CES Las Vegas. The place to be for the sound of the future

Why an industrial engines company will be show here? Because the ‘sound of the future’ will be presented exactly during CES Las Vegas with a live session by Giorgio Moroder on January 8th. The sound goes by the name of Preludio and is the first project of its kind in the industry, a testament to FPT Industrial’s innovative spirit.

We need more than silence for the engines of the future. Without sound, we can never fully enjoy our on-board experience. And we need more than just sound: we need music!” said Giorgio Moroder during his time in Arbon, in Switzerland, at the FPT Industrial R&D center. This is how the idea of Preludio began to take shape. The Preludio will also become a 4-minute hit that will be released by Giorgio Moroder and FPT Industrial, digitally distributed via a special project in collaboration with Spotify.
