RALLY FIGHTER // A Rally inspired synthwave mix

Rally has easily been my favorite motorsport, the challenge being less about your opponents and more about the stage, tackling the terrain going over highway speeds on dirt, snow, ice or even asphalt all while processing the pace notes that tell you what's coming up. I wanted to capture the spirit of the sport with this synthwave mix, be it group B or modern day WRC. Hope you enjoy!

The Car is the Piano, The Gravel is the Melody, Speed ββis the Music, The Rally is the Art.

Classic rally and synthwave are a combination that go together like burgers and fries.

One thing I love about rally is that you can feel you've accomplished something just by finishing in one piece (even if it's only in games/sims for me). My times aren't amazing, but a stage is a microcosm of life: ups, downs, I could've taken that part better, I could have done worse on the others. And, like a lifetime, it goes by so quickly.

I feel this is the place to mention this. My late 80s early 90s brethren. In France, there is a museum called Manoir d'Automobile. Most of the exhibits are rally cars, F1 cars and road cars from this era. The booklet is from the 90s. They never updated it. It still has the price in Francs on the cover. It is a time capsule of exactly this period of time. Old tube TVs with crackly screen playing old footage of Le Mans 24H and French Rally. It is a gem of a place. And listening to this kind of music whilst there is the only way you could improve it.

There needs to be a Group B Rally movie, and this should be the soundtrack.

8:59 That guitar is truly diabolical

What I love about rally motorsport is not competition between drivers,teams nor fighting for better time.Its the feeling of being connected with everything starting from your car ending on the road.Its a fight with your doubts,with your weaknesses and yourself.Its pure joy from accomplishing something,gratification for improving yourself and trying to be better,trying more.I think in the end of the day,that's all that matters for true ace drivers and I hope one day I'll join them . . .

Group B cars aka the flying coffins + that Audi Quattro MK1 picture not touching the ground... truly evocative masterpiece!
-
high speed through narrow countryside gravel roads in a rhythmic driving style does indeed go very well with the consistency of synthwave, one song, one stage
-
Afterglow makes me uncontrolled goosebumps... When I imagine a flying Audi quattro, ΠΌixed with sound 20v 5 zyl.......It is extasy
-
Flying through the air, heart pounding, eyes focused. This is what it feels, to be alive.
-
