A 'New Breed' of Sound: Mustang Mach-E's Sci-Fi Drive Tones Inspire a Thumping Track from Detroit Electronic Music Artist

DEARBORN, Mich., Aug. 28, 2020 – The all-electric #ford #mustangmache sounds like a sci-fi fantasy – so much that it inspired a Detroit-based electronic music artist #matthewdear to transform its sound into song.

Inspired by classic ‘80s sci-fi cinema, #ford sound designers worked with the studio Ozone Sound to craft electronic oscillations that emanate in and outside of the #mustangmache while the vehicle is in motion.

That piqued the interest of Dear, a founding member of world-renowned electronic music label Ghostly International. Dear used the synth-heavy sounds to create “New Breed,” a hypnotic electronic arrangement that’s distinctly #mustangmache.

“The idea of remixing the sounds from the #mustangmache was immediately interesting because I’ve always considered myself to be a ‘sound tinkerer,’” said Dear. “But after I got to actually hear and experience the digital propulsion sounds that #ford created, I was sold on the project. The sounds are cooler than I thought they’d be — cinematic and sci-fi — and all the noises the car makes have a sense of modern musicality. Creating “New Breed” was a new experience and I think the song — like the car — takes its passengers on a voyage.”

Since its debut, Mustang has been synonymous with music, inspiring songs throughout the latter half of the 20^th century. With “New Breed,” #mustangmache ignites a new generation of Mustang in music. Give the track a listen and see how #ford and #matthewdear made the piece a reality by watching a short documentary here. Matthew Dear’s “New Breed” is now streaming on Apple Music, Spotify, Deezer, YouTube or where you listen to music.
