Few ideas in storytelling are as powerful as home. Sometimes it means return. Sometimes absence. Often, belonging.
We remember home through sound. In stories, the right sound keeps that memory alive. Imagine hearing a New York police siren in Berlin, a London Mind the gap in Tokyo, or a Paris Metro chime in San Francisco. Such details anchor us in the scene, and when they are wrong, they pull us out.
Because real sounds matter, Soundly works with people around the world to capture them with care. Our new series, Sounds Like Home, lets you meet these people where they live and listen to the sounds that tell their story.
The first episode takes us to Kragujevac, Serbia, with Danilo Crnogorac. He records the voices of Zastava engines to preserve his city’s industrial history, as he is searching for the missing Zastava 101.
At Soundly, we care for the details and the people who preserve them, so your stories stay true and their sound comes home.
