EMI and Remedy team up to bring Kasabian to Alan Wake spin-off

EMI and Remedy team up to bring Kasabian to Alan Wake spin-off

Chris Hernandez 16 Jan

Music is always a large part of creating an atmosphere in any game and some would say even more important in horror/survival title. Much like the original American Nightmare will once again create this atmosphere by using licensed tracks in addition to standard composers to bring Night Springs alive.

EMI Music Publishing has partnered once again with Remedy Entertainment to bring indie-rock artist Kasabian and Mercury-Prize winner Ed Harcourt into the fold. Kasabian will be using their single “Club Foot” for the game, while Ed Harcourt will offer his own “Watching the Sun Come Up”.

Oskari Häkkinen, Head of Franchise Development at Remedy, also had this to share: “to spice things up a little more, Alan’s old-time buddy and literary agent Barry Wheeler has become the manager of the game’s seminal rock-band Old Gods of Asgard – expect a brand new single to be included with the game!”

It should be another great adventure with Alan Wake this February 15, which will be available on Xbox Live Arcade.

[showhide type=”pressrelease”]Stockholm, Sweden – January 16, 2012 – EMI Music Publishing Scandinavia and Remedy Entertainment today announced that Remedy’s upcoming XBLA title Alan Wake’s American Nightmare will feature a duo of EMI songwriters and composers, namely “Club Foot” which is performed by British indie-electronica-rockers Kasabian and “Watching the Sun Come Up” by English singer-songwriter and Mercury-Prize winner Ed Harcourt.

“Having already worked with Remedy on their previous Alan Wake title we were more than happy to continue our relationship with them and I believe that our combined ability to select and supervise moody tracks for Remedy’s upcoming action-adventure will result in a better gameplay experience.” said Andreas Olsson, VP Sales at EMI Music Publishing Scandinavia.

“Music played an important role in the original Alan Wake and we’ve carried that tradition over to American Nightmare with an exceptionally strong selection of original and licensed songs”, said Oskari Häkkinen, Head of Franchise Development at Remedy “and to spice things up a little more, Alan’s old-time buddy and literary agent Barry Wheeler has become the manager of the game’s seminal rock-band Old Gods of Asgard – expect a brand new single to be included with the game!”[/showhide]
