There can be as much value in the blink of an eye as in months of rational analysis.
— Malcolm Gladwell — Blink
The soundtrack of the film Drive had been sitting in my head for a while. That specific atmosphere — cool, synthetic, slightly melancholic, built for forward motion. When I heard a new track by The Arch, I knew immediately what to do with it. Not after analysis. In the first few seconds of listening.
I offered to remix the track without being asked — no brief, no budget, no deadline other than the one I set myself. The only reason to do it was the challenge and the joy of it. And to keep the musical muscle trained. A skill you don't use quietly disappears.
The remix was produced under the TomyTones name and is available on Spotify.
