New Beck Songs From The Playstation Game 'Sound Shapes'

posted in: Music News

There seems to be quite a lot of buzz going on right now in the world of Beck. Recently we told you about his new upcoming “album” Song Reader, a fully illustrated book of sheet music, and that he has contributed three songs to a new Playstation 3 game called Sound Shapes. Now you can hear those songs and watch how they interact with the levels and gameplay.

Check out “Cities.”

As you can see, every aspect of the game is integrated with the music, and advancing through the level brings the gamer through the song. The light and airy sounds of Beck’s tracks seem to fit perfectly with the soft and playful design and colors of the game. The best part is that, unlike most games, the songs do not just repeat over and over again, but actually go somewhere so you don’t, you know, go insane. Sound Shapes was released Tuesday, August 7th by Pyramid Attack. Check out more after the jump…
