Album Description
Original Soundtrack Composed By Jesper Kyd
This awe-inspiring video game series is acclaimed for its anti-hero icon named Agent 47, it's innovative stealth/action gameplay, cutting-edge visuals, compelling storyline and its unique, cinematic musical scores composed by Jesper Kyd.
Building on the previous accomplishments of the music for the Hitman series, Jesper Kyd delivers a dynamic live orchestral score for Hitman: Blood Money, reocrded with the 150-member Budapest Symphony and Hungarian Radio Choir. In addition to composing and producing the choral and orchestral score, Kyd penned several acoustic and electronica-fused music tracks for the latest Hitman score. In short, the music style for Hitman: Blood Money is epic orchestral, electronic and a fusion of both.
From the Artist
"It seemed like a natural choice to mix things up for the Blood Money score. After the electronic-driven score for Hitman: Codename 47, the orchestral Hitman 2; Silent Assassin score was a new direction for the sound of Hitman, although there are still a few purely electronic tracks in Hitman 2: Silent Assassin. For the third title, Hitman: Contracts, we wanted to go back to the games's roots and create an updated and more modern electronic score. So the Hitman series has a strong background in electronic music."
Customer Reviews
Brilliant
Jesper Kyd is the master at mixing beautiful orchestral music with electronic beats. The music in the game suits it very well, with orchestral parts setting mood for sneaking around, and adding the electronic parts only when things get intense. The Xbox 360 version of the game lets you listen to your own music when playing any game, but with music like this I don't need to switch anything because it's that good.
Best Game music score ever!
Jesper Kyd does it again. In a world of the same breeds same, like breeds like, he breathes fresh air into the game experience. Not only does his music capture the feeling of Agent 47 and his adventures while in game play, but while listening to this soundtrack you can be imediatley whisked in your minds eye to your own game play and to how you experienced it. Jesper Kyd is the only game composer that can be called truely unique. The classical, electronic, and choral blending makes for a wonderful listen. Pick this up see and for yourself.
Wow!
Wow! This score is awesome. The first song starts the CD off with frantic chanting, it sounds kind of like male vs. female, meaning men are saying stuff in a weird language and women are saying stuff too, only they both are saying different things and it blends in with one another. It has a cool sound. The rest of the CD gets better and better, including 47 Attacks, Main Titles, and Rocky Mountains. This is a must buy, oh, I'm really 16. Its a long story. Anyways, look into this one and also Hitman: Contracts, which is also quite good.
