BMW has created its first music video, which is the result of a collaboration between BMW Group’s Electronic Media Department and creative Munich artists Jonas Imbery and Mirko Borsche.

“Check my machine” shows off the production process for the new 2012 BMW 1 Series.

Jonas Imbery, who composed the soundtrack stated, “The appeal of the work was to develop a viable, independent, recognisable composition that only makes use of vehicle sounds, such as the blinkers, GPS voice, closing noises, seat belts, doors, safety alarm, to name but a few. The visual resolution at the end shows clearly that the percussive elements such as the bass synthesizer, the vocals and the melodies were produced by the vehicle itself.”
