Driver 2 - Background Music

Background Music

Background music for each city seems to match both with the car-chasing movie music and the predominant music styles of each city, for example, Havana BGM seems to be influenced by the Son cubano, Vegas BGM sounds with influences of North America's Western music and Rio BGM is influenced by samba and bossanova.

Cars in the levels themselves have approximately 5 or 6 seconds of looped music, in Chicago it is Rock/Electro Beat style and in Rio it is Drum & Bass.

The licensed songs featured in the game (as listed in the credits) are given below:

• "Fever" by Dust Junkies- The first cutscene in Las Vegas with the trucks pulling into the gas station.
• "In the Basement" by Etta James- in a bar in Las Vegas where Tanner and Jones shoot pool.
• "Help Me" by Sonny Boy Williamson- Tanner arrives back at his apartment and confronts Jericho.
• "Sitting Here Alone" by Hound Dog Taylor- The opening scene of the game at the Red River bar.
• "Just Dropped In" by Kenny Rogers & The First Edition- Plays over the end credits of the game.
• "Lacrimosa" by Mozart- The climactic scene in Rio at the base of the statue of Christ the Redeemer.
