Domestic Symphony: Why your dryer has a theme song
Twenty Thousand Hertz - The stories behind the world's most recognizable and interesting sounds.
Not long ago, our home appliances made nothing but abrasive beeps and harsh buzzes. In recent years though, these devices have started to chirp and sing with carefully designed tones and melodies. But crafting the "perfect" device sound takes skill, patience, and a lot of trial and error. Featuring Audiobrain Founder/Executive Producer Audrey Arbeeny, and Quiet Mark Founder Poppy Szkiler.
Twenty Thousand Hertz is produced by Defacto Sound.
