pulsations/phasing coming from the generators at the power station turbines, hydroelectric dam or whatever method is used and emanating from the cables in my walls, or perhaps from broadband router/wifi signals. So I tried turning off the power at the distribution board and was disappointed to hear the Hum continue unabated even with the power completely off, so guaranteeing no wifi, fridge/freezer/fan/central heating motors were running.
    I noticed in these comments quite a few musicians say they are sensitive to the Hum. While I doubt The Hum has anything against musicians, I think we musicians are more sensitive and inquisitive about music and sound generally.
    When I was a teenager a mate thought it would be funny to pop a very tightly wound balloon next to my ear, and this caused permanent damage was I'm sure one reason for my tinnitus - but an effect I noticed after that event was each ear detects a very slight difference in frequency. If I listen to music/notes and block one ear, then the other, the music is very slightly higher pitch comparing one ear to the other. I wonder if this pitch inequality could be a reason for how I perceive the pulsating effect of the Hum?
    I don't think its tectonic plate movements suggested by some as surely that would be momentary. What I experience is 24x7 for 3 months. In line with many people it's more noticeable indoors due to the relative quiet, and if I step outside it is overpowered by natural sounds, wind, trees, traffic, birds, etc, but if I focus I know its still there.
    Other things I've researched; earths magnetic fields, gravity somehow affecting your internal senses. Many birds/animals/insects can navigate by polar alignment. Perhaps some people are sensitive somehow?
    I have used binaural beats for brain training,relaxation, meditation, and the tones/modulation of that are similar to some of the effects of The Hum, but the Hum sounds much much deeper to me.
    One interesting thing about binaural tones is the Schumann frequencies, of which the average fundamental frequency is 7.83Hz. Schumann Resonance ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schumann_resonances ) is an extra-low frequency (ELF) phenomena generated by Planet Earth (and other planets). Around the planet there are aproximately 2000 thunderstorms occurring at any given time, which equates to approximately 50 lightning strikes every second! This energises the region between earths surface and up towards space about 100km into the ionosphere creating electromagnetic waves that resonate within and travel around the circumference of this earth-ionosphere waveguide with a base wavelength derived from the radius of the earth and the speed of light. This equates to a base frequency of 7.83Hz, and then weakening harmonics appear depending on the number of reflections (1,2,3,4,etc) from the ceiling of the ionosphere increasing by ~6.5Hz for each harmonic. Note that Schumann resonance is not a constant exact 7.83Hz, there are many factors that make it vary throughout the day/night, location and seasons, solar activity and so on (many binaural tone videos on RUclips portray it as an exact unchanging tone whereas I feel it is an ever changing more subtle, natural and pleasing phenomena). These fundamental frequencies have affected life on earth for millions of years, and coincide roughly with the rates of brainwave activity in living organisms (Delta, Theta, Alpha, Beta and Gamma).

    And the following research;
    www.researchgate.net/publication/281316806_Schumann_Resonance_and_Brain_Waves_A_Quantum_Description
    What does The Hum sound like?
    I came across a very interesting article about "neurofeedback":-
    asa.scitation.org/doi/10.1121/10.0011549
    Neurofeedback is where an Electroencephalograph (EEG) reads brain activity and converts neural signals into sound sequences, with the constraint that the sound sequences precisely reflect the sequences of events in the neural signal. The method consists in quantifying the wave motifs in the signal and using these parameters to generate sound envelopes.
    The EEG is recorded and filtered, and the resulting signal is convolved with sound kernels to yield audible sound sequences, which are replayed in real-time to the person having the EEG who by modulating their own brain-rhythm, is therefore able to modulate the sound and produce relaxation. This procedure is today at the basis of several commercial systems to help subjects to relax. The article provides a couple of MP3 sound samples that demonstrate what Delta (sleep) brain waves "sound like". I was intrigued to listen, because allowing for the fact it is an electronic synthesis and therefore sounds a bit too musical, it sounds remarkably like the sound of The Hum inside my head in terms of the rhythmic pulsing changes, albeit far higher in pitch than the deep hum sensation I experience and where the speed of changes I hear is more rapid, more in line with Theta brainwaves.
    I seem unable to pinpoint The Hum to a specific geographical location even on travelling far; Therefore where I go the Hum goes! I do not think what I hear is created by any man-made machinery. And I suspect it is on such a scale that what creates the sound inside me will be experienced whereever on Earth I go. I have the notion that for some reason I have a sensitivity to experience my brainwaves being affected by Schumann resonance. Maybe this is rather fanciful and its simply a form of tinnitus? I've tried to think logically and objectively but I'm yet to reach a conclusion!
    Anyway I thought you good people might find this thought-provoking and have your own ideas on The Hum?

