“The work that Jesper has done on the DARKSIDERS II soundtrack is truly inspiring. He captured the essence of the universe so well, in fact, that I listen to the tracks while I’m working to get myself in the right frame of mind.”

“It’s been an absolute pleasure working with Jesper. He’s an extremely talented composer and an avid gamer, who not only created an amazing soundtrack for DARKSIDERS II, but intuitively knew how to cater each composition to achieve maximum musical impact for players.”

“Jesper Kyd’s score for ASSASSIN’S CREED II brings players into the Italian Renaissance by providing a true sense of depth for the poignant moments, while also giving a jolt of adrenaline to the action-packed sequences. We are thrilled to have Jesper Kyd back with us in making ASSASSIN’S CREED II an epic title on all levels.”

Patrice Desilets, Creative Director, ASSASSIN’S CREED & ASSASSIN’S CREED II

“We listened to many composers before finding the right person for ASSASSIN’S CREED. Jesper Kyd turned out to be the perfect match for the title because he is able to create epic historical pieces fused with both traditional medieval instruments and modern synth sounds. For ASSASSIN’S CREED we wanted the score to capture the gruesome atmosphere of medieval warfare but also be edgy and contemporary. Jesper not only achieved this balance but also underlined the changes in gameplay and pacing in a way that immerses the player even further into the ASSASSIN’S CREED experience.”

Jade Raymond, Producer, ASSASSIN’S CREED

“We knew a mix of diverse musical textures would better serve our game than simply using an orchestra, so we approached Jesper Kyd who is renowned for his versatility as well as producing scores that go beyond the traditional mould. Jesper has fashioned the kind of grandeur usually associated with the cinematic sound of an orchestra, though he only used analogue sounds and solo instruments, and delivers a deeply emotional impact with a minimum of bombast. His elaborate, cerebral and intuitive treatment was exactly what we were looking for.”

Matthew Florianz, Audio Director, THE CHRONICLES OF SPELLBORN

“Jesper Kyd is one of the most cutting-edge and unique composers writing music for any medium. Once you’ve heard the HITMAN: BLOOD MONEY soundtrack his music will own you!”
