Alien Isolation - Soundtrack

Description

In a world filled with licensed games that quickly rake in money, Alien: Isolation was a breath of fresh air. Its release in 2014 marked a turning point in the history of inspired and faithful adaptations in the realm of video games.With its retro-futuristic visuals, subtly haunting sound design, perfectly tense gameplay, and AI brilliantly ahead of its time, Creative Assembly's masterpiece presented a different kind of survival horror in the air ducts, well-suited to the Weyland-Yutani universe.Ten years later, iam8bit is proud to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Alien: Isolation by offering fans something unprecedented: The game's legendary soundtrack, presented on high-quality vinyl. This is the Alien: Isolation vinyl soundtrack, a 1xLP containing the best tracks from composers The Flight and Christian Henson, pressed on blood-green vinyl.In keeping with the game's grim and lo-fi artistic design, the music of Isolation is a journey through tense corporate steel, dripping with a relentless atmosphere that often transports the listener directly into the cold, endless expanse of outer space. However, not all is dark—much like Amanda Ripley, the music of Isolation moves forward through willpower and unexpected moments of warm hope.For the illustration, we called upon Nimit Malavia, a longtime friend of iam8bit, to create artwork that captures the immense and endless terror of the Alien world; not just the terror in the wake of an unspeakable monstrosity, but the terror in the realization that we are cosmically alone.For, after all, in space, no one can hear you scream.
