America Inc. (SCEA) announced today the North American soundtrack for Gran
Turismo(TM)5 Prologue, the fifth installment of the billion-dollar selling
racing franchise developed exclusively for PLAYSTATION(R)3 (PS3(TM)) by
Polyphony Digital Inc. The official Gran Turismo 5 Prologue soundtrack is
headlined by an in-game exclusive remix of Weezer’s "Automatic," from the
band’s upcoming album and an EL-P remix of Mars Volta’s "Goliath." The
soundtrack will provide North American racing fans with a High Definition (HD)
audio experience to complement Gran Turismo 5 Prologue’s stunning Full HD
visuals, and furthers Sony Computer Entertainment’s commitment to providing an
intermix of entertainment, music and games.
Gran Turismo 5 Prologue features an edgy soundtrack that mixes an
aesthetic audio blending of indie dance rock, electronica, classic rock and
brand new remixes by some of today’s hottest recording artists such as Weezer,
Mars Volta and DJ Shadow, among others. The Gran Turismo 5 Prologue
soundtrack enhances an already comprehensive driving experience, and it builds
on the historic success of past Gran Turismo soundtracks that have featured
original scores and licensed tracks from the biggest names in the recording
industry.
"The Gran Turismo 5 Prologue soundtrack gives fans the perfect audio
accompaniment to high-octane racing from Daytona to Eiger Nordwand," said Jeff
Reese, director, software marketing, SCEA. "The edgy variety of music
complements the pure adrenaline rush fans experience as they eclipse 200
miles-per-hour in the most authentic driving simulator around."
The North American version of Gran Turismo 5 Prologue’s soundtrack offers
fans a dozen exclusive singles from some of today’s hottest new artist such as
Justice, The Klaxons and Friendly Fires, and pulses with new tracks such as
"Love Love" made famous by Jimi Hendrix and interpolated by DJ Shadow, a
pioneer in instrumental hip-hop and famed producer. In addition to the
exclusive North American tracks and a new version of Gran Turismo theme song
