What can I say, at first it feels like a McDonald's bathroom, then a hole in a McDonald's bathroom, then Alvin sounds like a man talking to me from a speaker in a mental asylum (trust me, I know what those sound like), and finally he morphs into a streamer getting interrupted by PSN notification sounds. Over and over, until Alvin turns into the thing he created: The PSN notification sound itself.

Thankfully, he transcends it, and become a makeshift startup melody. Such a beautiful story.
