While much of the talk surrounding Bloodborne has been about the gameplay and graphics, one particular aspect that I found most appealing was its soundtrack. Part of what made facing these bosses so memorable was the iconic soundtrack accompanying the battle. And now, you can have it on CD.
Sumthing Else Music Works and Sony Computer Entertainment America have plans to release the Bloodborne Original Soundtrack as a CD album on April 21. It'll be available both at retailers and as digital download.
The soundtrack features 21 tracks totaling nearly 70 minutes in length. The "hauntingly beautiful" music is performed by a 65-piece orchestra, 32-piece choir, and multiple vocal and instrumental soloists. It was recorded in London at Abbey Road and Air Studios. The score is composed of a team of FromSoftware composers featuring Yuka Kitamura (Dark Souls II), Tsukasa Saitoh and Nobuyoshi Suzuki as well as guest composers including Ryan Amon (Elysium) and Michael Wandmacher (Twisted Metal).
"The resulting musical collaboration transports listeners to a world of dread, beauty, and despair with every note, every beat of the drum, and every vocalization," Sumthing Else Music Works hyped.
