No more symphonic minimalism, abstract soft keyboards or female operatic vocals – all romance completely dried up. In Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood (the continuation of Assassin's Creed 2) the central figure Ezio Auditore is no longer an emotional young man, experiencing the death of the family. He appears now as the master of the Assassins, and his main mission - revenge. Bloody-grim stories of Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood do no longer need the full of femininity musical matter, atmospheric ambient and flowing melodies, peacefully outspreaded over Florence and Venice of the Renaissance - the place and time of Assassin's Creed 2. Heroes and events of "The Brotherhood" live in ancient Rome and the arenas of combat operations are displayed with a deadly sound: the drums of war - rough and epic. They are not derived from the tools properly, like embody the broken arms, and mostly dreadful male chorals emphasize the power of the Roman Empire.
As we promised here they are – three brand new tracks of full value posted at official Jesper KydFacebook page and www.jesperkyd.com. Master Assassin is a typical action theme in AC2 style with the guitar and epic percussion, Borgia Occupation – suspense-theme with whispering voices, and City of Rome is a grand city theme, made on Dreams of Venice basis.
As we wrote early, album style varies from mix of electronic and neo-classic with choral parts to east ethnic motifs with heavy percussion. In general, soundtrack is more darker than Assassin’s Creed II music.
Album will be available on November 16. Composer is Jesper Kyd.
