Background

"Sunset Drive" is a song by Mike Shinoda made during the 2020 global COVID-19 pandemic.

In March 2020, the global pandemic created by the COVID-19 coronavirus caused communities to quarantine at home. During this time, Mike Shinoda decided to start live streaming online and inviting fans to watch him create new instrumental music.

"Sunset Drive" was a track made by Mike on April 14, 2020. It was the first jam of that day, because for the first time, Mike decided to make two different jams on the same day. After making "Sunset Drive", he decided to do a short jam in less than thirty minutes. The first jam isn't available online anymore as it was streamed on Twitch and got deleted after two weeks. On this day, Mike posted an Instagram story before going live.[1]

He said on Instagram, "This is my vibe today... making tones with the cassette four track. It's in a loop function, going into the cassette... the loop tape echo."

This is the only CoronaJam without a "making of" video online.
