Before She Touched the Wheel, the Car Drove Away | Surf Rock Space Age Pop Vintage Exotica

One hour of surf rock, vintage exotica, reverb guitar, midnight rockabilly, and space-age lounge. At sunset, a woman left the last lounge on Island 62 and walked toward her car. The parking lot was empty. The engine was cold. The keys were still in her hand. Before she touched the wheel, the car drove away. The doors locked by themselves, and Track 01 began playing through the radio. There was no driver. She grabbed the wheel, but it turned against her hands, guiding the car toward an abandoned road through the jungle. During Track 03, a green light appeared in the rearview mirror. During Track 05, the radio began giving directions in a language she had never heard. During Track 07, something moved behind the passenger seat. She looked back. A wooden tiki was sitting inside the car. Its eyes were glowing green. The tiki raised one hand, and the accelerator pressed itself to the floor. During Track 10, the road disappeared from the headlights. During Track 12, the radio announced: DESTINATION ACCEPTED. DRIVER NO LONGER REQUIRED. Track 13 began. At sunrise, the car returned to the lounge without its passenger. The engine was still running. The woman’s keys remained inside the ignition. A wooden tiki was sitting behind the wheel. Before anyone touched the car, Track 01 began again. --- TRACKLIST 0:00 Track 01 4:54 Track 02 9:24 Track 03 13:31 Track 04 18:32 Track 05 23:31 Track 06 28:32 Track 07 33:38 Track 08 37:17 Track 09 42:10 Track 10 46:44 Track 11 51:12 Track 12 56:12 Track 13 --- ISLAND 62 DRIVERLESS VEHICLE INCIDENT Location: Island 62 Lounge Parking Lot Departure Time: Sunset Keys in Driver’s Hand: Confirmed Vehicle Started: Unassisted Unknown Passenger: One Destination: Unknown Driver Recovered: No Tiki Recovered: Yes Vehicle Status: Still Running Transmission Status: Active --- CHANNEL 62 ARCHIVE Forgotten sounds from places that may never have existed.
