Toyota Comercial

[Tesseracted]

What is that song that played in the toyota comercial where everything starts out as vectors then the car drives fast and the vectors (Cartoons) get left behind and everything goes real, then the car stops and the vectors spring back?

Saw the Commercial yesterday. It sounds like a commissioned piece to me, because the electronic voice in the song keeps saying, "Vibe...Vibe...". At the end the Red car spins out and the cartoon colors catch up to it and the electronic voice says, "Toyota". Have you e-mailed Toyota to get any info from them? <_<

i've seen the ad, but didn't recognize the music... if i remember correctly, though, my thoughts were that it sounded like an original composition.

The commercial is for the Matrix...but as to the music, I'm unsure...I agree with Michelle, I think it's commissioned.

the more times i hear it the more i think it has a little bit of the toyota theme mixed in or something at the end... has to be an in-house production.

Ok.

I sent an e-mail to Toyota to find out the real deal. But in the interim, I did find the following info:

Actually, it looks like you can get the music from the ad agency.
