Description

What if the signature sound for a sleek Scandinavian EV was inspired by a cat’s purr? Vinn hit the gas on that idea, while General Motors shifted into a full sound and driving ecosystem of experience. Which sound story will drive more vehicles off the lot?

  2. The Sound of General Motors- Part One and Two of my 1st interview with Jay. We go deep into the process of making sound for cars, both gasoline and electric vehicles.

  1. Are Jingles Better Than Sonic Logos?- What’s the difference between a jingle and a sonic logo? Aren’t they the same thing?
