Oakenfold to score Bourne Conspiracy

Euphoric | March 24, 2008 | News | Misc 
Paul Oakenfold is a legendary DJ of world renown and he should bring a real sense of intensity and fast paced action to the Bourne Conspiracy. Heres to hoping that the music that made the films so wonderful can translate into the game world!
The Jason Bourne series of action spy flicks can be readily identified by their star, Matt Damon, and their hyperkinetic atmosphere, from camera movement to plot pacing. While Sierra Entertainment's upcoming game inspired by the original Robert Ludlum Bourne novels won't feature Damon's likeness, it could still match the dynamic tone of the popular films.


To that end, Sierra today announced that The Bourne Conspiracy's score will be handled by renowned DJ and producer Paul Oakenfold. Calling himself a longtime fan of the series, Oakenfold said in a statement that "the pace of the game is an ideal match for my musical tempo and style."

Gamers eager to get a taste of what to expect from the Bourne Conspiracy soundtrack can catch selections of the score performed live by Oakenfold and members of the Florida Classical Symphony. Dubbed "The Bourne Sessions," the concert will take place Tuesday from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. Eastern at the Winter Music Conference 2008 in Miami, and will feature an appearance by Gnarls Barkley's Cee-Lo Green.

    I can imagine "Ready Steady Go" while on the run already. His kind of music is also great for fighting scenes.

      In that movie, the scene and the song did not fit together...at all. The song sounds a bit too techno for Bourne, but it has the perfect tempo and beat for a chase scene.
