EV sounds are by and large dumb and bad, but that’s not a universal rule. BMW worked with Hans Zimmer to score its EVs, while Bentley is doing something fully orchestral for the upcoming Torcal. The key to a good EV tone seems to be getting musical with it, but musical in what way? Today, we’re going to figure it out by getting your take: Which musician would make the best EV sounds?
If the automaker of your dreams were to pair up with an artist to make their newest EV tone, who should they link up with? This can be any musician, living or dead, solo artist or band, but I’d really prefer if it were someone I could find on YouTube so I can judge how right or wrong you are. Would you like your electric car to sound like Henrix’s national anthem, or Spor’s fast-paced beats? Now’s the time to say.
My vote goes to HEALTH
I want my car to feel like the big piece of heavy industrial machinery it is, and few artists can manage a sound like that in the way HEALTH can. I could go more industrial, sure, but HEALTH still actually sounds good — I don’t want my car to just sound like screeching metal. HEALTH could make one hell of an EV sound, and I posit that it would be better than just about any other artist could muster.
That’s just my taste, though, and tastes vary. Do you want to hear a car with audio by 100 Gecs, or by Femtanyl? Let me know down below! Is your ideal car scored by Maggie Rogers or Mitski? Well, please go to therapy, and then let me know down in the comments. Also, make sure you know all the side effects of your new SSRI before you get behind the wheel again.
