"An adventure has to be lively, something that has to be memorable, otherwise what would be the point of the journey, if there's nothing to look back on?"

"I love this song and every time I hear it, I have thoughts of a road trip and the almost bittersweet feeling of leaving behind the place you call home, a call to adventure if you will."

"On the road refers to driving back and forth to destination to destination. Often times, I usually drive back and forth destinations around 30 minutes to an hour every weekend and 2 hours or more on special occasions.

Eurobeat, Trance, and other hardcore beats of music keep myself awake for a long time. In long drives where caffeine, rest areas, and long chat with friends are not available, there has to be some way to keep myself awake at long drives.

The genres mentioned has been a trend influenced to me at a much younger age before the asian culture began to embrace it in popularity in the late 90's and early 2000s. Of course, I decided to dwell on these genres with the rise of Arcade Music Games at the time. Eurobeat carried itself in the form of the Japanese dance Para Para (a dance that some people embracing the culture dance in the car) as well as underground racing, influencing games like ParaParaParadise and Initial D. This gives the adventurous mentality of street racer and dance, but not to the limit of breaking the law. Burning Night, despite being a much later track of the genre, is no exception. Trance has played in remixes of music from Japan, especially Ayumi Hamasaki and underground racing culture, influencing Maximum Tune. The melodic yet energetic tune keeps me focused and wide awake on the road. Of course, the hardcore beats like Valkyrie Dimension, is a good way to keep myself away from road rage. Yes, there are times where traffic and bad drivers create anger, but hardcore beats is a way to mindfully release that anger without going crazy and keep my mind off of the mishaps most of the time."

"The destination is not important, it's the journey that counts." A little cliche but an important phrase about life that I first heard when I was a kid. How have you been traveling on your journey? Are you wandering through suffocating darkness or dashing forward towards the bright future? Are you sitting back or discovering wonderful things?"

"I have always thought of the great, cross-country road trip as a rite of passage for anybody growing up. With nothing but a dusty back pack and the seemingly endless road stretching out before you. Accompanied by nothing more than a sense of adventure and the euphoric catharsis of virtually limitless possibility. Some people fail to heed this call or feel that it is beyond their reach. But when you really think about it, at the tip of the hat, you can simply pack up your life and basically go wheresoever the wind takes you. We sometimes fail to realize how amazingly free we truly are....

And so, as we are all on this journey, still searching for a destination. A fitting road anthem to accompany weary travelers, is Quruli's "Highway". It is comforting to know that not knowing exactly where we are going, is simply part-and-parcel of the human condition. And that sometimes getting lost, is the only way to be found..."
