EV Listening | William Harris
The Honda Prologue has a hovering, suffusing melody, with a low rhythmic pulse and a subtle, epiphanic wash. It sounds like a computer game lifting you into heaven, or the arrival of benevolent extraterrestrial colonists. The Porsche Taycan makes a more sinister and comic, gulping, warp-speed sound, and the Nissan Ariya gives off a disturbed digital whine, like the tantrums of a petulant robot.
