Stalley, Lincoln Way Nights
» Whip music for the intelligent heads who quest for more than bass.
Recorded in Columbus, OH, Stalley's Lincoln Way Nights (Intelligent Trunk Music) is an invitation to the biggest street side car show in the small town of Massillon.
Stalley spoke with Impose on the thought process behind crafting intelligent trunk music and the culture of Lincoln Way, which you can read in full tomorrow.
Lincoln Way is also a street that in the summer time on Fridays and Saturday nights, people will pile up that strip with their old school and new school muscle cars that have tricked out fluorescent light sets and candy painted Cadillacs with big wheels, you can find any time of car riding up and down showcasing. Everybody listens to loud music and they might pull into a K-Mart parking lot or a gas station and open up the trunks and doors to let people see the systems, the amps. It’s something that brings out the city and people enjoy it whether they like cars or not.
You’ve got people who may be 21 years old and somebody who’s 81 years old that has a muscle car. I think that’s a beautiful thing too because it unites cultures, generations and different races. That culture is big and I wanted to bring that out in the music. Also the Intelligent Trunk Music part is about riding around, playing music loud, but I bring the intelligent part into it where the music is done intelligently so it sounds like an orchestra or a symphony.
