I usually try to tell the story through my OST and limit the listening experience to 1h so people can be on a cohesive musical journey. The OST for #DyingLightTheBeast will be different as it's a story about only one feeling: "Revenge".
A little bit more in the oven but you can listen to some flavor in here. Patience! We are fighting for you, the gamers!
We have made the decision to push back the release of Dying Light: The Beast to September 19. This additional time will allow us to work on crucial feedback we received during playtests, and preview events. Read the message from our dev team for more info:…
The soundtrack for #DyingLightTheBeast is not about melodies or harmonies. It's about having one and only feel: Revenge. However...
#DyingLightTheBeast previews are out and wow! This is really encouraging! This video made me laugh so much! youtu.be/ypUJlC7pV_A?si…
My music for #Greedfall2 includes 100% organic performance by amazing musicians. Beyond this fact, my composition includes some notes that could be...difficult, but it's just a matter of taste. Something AI will never have (hopefully). Here is a quick example. Like it or not :)
“South Of Midnight” music design is really unique. We tried to offer a fresh experience through original songs. I’m very proud of what we achieved and I hope you will experience it sometime in your future. Merci!

I have to say, working with @RogerCraigSmith is a real treat. The man is so involved and talented! #DyingLightTheBeast is in good hands…or rather good voice!
The most embarrassing part of the bad reception for AI music is that if many didn't know it was AI, they might like it. It's been decades that commercial music is more or less dead on substance, leaving the audience with "products" that are amazingly produced but with no juice.
I had a great time with @theflightmusic @venustheory and @earcom at #soundtrackkoln discussing VGM with the crowd. Ofc I did bring Music Design on the table and the reaction of the crowd is reflected by Edward Norton on the screen. Please don't underestimate the value of MD.

Music design is often mistaken for a purely technical task but that couldn’t be further from the truth. At its core, it’s one of the most creative aspects of game music, capable of guiding players into unexpected and unforgettable experiences.
Hey #dyinglightthebeast community. Some of you think that the track I wrote and available on all streaming platforms called “A Changed Man” is the main title of the game. You’re mistaking… The main title has yet to be unveiled but here is its name: “Kyle” August 22nd!
I always look at this sort of “competition” with a smile :)
Which game has has the best score/soundtrack so far in 2025?
Never forget that real artists don’t make art for money but because they need to express something through their craft. To make a living out of your art is a very privileged situation but it’s not the drive. Look back at the many artists that were not even recognized while alive
I hope (and do believe) that #DyingLightTheBeast will surprise more than one. We are putting a lot of efforts to create a memorable experience. Kyle Crane is something else and the gameplay and visuals are really amazing. Is August 22nd marked on your agenda?
Damn…working on #DyingLightTheBeast can be dangerous…Heart attack was close… This game can be very scary… I hope I will make it for the release…Wish me luck!
I hope players will enjoy the game and its soundtrack. We’re striving to create something special, unique and soulful, that looks to the future while honoring the past. #cantwait

Nice to see music design being advertised by someone like @HIDEO_KOJIMA_EN Hope it will give some light to this amazing and unique feature for games.
Death Stranding 2 music will change according to your actions, like a movie where the music gradually ascends to more upbeat style or drums, depending on the emotion in the scene, and that is determined by your movements🚀 @Kaizerkunkun @Kojima_Hideo
You should look at the late “overwhelming positive” reviews and decide for yourself
