We’re each picking five needledrops on this week’s episode of We Have A Technical. A little bit different from discussion of soundtrack originals, we’re talking about the use of existing songs in film and television, often for the purposes of a particular effect (and hopefully more than just the cheap recognition pop of “Hey, I know and like that song!”). As always, you can rate and subscribe on iTunes, download directly, or listen through the widget down below.
Covenant was the Project Gotham Racing 3 and 4 soundtracks; “20hz” on PGR3 and “The Men” on PGR4, as were Flesh Field and mind.in.a.box. Both games had separate electronic and an industrial in-game stations; someone on the dev team was very much into that kind of music, I think.
