The world of NASCAR does not attract me in the least, except when it comes to seeing some big punch, the kind that we have seen so many times in Total Impact. But nothing more, because otherwise I find it soporific to see a race of this type, and therefore, I am not at all aware of the games that are coming out on this type of driving. Hence the surprise that I got a few minutes ago when reading the latest issue of Guitarra Total magazine, in an interview with Joe Satriani .
This one revolves around his super group ‘Chickenfoot’, but there is also room for personal questions about his team, his solo work and more. The fact is that in one part the interviewer, Sergi Ramos, asks him a question about video games . Specifically for his work with ‘ NASCAR 06: Total Team Control’ (PS2 and Xbox). The answer is priceless, stay tuned.
“Oh, I will never do that again, I assure you.”
Thus begins the extensive answer of the teacher Satriani, which I will not put in full, as is logical. But I will mention another part that I found very interesting and that has also happened to me when composing something for the few groups I have been in:
“After a while, I was in my studio, writing riffs and recording demos for the project and thinking” this riff is very good, I don’t want to give it to a NASCAR video game “(laughs)”
The exact number of songs is close to 50, but their duration is shorter than usual: two minutes on average. Although the Satch touch is present.
Obviously, after reading the interview, I started researching on the Internet, and without difficulty I found some songs that I now share with you. Unfortunately I have not been able to find the complete soundtrack, but less gives a stone. For now, I’ll try to get ‘ NASCAR 06′ just for its Joe Satriani soundtrack. Who was going to tell me…
A boat soon, of these eleven cuts, I would highlight the song “Overdrive Me”, which would not dislodge everything (saving the distances) within the excellent OST of Formula 1, with songs by Satriani himself, Steve Vai, and especially Overdrive , with some compositions burned into our memory.
