    I’m a bass player and I actually did this once. Called the community college I was attending at the time for a financial report, after 10 minutes of being on hold I picked up the bass, put the phone on speaker and started improvising some melancholic bass groove to go with the oddly gloomy hold music. Needless to say it was a little awkward when I hadn’t noticed a woman had picked up the phone after 10 seconds of her trying to get my attention. We did not jam together unfortunately

    The worst part though is when the music gets interrupted every 5 bars to reassure you that they'll have somebody with you shortly like okay sure but why do that I was enjoying the music and now I have to wait before it starts up again

      It's not by My Pet Flamingo. He did a remix of it. Stop being wrong about obvious shit.
      The original was Opus No.1 by Tim Carleton and Darrick Deel, who created it back in 1989.
      "Among the best known due to its default presence on Cisco telephones is "Opus Number One" by Tim Carleton and high-school friend Darrick Deel, who recorded it on a four-track tape recorder in 1989. Deel went on to work for Cisco in building the company's first VoIP phone. When a need for default on hold music came up, he recalled the track he and Carleton had recorded and reached out to Carleton for approval."
