‘Drive’ Soundtrack on 8-Track?

… Well, sorta. Guess the songs.

Jay Malone, who made the video, explained in the video’s comments how he made it. It’s fairly simple and straightforward: “That 8-Track unit is also a recorder. I have the soundtrack on vinyl and simply transferred it over. The sound quality is surprisingly excellent. Sounds just as good as the vinyl. The 8-track unit was also tuned up and heads aligned.”

As always, check out my massive feature on Nicolas Winding Refn’s Drive and its soundtrack. In it, you’ll find interviews with College, Electric Youth, Johnny Jewel (Chromatics, Desire), and Cliff Martinez, among others.
