Black Swan composer goes all N7.

Unbelievably awesome, although I *really* liked the work Jack Wall has done on the previous two games, so I hope this is of a piece with the others.  Still, curiosity about what Mansell does with a video game score wins above all.

 

(And man, could the attribution chain for this story be more awkward?  Heh.)

On one hand, more Mansell is always good. On the other Mass Effect's soundtrack was pretty fucking spectacular already.

Has there been any word on why the change was made?  I mean, was it something Bioware came up with or did Wall bail on the game for some reason.

 

As much as I'd love more music by Mansell I just can't help but feel that ME's soundtrack was already spot on and the change feels a little unnecessary.

It's too early to say. I'm certain that Wall's leitmotifs and themes will be preserved in one way or another, and it's still possible that Mansell and Wall could be collaborators. The Quietus piece is the only source for this so far, and it's not very detailed.

I'm kind of excited. Mansell's work on Moon and The Fountain could lend itself to Mass Effect pretty amazingly.

This column could've been titled MASS to MASS?!  Better angels my mass!  

 

(Oh alright... Holy Dread is good too...)

Happy in the pants.
