In the year 2053, a tech company called Technic-Air released a brand new earbud that was designed to enhance your listening experience when using them with music and other audios.

People started buying it like crazy, as they all wanted their taste of the fresh product. Though, when citizens started to wear it, they became completely brainwashed.
