Riders on the Storm was originally released by The Doors in 1971, and producer Fredwreck later reworked it with Snoop Dogg for the soundtrack of Need for Speed Underground 2, released in 2004. The game became a defining early 2000s racing title, and its licensed soundtrack helped the remix reach a generation of players who associated it with underground car culture. Shared through gameplay videos, edits, and soundboards, it remains a shorthand for that era's street-racing mood.
