Playing in the first cutscene in the restroom until the player takes control of James overlooking the town in both the original and the PS5 and PC remake from 2024, it became track no. 2 on disc 1 of the accompanying 3 part Silent Hill 2 Original Soundtrack - 2024 -, now titled White Noise (Actual Noise). The first segment is a synthesizer sample of Daybreak [Spectrasonics Virtual Instruments] and Ambient FX 08-11 [Bill Laswell]. The second segment is an acoustic rendition of another 2001 theme called Promise, which unfortunately went unreleased on the 2001 OST and got replaced with an electric guitar take in the 2012 HD Collection port. Related cues from this same remake are the reworked Promise Of The Forgotten and the new track Promise (Pragma Version), as well as the aforementioned Promise and Promise (Reprise) from the original. All renditions were composed by Akira Yamaoka. Both segments were embellished with additional (virtual) instruments. Among them is a mandolin, a novel idea for either of them. I am assuming that the mando and winds are samples once again, as is typical for Yamaoka. Do play it with a sustained tremolo. GDae standard tuning mandolin transcript.
