The Conduit Picks Up Famous Composer

The makers of the upcoming first-person shooter The Conduit announced today that their game will be scored by famous composer Diego Stocco. Stocco is credited with the music for big-budget movies such as Transformers, Resident Evil: Extinction, Crank, Jumper, Lady in the Water, and videogame soundtracks for Justice League Heroes and SoulCalibur IV. The addition of a world-class composer to the project continues a string of early successes for developers High Voltage, who walked away from E3 this year cradling a heap of "best of show" awards for the game. IGN.com gave it three awards, including Best Shooter Game of E3 2008 (Wii), Best Graphics Technology of E3 2008 (Wii), and Best Overall Wii Game of E3 2008. GameTrailers.com also gave it Best Wii Game of E3 2008.

"Working with Diego was such an enjoyment," said Michael Metz, Audio/Visual Director at High Voltage Software. "When I heard the first track he made for The Conduit, I literally got the chills, it was exactly the mood and mix of sound design and music we were looking for."

Based on all of the praise the game has garnered, we can't wait to see how the graphics, gameplay, and sound all tie together as it gets closer to its release early next year.
