Ubisoft and Laced Records have teamed up to offer the music of Assassin’s Creed IV Black Flag on vinyl. The adventures of the pirate Edward Kenway are highlighted with a new cover illustrated by Jeff Langevin, accompanied by visuals from the Ubisoft archives.
The soundtrack, composed by Brian Tyler, blends orchestral influences, epic percussion, and electronic touches, while avoiding pirate clichés. Joe Henson, Alexis Smith (The Flight), and Christian Henson composed the music for the multiplayer mode, while Olivier Deriviere created the original score for Freedom Cry, in collaboration with La Troupe Makandal.
Two editions celebrate this work: The 5LP box set (76 key tracks) offers a complete immersion into the game’s universe, including music from the multiplayer modes and the narrative campaign Freedom Cry, all in a carefully crafted package (original illustrations, archive visuals, rigid case, and spine sleeves). The double vinyl (36 key tracks) retraces the musical universe of the game, in a carefully crafted package with original illustration, archive visuals, thick outer sleeve, and printed inner sleeves.
