Alleges to have debunked it.
Looks like he's onto something, but just because the sound from the films War of the Worlds and Red State have been used in those particular videos, doesn't mean that
all the sounds are fakes. Actually I wasn't convinced by his comparison of sounds from War of the Worlds with sounds in the videos. However, with modern software and hardware synthesisers any and all of these sounds can be faked.
For example, in this short (1 min 12 sec)
YouTube video you can just make out, under the noise of the wind on the microphone, a constant deep hum which would be very easy to fake.

Yellowstone Park has 1,000 to 3,000 earthquakes each year. They’re small and are rarely felt, but the region is one of the most seismically active in the United States. Could metallic sounds be related to seismic activity?
The info on the
blog, posted by Keit, shows that these sounds have been heard for over 100 years. That suggests that at least some of these sounds are genuine.

i still feel that what the C's were saying about "gravity opening up" is a very strong clue, even though it sounds cryptic.

The approach of two charged globes towards each other could also produce trumpetlike sounds varying as the distance between them increased or lessened.(Theogony, 11 , 820 ff ., 852 ff.)
Are we seeing (and hearing) the effects of bodies in the inner solar system interacting electrically with the earth? We only know of near earth objects that the PTB choose to tell us about. Who knows how many of them there really are? For example, looking at
this page on the NEODyS site we can see 1228 numbered near-earth objects, and 7306 unnumbered objects. We don't know how near such bodies have to be to have a noticeable effect on our planet.
The upper atmosphere is being loaded with comet dust. Does this have electromagnetic properties? Does it facilitate the electromagnetic interaction of the earth with stellar bodies?
It is possible that each episode of the 'sky sounds' is related to or caused by the close passage of a body in space; or, at least, close enough to have an effect on the planet.
Here's the abstract of a
research paper that possibly bears some relation to the sky sounds:
A quantitative analysis of the effects of difference frequency, source separation, and crossing angle on the generated scattered difference frequency sound fields is presented to evaluate the feasibility of localized sound production using 2 uniform pistons. Nonlinear crossed beam experiments were also carried out in an anechoic chamber. Experimental results show that the audible sound could be generated within the interaction region defined by the overlap volume of 2 ultrasonic beams.
Note that the abstract above mentions sound in the audible range being generated by the intersection of two sources of ultrasonic sound. Could the same effect be generated by the intersection of two sources of infrasound?
I'm also reminded of some of the sound effects that can be generated by a ring modulator. Here's a snippet from Wikipedia on the subject:
Wikipedia said:
Ring modulation is a signal-processing effect in electronics, an implementation of amplitude modulation or frequency mixing, performed by multiplying two signals, where one is typically a sine-wave or another simple waveform. [ . . . ]
Operation
Ring modulators frequency mix or heterodyne two waveforms, and output the sum and difference of the frequencies present in each waveform. This process of ring modulation produces a signal rich in partials, suitable for producing bell-like or otherwise metallic sounds. As well, neither the carrier nor the incoming signal are prominent in the outputs, and ideally, not at all.
Here is a page describing earthquake sounds, with mp3 files that you can listen to, showing what a wide variety of sounds can be caused by earthquakes. However it should be remembered that these sounds have been compressed to make them audible to the human ear.
