I’m thinking things like harp and marimba

Gong
Singing bowls / tibetan bowlsHang / Hand pan and Hurdy Gurdy!
All of them if you’re on enough LSD!
Organ i think, but it probably helps that it’s usually played in a big stony building (church).
The humble kalimba has some of the qualities I think you are describing. Also just a regular nylon string guitar.
I came in here all wrong. I was going to say a large office printer/copy machine has that thrum you feel, the rhythm of each page flipping and printing, and the smell of warm micro plastics.
- Steel drums do this for me
- Oboes
- some brass instruments (depends on the player…if they can achieve that crystal clear tone)
- Taiko ensembles!
- if live, mandolin, dulcimer, lute
Edit 1: The venue acoustics will also factor heavily too.
Edit 2: ooh! Didgeridoos! Also best if live.
The French horn, from someone who knows how to play it well.
