Howard Audio remakes Weekend Special for Cell C

1 Dec 2021

Howard Audio recently had the privilege of re-recording Brenda Fassie's classic song, Weekend Special, for Cell C's Summer Campaign. The campaign had a transmedia strategy, rolling out across all media.

Howard Audio took charge of music composition and audio final mix. “This was such a fun job," Adam says. "And having had the pleasure of working with Brenda Fassie in the early 2000s, it meant a lot to be given the responsibility of recording this classic song. Working closely with director Mfundo Mkhize of Ola Films, we had to get the music composed before the shoot - as syncing to on-set sound and choreography was imperative.”

Using the best session musicians in the business, we recorded a full-length version of the classic song and cut that down to suit each commercial.

At Howard Audio we do sound differently. Our composers and engineers combine original music, sound design and final mix in a state of the art studio to create emotionally captivating audio.
