Any person who’s called a company or office has been through this scenario: You’re calling to speak with someone in a department or make an appointment. You may go through several menu options or, if you’re lucky, you spoke with a person who received your call. Suddenly, after punching in the last option or finishing your sentence, you may hear the line click and then a voice say, “Please stay on the line while your call is being transferred…” That blasted music starts playing. You can either stay on the line or hang up.

For this week’s episode, I posited the following question on TwiX and in the Discord channel: What VGM track would you like to hear while on hold? We’re going to listen to many submissions to this question, along with some covers and remixes that could also be hold music.

I hope you’ll enjoy them and consider, if you may, what VGM tracks you’d like to hear while waiting on the line…
