Beyond: Two Souls (Original Video Game Soundtrack) Is Out Now On Lakeshore Records – Download Here: [iTunes]
In this edition of Throwback Thursday, we’re excited to share the original interview with composer Lorne Balfe and score producer Hans Zimmer for the Beyond: Two Souls game score! Originally released for Playstation 3, BEYOND: TWO SOULS was re-released for Playstation 4. Lakeshore Records released the soundtrack recently, and you can preview the album after the jump.
Here’s the video interview via the Playstation 3 YouTube channel, originally published in 2013:
Don’t make plans for this Friday, because Narcos hits Netflix and you’re going to be busy. Based on the DEA’s pursuit of drug lord Pablo Escobar, the 10-episode first season will certainly appeal to fans of action-packed crime dramas. It’s executive produced by José Padilha, the Brazilian director whose credits include Elite Squad and its sequel, along with the documentary Bus 174, and last year’s Robocop remake. Fans of his work will recognize some cast and crew from previous projects.
Fire up those Netflix accounts for the weekend, because we’ve got 5 good reasons to binge through this show.
