Feature film 'music house' Groove Addicts signed to compose music for Splinter Cell: Conviction...
Getting ready to clear his name and evade attempts by Third Echelon to capture him, it's been confirmed today that Sam Fisher's upcoming adventure, Splinter Cell: Conviction, will be scored by outfit, Groove Addicts.
Predominantly experienced in composing music for a range of feature film trailers such as 300, Spider-Man 3, and Michael Moore's Sicko, Conviction marks the first time that Groove Addicts will have scored an entire videogame - though they've previously written music used in trailers for Call of Juarez and Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare.
"It's the most definitive music I have heard to date for the series. I would go so far to call it 'classic Splinter Cell,' " says Simon Pressey, Ubisoft Montreal's Technical & Artistic Director of Audio.
Groove Addicts' Zarin concurs, "We are ecstatic to be involved with this incredible Ubisoft AAA franchise. The fact that this is our first game says a lot about the caliber of music we at Groove Addicts work so very hard to deliver everyday. Michael Nielsen and Kaveh Cohen have a rare knack to consistently create great music in a timely manner, with our clients' vision in mind."
Splinter Cell: Conviction is pencilled in for release on both Xbox 360 and PC in November.
