RAID: Call of The Arbiter – Jesper Kyd’s Score Releases Globally!

RAID: Call of the Arbiter, music composed and produced by Jesper Kyd (Assassin’s Creed) has been released digitally via Lakeshore Records!  The Kyd’s score to the 10-episode limited series dropped on YouTube earlier this summer to adoring fans of the video game, RAID: Shadow Legends.  Providing a back story to the in-game characters, fans got to experience the game in a whole new dimension as the animated series also stands apart from the game.

“[High Elves and Dark Elves] conveys what feels like a battle between its atmospheric choral sections and the orchestral swells that dominate for brief passages—there’s a push and pull between the calm and the chaotic which makes for a very compelling piece of music.” – Under The Radar

Kyd’s score is performed by the Hungarian Scoring Orchestra and Choir, giving the music its epic sound to match the adventures.
