Cacophony means a harsh, discordant mixture of sound that is annoying or irritating. A combination of sounds that is not in harmony.

The words that form the clue to the meaning of cacophony are:
1) blare, battered, trumpet
2) smash, cymbals
3) anguished, screech, poorly-played saxophone

Trumpet, cymbals, and saxophone are all musical instruments. If these instruments were in very good condition and were played well, then the sounds they would have produced will be harmonious.

Dearest brother,

Having moved to Korea has been an intriguing experience for I can finally fondle my darkest ideals. In my hands, I have the endless possibilities to indulge in the art of making money through my gift of speaking to the dead. And, if you could see brother I already have many clients who are after me begging to communicate with their beloved friends and family members who have crossed the line and are now roaming through the land of the living as spirits. Individuals come and go, in and out my dark apartment. They come for hope, with the faith that they shall communicate with their loved one’s. You have no idea how it pities my heart my brother to see them in such situation, the pain they have of them loosing a loved one. Still, it’s a relief that I help them. Yet, sometimes I feel like the spirits are not the original people that died, but instead demons. Could it be brother? I am puzzled by this, and I’m not sure if what I’m doing is the correct thing anymore. Do reply back as fast as you can. Thank you brother for your time and patience. I dearly care about you.
