The Journey is an ambient/chillout radio station in Grand Theft Auto IV.

Description

The station is unusual in its choice of DJ, "a computer" (as credited by both the end-game credits and manual) which speaks in the synthesized voice of a woman. Often times, the lines delivered by the computer are seemingly philosophical, but appear to be more nonsensical, if not meaningless. The imaging voices of the station are provided by one Alexandra Williamson, the only known human voice actor for the station.

This genre of music is the first of its kind to appear in a Grand Theft Auto game, and listeners will recognize the track "Pruit Igoe" by Philip Glass, which was played in the first GTA IV trailer.

The Journey is replaced with Self-Actualization FM in the Episodes from Liberty City version of The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony.
