We already know thatGran Turismo 5 Prologuelooks real purdy. Now Sony sends along details on how next month’s release will sound.
A press release tells us that soundtrack is headlined by an in-game exclusive remix of Weezer’s “Automatic,” from the band’s upcoming album and an EL-P remix of Mars Volta’s “Goliath.” Expect indie dance rock, electronica, classic rock and remixes, with musical acts like Weezer, Mars Volta, Justice, The Klaxons, Friendly Fires and DJ Shadow in the line up of a dozen exclusive singles.
“TheGran Turismo 5 Prologuesoundtrack gives fans the perfect audio accompaniment to high-octane racing from Daytona to Eiger Nordwand,” said Jeff Reese, director, software marketing, SCEA. “The edgy variety of music complements the pure adrenaline rush fans experience as they eclipse 200 miles-per-hour in the most authentic driving simulator around.”
In my book,Gran Turismomusic has ranged from smooth jazz borefests to off-the-wall goodness. What has never made sense to me is the weird range of tracks in these games. Remember the Snoop Dogg track? What the hell was that?
