Hudson Mohawke shares new track "Play N Go"

Hudson Mohawke has created a complete original soundtrack to Ubisoft’s upcoming open-world game, Watch Dogs 2. The track “Play N Go” ahead of worldwide release tomorrow.

From Ross Birchard:
“With Play n Go, I really wanted to create something that could be both big and anthemic but also strips back to some tough, driving percussion at points. I feel like both these motifs are reflections of the gameplay also; whether you want to go in all guns blazing or play in a more tense, stealthy style. Above all, I really wanted to keep the rebellious nature of the game within the track, crunchy DIY sounding with a victorious kind of cheeky undertone.”

Set in the San Francisco Bay Area, Watch_Dogs 2 invites players to step inside the shoes of brilliant hacker Marcus Holloway on his journey to pull off the Hack of the Century: a crippling shutdown of ctOS 2.0, an invasive technology used by the powerful to silently control everyday citizens. Stylistically ‘Ded Sec – Watch Dogs 2 (OST)’ casts a sound now synonymous with Hudson Mohawke. The harks back to his earlier work fusing electronics, hip hop and the beat scene – but hints towards Hudson’s love of classic science fiction scores.
