Dallas Taylor's Stories about Sound

I’m Dallas Taylor, and I host a show called Twenty Thousand Hertz which tells the stories behind the world’s most recognizable and interesting sounds. The following playlist includes a couple of our episodes as well as what I consider the cream of the crop in sonic goodness. They demonstrate incredible ways to use sound in storytelling as well as how to effectively talk about sound in a clear and unpretentious way. They are brilliantly crafted and communicate complex ideas within a sound-rich package. Many of these episodes were watershed moments in the development of Twenty Thousand Hertz. Enjoy!

    A trademarked sound

    Did you know that the sound of sizzling fajitas is more marketing than anything?

    I’m certain this was the episode that planted the seed that led to Twenty Thousand Hertz.
