Windows Hush: Road Trip Soundtrack
Cate Bligh
Windows Hush (Road Trip Soundtrack) – Music Video and Single
A Laurel Canyon inspired Americana song with a backseat view to the music video with warm 70s vibes.
For this personal creative AI project, I wrote, produced, and mixed a 70s-tinged Americana single and edited a car-set music video using Suno v5, my Sora generated clips, and Adobe Premiere to put it all together.
Watch the video below and continue reading to learn all about my process (and how I can do this for you, too!)
Overview
Generating clips with the new Sora app sparked a new song idea, so I built a road trip nostalgia anthem called, Windows Hush.
I composed in Suno v5, extracted stems, then shaped a late 60s and early 70s Laurel Canyon mix.
I cut a simple in-car music video using my Sora generations while also finishing the audio in Adobe Premiere for period feel. The result is a warm, jangly soundtrack slice made for open roads and golden hour.
