I love when game companies support game music and musicians. I love it even more when we get a rare vinyl release for a game soundtrack. There’s a really cool vinyl coming for upcoming 3DS title Splinter Cell 3D. This project began its life as the original soundtrack for Splinter Cell Chaos Theory, composed by musical badass Amon Tobin. That soundtrack was remixed by several artists and released as a remix album by Ninja Tune. Now that remix album has been turned into the Splinter Cell 3D soundtrack, and a special vinyl version release has just been announced.
Available for $30 at UbiWorkshop, this vinyl comes with 3D glasses to view the sweet inner sleeve. It’s a 180 gram double LP that sounds great. I know because I checked the streaming samples here. If you’re down, please buy either the digital or vinyl version of this release. We’ve got to support releases like this so they’ll keep making them.
