Does anyone else have music playing in their mind (usually a song you heard before stuck in your head) and then rumble their ears to mimic the sound of bass to the mental music going on? I do this a lot

    I do! I also like to create my own beats and click my teeth and tongue for the snare and hats sounds. Superpower!

    Hahaha, so true! You can make up some insane beats and then try to replicate them later! I've written a bunch of songs this way!

    I do this all the time, except I rumble for bass, and click my eustachian tubes for a snare xD

    Awesome! Me too, but I use the tubes as like a crackly hi hat while clicking or rubbing my teeth! It's so cool that others can do this!!

    I get a click when I start rumbling and I use that. It's hard to keep timing with it though.

    Use the rumble to check syllabic flow 👌🏿. I have no idea why but when I need to talk without thinking I do this

    I've never done this before, so I just tried it to "Psycho Killer" by the Talking Heads.

    I got dizzy.

    Whoever can do this, can you recreate it in a way with dj/keyboard beats that we can hear and understand? That would be cool!

    I can't rumble without scrunching or squinting my eyes, so I'd look like I'm spazzing out if I did.
