About this sound

This 34-second clip is an excerpt from Kate Bush's 'Running Up That Hill,' built around her clear, yearning vocal, pulsing synths and a steady drum beat. It feels tense and determined at first, then opens into a hopeful, emotional lift that makes a scene feel bigger. The song first appeared on her 1985 album Hounds of Love and found a new audience through Stranger Things.

Pro tip
