Ubisoft has announced that the opening movie theme tune to Splinter Cell: Double Agent has been created by the orchestra/electronica-hybrid duo Sascha Dikiciyan & Cris Velaso. As well as the main theme, the pair also provided the score for all cinematics in the game.
“Sascha and Cris’ unique style was the perfect match for what we were looking for,” says Sylvain Brunet, Sound Producer for Ubisoft. “The latest episode of the ‘Splinter Cell’ franchise is more emotional than the previous installments. We needed music that would reflect the new dramatic storyline, and this is exactly what Sascha and Cris delivered with their main theme.“
“Ubisoft asked us to provide a score that would match the narrative in the game,” explains Sascha Dikiciyan. “We created a gritty electronica feel with cinematic orchestra to push the emotional side of the game to a new level.”
The talented duo have certainly been busy – they’ve also provided music for the video games Dark Messiah (Ubisoft), Spy Hunter: Nowhere to Run (Midway), and Hellgate: London (Namco).
Splinter Cell: Double Agent is due for release on numerous formats, including the Xbox 360, in October.
