Yeah, we've heard them here. I've got video somewhere that Grace made, in the spring of 2015 I think, that has the noises on them. The ones we heard here were not constant, they were intermittent, had a rise and a fall to them where they would fall off to silence and then ramp back up again. and went on seemingly randomly for about 3 days as I recall. I never could find a logical source for them.
I've heard high tension power lines sing, but they have more of a buzzing hum that gets stronger when rain is on the way. I've also been alone out in the middle of nowhere in a mountain meadow in the spring when the bees were working all the wildflowers. Must have been millions of bees, the hum was so loud and pervasive that it sounded like the earth itself was humming.
Years and years ago, in the early 80's, I was walking home at about 10 or 11 PM one night from a visit and there was one particular spot on the trail that I could hear a mechanical "clanking" noise coming directly out of the earth right beneath my feet. It sounded like machinery running, or a tank rolling, or Kobolds hammering out swords from metal on an anvil. One step forward, and I couldn't hear it, and one step backward off of that spot, and I couldn't hear it. I could only hear it when I stood on that one exact spot. I milled around there for about half an hour trying to figure it out, but finally just shrugged and moved on. Never did find out what caused it.

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
