Write a short summary of what happens in the radio or audio work.
In 2020 Sennheiser – famous for producing both state-of-the-art microphones and headphones - celebrated their 75th anniversary. Time, to remind of some outstanding moments in music history and how to enjoy them best.
We decided to do so simply through the power of words. The result was a series of radio ads, that tell the stories of great songs, bring them to life - and point out all those details, that one can hear with a Sennheiser headphone.
Translation. Provide a full English translation of any audio.
“Hangman looks round as he waits. Cord stretches tight - then it breaks.”
That’s what Joy Division frontman Ian Curtis predicted in his last recorded song – four days before he ended his life by hanging himself.
“In a Lonely Place” is actually not a song; it’s a chanted testament set to music. Its grim and dark production gives the impression he’s already singing from his grave.
His hollowly recorded quiet but deep voice seems to slowly disappear under monotonous heavy drums, that set the pace for the last march of a dying man.
“How I wish we were here with you now.”
One last wish that overshadows the following two minutes and 24 seconds of majestic, and at the same time disturbing, instrumental.
So, discover what you’ve never heard before.
And listen to “In a Lonely Place” as if for the very first time.
Because great moments deserve great sound.
Sennheiser. For over 75 years.
