Gone in less then 60 seconds was put together back in 2000, around the time when the movie "Gone in 60 seconds" (starring Nicholas Cage and Angelina Jolie) was about to hit the theatres.



At the time, Marcus had decided to do a piece based on Peter Conelly’s music (who replaced Nathan McCree as composer for the Tomb Raider games), and this particular song was based on Peter’s "Jeep thrill" theme, which you can hear in TR: Last Revelation while Lara is driving a jeep. (It is also played during end credits of the game.) The news that Angelina was going to play Lara Croft in the Tomb Raider movie had been announced at the time, so that, and the jeep theme/car fact, gave Marcus the idea for the title "Gone in less than 60 seconds". It was meant as a bit of a joke in that direction. It has taken time, but Marcus Trogen has finally decided to release it.

The release date for "Gone in less than 60 seconds" was March 8th, 2004 (International Womens Day)!

Marcus Trogen is well know in the Tomb Raider Community for his first tune called "Dance Raider", which became a huge hit,  a spark that encouraged him to continue to release more tunes inspired by the Tomb Raider games.
