“Need for Speed Carbon takes a cinematically sonic approach to the sport’s different personalities and the crews that rule it. €œStreet racing is an international outlaw sport with a velocity all its own," said Steve Schnur, Worldwide Executive of Music and Marketing at EA. And while the different crews may compete head-to-head, the three music genres combine to create what may be the most compelling and combustible game soundtrack of the year. Exotic cars are represented by a mix of the new UK Grime scene with artists such as Lady Sovereign, Roots Manuva and Sway, International Hip Hop from Pharrell, and Philadelphia ’s Spank Rock. For the game’s Japanese Tuner Cars, the soundtrack delivers a newly revitalized sub-genre of electronic music known as ‘Electro’ originally pioneered by Gary Numan and personified by such artists as UK ’s Ladytron and Goldfrapp, Australia ’s The Presets, Japan ’s melody. The riff-heavy power of such bands as Kyuss, Eagles of Death Metal, UK ’s Metro Riots and Australia ’s Wolfmother fuels the Muscle Cars. For this long-awaited new chapter in the top-selling franchise, EAâ„¢ Trax has created an international soundtrack of 30 diverse cuts that reflect the game’s three distinct car classes exotics, muscles and tuners. Fasten your seatbelts for the most intense ride of the year as EA redefines the sound of street racing with Need for Speedâ„¢ Carbon.
