I grew up fascinated and surrounded by cars, and I wanted to showcase the love and adoration that has grown in me for cars and the surrounding culture as a result through audio. I recorded audio from various cars, car shops, and road locations, and even asked my mom to record some audio of my car driving by for an added personal feel.

For additional sounds, I used audio I had previously recorded of nature, large crowds of people talking, and smaller sounds, like the sound of a door closing or the satisfaction of having a good sip of coffee. I also wanted to showcase some of my own original music, which I included at the end of this piece to thematically tie it all together.
