Laced Records has joined forces with Creative Assembly and Sega to release the original soundtrack to A Total War Saga: Troy on deluxe triple vinyl and double CD. Troy marks the first game in the BAFTA award-winning Total War series to focus on the ancient Bronze Age, and is the furthest back in history that the series has travelled in its tales of epic conquest. Inspired by The Iliad – Homer’s sweeping tale of romance and bloodshed – Troy focuses on the historical flashpoint of the Trojan War, bringing the conflict to life as never before. Troy’s score comprises cinematic soundscapes, ambient washes, pulsing grooves and basslines. Creative Assembly’s audio director and lead composer Richard Beddow and team created a vibrant, stylised fusion of elements from the Mediterranean, Balkan, North African, and Eastern cultures. Captivating choral performances by the Vanya Moneva Bulgarian female choir conjure an exciting and exotic sound, grounding the soundtrack in the ancient Aegean.
Released 29/4/22
