August 12^th, 2004 (12:00am) - Electronic Arts today announced that world-renowned DJ Paul Oakenfold is contributing to the stellar lineup of Hollywood artists lending their talent to the highly anticipated game, GoldenEye: Rogue Agent. As music supervisor, Oakenfold will compose an original score and create the game’s overarching musical personality with hard-driving, rhythmic beats hand-crafted for every mission.

Oakenfold has enjoyed two decades of worldwide acclaim as one of the top dance and electronic music DJs. Since entering the world of theatrical music composition four years ago, Oakenfold has created scores and other musical contributions for such high-profile motion pictures as Get Carter (2000), Swordfish (2001), Planet of the Apes (2001), The Bourne Identity (2002), Austin Powers: Goldmember (2002), and The Matrix Reloaded (2003), as well as the theme song for the NBC TV show “Las Vegas.”

“By allowing fans to step into the shoes of the ‘bad guys’, GoldenEye: Rogue Agent is the most exciting, cutting-edge episode of the Bond video game series to date,” said Patrick Gilmore, Executive Producer at EALA. “We feel that to deliver a blockbuster entertainment experience, this game deserves a dynamic musical score and world-class production values that reflect the rebellious and original style of the game itself. We wanted the best of the best, and this lineup is just that.”
