WILL THE ALMIGHTY Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Considering I listen to a lot of game soundtracks, I'd like to know who's doing the music for Alpha Protocol. Also, how awesome is the music? "Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons. I'm going to to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!"

Perseus Veil Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Jason Graves. I don't remember if there are other composers (Alex Brandon???). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pop Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Alexander Brandon, who scored Jazz Jackrabbit, Deus Ex, and the first few Unreals, along with many other games, composed much of the music while he was still Audio Director at Obsidian (he has since moved on to less expensive parts of the US) As for licensed music, I know trance schlockmeister BT is contributing a track. The theme music was apparently composed by some famous movie guy. I don't know who it is, I don't know if that's been released yet. There was an AP soundtrack that was leaked / released at some point. Example. Join me, and we shall make Production Beards a reality! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorth Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 I am going to be very disappointed if there isn't a few "hits of the eighties" in there “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

Raithe Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Have to be careful which way you go.. the score of a game, or the soundtrack of known music that's put in the game.. But a nice game score can be great to have on in the background.. "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meshugger Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 It is really sad that Alexander Brandon left (the main contributor to Alpha Protocol's soundtrack IIRC). His compositions for Unreal 1, Unreal Tourment and Deus Ex greatly elevated your gaming experience.

WILL THE ALMIGHTY Posted November 4, 2009 Author Share Posted November 4, 2009 There was an AP soundtrack that was leaked / released at some point. Example. Ooh, that's good. I was wondering if they'd get the same person who made TSL's soundtrack, which would have been good, but to be honest I prefer Deus Ex's soundtrack by far. "Alright, I've been thinking.

Nepenthe Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 Mark Griskey. His TSL soundtrack was in a league of its own. I hope Obsidian gets the chance to make use of his talents again some day Same here, and I also dug the rebuilt enclave theme a lot. I believe he's (still) the Lucasarts in-house composer, and did the Force Unleashed score. (Which I have to describe as forgettable, since I can literally remember nothing of it) You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep. Have I ever said that?

I personally would love for that to happen, but it's not something we can do without talking to Sega. At the very least, I would hope that it would be streamable on alphaprotocol.com at some point.

Pop Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 Hans Zimmer actually did the soundtrack for Modern Warfare 2. But then again, Activision has seemingly an unlimited budget... Far as I'm aware, the pro composer for AP is only making one main song, which will then have variations made from it by in-house dudes. So they could probably afford a Name.
