God of Conflict composer Bear McCreary has informed VGC that Astro Bot’s Bot of Conflict stage made him “so proud” of his music.
As a part of a forthcoming podcast interview celebrating the twentieth anniversary of the God of Conflict franchise, McCreary informed VGC his ideas on Astro Bot‘s God of Conflict stage, which options new compositions of McCreary’s God of Conflict music, this time composed by Kenny Younger.
“I had an opportunity to inform Workforce Asobi to their face how a lot I like their sport. I met them the day they got here into city for The Sport Awards. I liked it. I liked the extent.
“I most likely shouldn’t say this, however I’m going to say it. I had seen it effectively prematurely as a result of my pals at Santa Monica Studios have been like ‘you gotta come see this factor!’ as a result of they’d been working with Workforce Asobi on it. Whereas clearly I didn’t work with Kenny on it, there was no want. He nailed it.”
Talking to VGC in October about Astro Bot’s soundtrack, composer Kenny CM Younger informed us that he was effectively conscious of the strain of dealing with different composers’ compositions within the context of Astro Bot.
“Once I was working it out, you’re acutely aware of the truth that that is another person’s child, that you’re form of slicing up successfully,” Younger mentioned.
“However you recognize, I believe the 2 issues to attempt to do there may be, like, Yeah, do it with love and respect and, respect and people are video games that I’ve performed that I’ve obtained loads of respect for too. So, hopefully, that comes throughout within the music. I don’t suppose I’ve ruined it (laughs). I’ve tried to maintain the essence of what was there while altering it to make it match Astro Bot.”
McCreary informed VCG that Kenny’s work on his music allowed him to understand it in a approach he hadn’t beforehand been in a position to.
“What Kenny did for me is that once I obtained to the Bot of Conflict stage, and also you heard these three notes, it doesn’t matter that they have been utterly recontextualized, it didn’t matter that they’d been redone on this enjoyable, robo-electro-pop fashion. Once you hear these three notes, that’s God of Conflict,” McCreary mentioned.
“That makes me so proud, as a result of it actually hit me that I made one thing.”
Elsewhere in our forthcoming interview, McCreary mentioned that he felt his time on the God of Conflict collection is “full.”
