I’ve been fighting for now 14 years to try to do this, to make all the subway turnstiles make music. I want to make every station in New York have a different set of dominant keys, so that people when they grow up, later on in life, will hear a piece of music and be like, “Oh that’s Union Square.”
So when you go through the turnstiles, there would be a thing that would make a beep of a certain note. And it would have a random note generator that would be based on a percentage, so that the root note would be a higher percentage of going off, then the third, then the fifth. And during rush hour in the bigger stations, it would hopefully make a really beautiful piece of music.
Each line would be a piece. The green line would go through different chords and when they intersected with other lines that would change that station.

Great Cover. I Love How Slowing Down The Track And Changing The Key Completely Changes The Mood.

“[New Order]’s struggle with technology helped give Power, Corruption & Lies its defining tone, which drummer Stephen Morris describes as “fragile and wintery.” As is the band’s custom, the album’s cryptic song titles were added only at the last minute. “Ultraviolence” was a term from A Clockwork Orange. The title Power, Corruption & Lies, Morris says, came “off the back of a George Orwell book.” Peter Savile’s cover design shows only a cropped reproduction of Roses, by Henri Fantin-Latour, a French impressionist, with no mention of the album title or band name.”
New Order’s Power, Corruption & Lies was released 30 years ago today.
