Halo 2 Soundtrack
Volume One coming your way November 9th.
October 11, 2004 - Famed musician/producer Nile Rodgers' Sumthing Else Music Works, Inc., through its licensing relationship with Microsoft Game Studios, will be releasing Halo 2: Original Soundtrack Volume One on November 9th.
THe centerpiece for the soundtrack will be brand new symphonic compositions by Martin O'Donnell and Michael Salvatori, the composers behind the best-selling Halo: Combat Evolved soundtrack. "Visualize a giant orchestra with Martin O'Donnell as the composer and all the artists and musicians contributing as players in the grand symphony that is called Halo," states the album's producer Nile Rodgers.
The soundtrack also includes all new compositions from several of today's most popular rock bands. Breaking Benjamin represent with "Blow Me Away." The band's singer Ben Burnley is stoked about his band's involvement with the soundtrack. "Halo is my favorite all-time game," he says. "As a band we play it all the time while on tour. It's like a dream being able to contribute music to the game and soundtrack."
The soundtrack also features "Connected" by Hoobastank and "The Odyssey" by Incubus. "Halo is the only video game that ever inspired us to write a song. Now if we could only stop playing Halo, we might actually be able to write another one!" exclaims Incubus guitarist Mike Einziger.
Nile Rodgers also contributed to the album by writing, performing and co-producing the track "Never Surrender" in collaboration with renowned songwriter, artist and remixer, Nataraj. This exclusive cut as well as the "Halo Theme Mjolnir Mix" includes masterful guitar work by acclaimed rock guitarist Steve Vai. All of these additional tracks serve to fulfill the ultimate vision of O'Donnell's epic orchestral score.
"These players each have the unique ability to improvise and embellish Martin O'Donnell's ideas," stated Rodgers. "Therefore we are all 'Connected' - hence the original composition provided by Hoobastank as the bonus track - because we are contributors to the overall Halo symphony repertoire."
