I’m unhappy to say I can not proceed to compose music for MWII / Warzone. Over the previous couple of months the working dynamic with the audio director has grow to be more and more difficult and I don’t see any path ahead. As of now, I’m uncertain of the standing and launch plan for the soundtrack because it’s been taken out of my fingers.

While I don’t have any management over how the music is introduced in-game, what will likely be launched on the soundtrack isn’t my inventive intent with regard to mixing and mastering. Mike Dean was part of the artistic imaginative and prescient for the album in addition to mixer Frank Wolf. We have soundtrack masters in hand from Mike which sadly you’ll by no means get to listen to.

I wish to acknowledge the unimaginable exhausting work of the audio crew as an entire, and I hope you continue to take pleasure in it as a result of I put a lot work and energy into it. The rating options some great performances by musicians Baseck, Brain Mantia, and M.B. Gordy. I’m really appreciative of the outreach to date and I really feel a duty to the followers to stay genuine in my strategy with the sport and its sound which I’ve been part of creating for a few years.
