The audio titled "Highly Charged" commences in a setting that seems to be in the early hours of the morning, suggested by the subtle undertones of the crackling dawn chorus. This American radio-themed piece begins with the low hum of amplitude modulated static, setting a nostalgic tone. There is a slight flipping sound, mimicking the old-fashioned dial-based tuning of radio stations, evoking a sense of the listener searching for a clear signal amongst the sea of frequencies. The static grows and modulates, creating a sense of anticipation and energy, almost as if the radio is highly charged and ready to burst into life. Through the fuzziness, snatches of different stations can be faintly heard, each with a unique quality, contributing to the vibrant tapestry of diverse broadcasts. The audio ends on a suspenseful note, leaving the listener intrigued and curious about what station will come through clearly next.
