I was once at a Plump DJs gig where the fire alarm went off and it took everyone a minute to realize it wasn't part of the tune.

I've also heard of people dancing to a generator when the hardtek stopped.

To be fair to the people concerned, both examples actually match the style of the music in question.

Reminds me of the hardcore raver Tyres from the sitcom Spaced (genius British comedy):

Saying that I have had a similar thing with tracks that have police sirens in them when listening in the car, it takes a moment to realise it isn't an actual emergency vehicle.
