A major figure for over four decades in the world of popular music, David Bowie is widely regarded as one of the most influential artists of all time. Through his unique sound and style, Bowie has been the inspiration for many past and present singers, song-writers and musicians, including current artists using Sennheiser audio equipment for their performances.

Labrinth, Sennheiser's Masters of Sound artist, who recently achieved a number one single with Beneath Your Beautiful' featuring Emeli Sande, said: The clothes. The style. I love that guy. Hes a pioneer! He has inspired many of my sessions.

Dan Gillespie Sells, lead singer of British pop rock band, The Feeling commented: I often wish I were a star person like David Bowie. His influence on my song writing has been massive and never once has waned. As a child I listened to my dads Bowie records and found myself lost in his movie-like world of imagination. I still find myself in the studio (or just in everyday life) asking, What would Bowie do?'

David Bowie is The Musician, The Songwriter, and Record Producer behind his own lyrics and music. Hes The Director, The Creator and Origin of his own visuals, added Mark Sheehan, guitarist for The Script. I see him in most modern day pop artists and rock bands from different corners of this earth. With the state of the current music industry we now know we will never see another David Bowie. So we are the new and we can only try carry forth his ethos.

Pop sensation and X Factor finalist Olly Murs said: David Bowie has been a big influence on me and British music. I grew up with my parents listening to him and he is someone whose career I admire and look up to.

Visitors are immersed in Bowie's world of music, art, and style via Sennheiser's guidePORT audio guide system and Aura 3D sound system which will seamlessly integrate sound material into the tour and automatically provide music and narrative when visitors approach the exhibits.