    I live near Metro Detroit and the magnitude of humming is maddening, it became very noticeable about a year ago, and my awareness to it has grown week by week, especially at night when trying to sleep. It’s 9:00 AM now as I write this message and try to work from home, but it’s so loud, I’m resorting to using music to attempt to hide it. I’ve walked all over the neighborhood some nights trying to pinpoint just a direction of the source, but it’s too difficult.
    The only thing I’ve concluded recently was that during the peak lockdown months from Covid-19 virus, (April - July), the Hum had stopped, this leads me to believe it’s likely a man made sound. It started again here around late August, and it seems back to full strength. It’s like a distant bull dozer is always operating, droning on and on, occasionally pulsing and changing slightly. I fear this noise is going to drive me to move somewhere else. Frustrating because it’s so loud to me, but I can’t get anyone else to even hear it. I wonder what equipment I need in order to detect this frequency and record the Sound pressure level, it must be powerful and extremely low Hz.

    I heard the hum for the first time last night and it freaked me out. It wasn't tinnitus because it did get quieter as I closed the windows, but it did still seem to vibrate right through me. At first I thought it was a helicopter or some kind of engine but it kept going, fading out and coming back with a pulsing noise. I was disturbed to search "low vibrating noise in (my area)" and came across this phenomenon which perfectly described what I was hearing. I'm a scientist so usually my attitude is that everything has an explanation but I'd never heard anything like this before and it honestly scared me. Outside I couldn't locate its source but it was definitely not originating from my inner ear as it got quieter as I plugged my ears.

I have tinnitus but this is not the same. Tinnitus sounds like it is in your head, this hum seems to come from some undetectable other location.

      Have you been referred to an audiologist? Also look into a condition called venous hum (not the band).

      To me that sounds like you might have tinnitus. It's basically a phantom sound that you can hear but that doesn't exist outside your head. For some people, this can be like a whistling sound, for others it can be more like a wooshing sound. There's nothing wrong with tinnitus directly (although it can be an indicator of other problems, but if you've been checked by an audiologist then don't worry), except from the fact that it can be really annoying. Lots of people get it at times, but maybe aren't all that aware of it. I get it when I'm in quiet rooms.
      Basically all you can do, I'm afraid, is try to ignore it. Putting on some music quietly in the background can help, and you also get devices called tinnitus maskers which are designed to help you ignore it. They work better for some people than others, but they're just speakers (or phone apps) that give off a similar wooshing noise, but it can be comforting because you know it's a real noise, not one inside your head.
      Hope some of that helps. If you've got any questions, feel free to ask :)
      (I should say that I vaguely work in hearing, but I'm certainly not an expert on tinnitus.)

    Ive been hearing this hum, as described here, for months now. Ive tried to locate source but as mentioned it is omnipresent. I can now sleep through it but it is irritating. As a scientifically minded person the duration, pulsing and frequency of the hum is baffling. This inability to source the noise is its biggest annoyance.

      Only with measuring case can you locating. And only at nigt at 3. But never go alone, the energetic industry maffia is hard.

    My experience was from the electromanatic wave sound from the electrical pole sub-junction box that was placed below the pole. I was about 3 meters away when i heard that Hum sound for quite a while. Potential over loading of current flow could be a under lying factor.

    I hear low-frequency humming sound here in UK more noticeable at night. It's been going on about 7-8 months. I have been looking to buy a noise detector. I may have to report this to Manchester city council. Sounds like a subwoofer, its level fluctuates.
