Darren Korb - EXILE: A Tribute to Supergiant Games '2019

Tracks list

For the last 10 years, Supergiant Games have produced brilliant games such as
Bastion, Transistor and Pyre. The striking artwork, memorable characters,
emotionally arresting storylines, fantastic music, iconic voice-overs and
immersive sound design have made Supergiant Games’ entries stand out in
the crowd. 

Because of the studio’s impact on the indie game scene over the last
decade, as well as fan’s deep love for Darren Korb’s music,
Materia Collective is proud to announce the 2019 release of EXILE: A Tribute to
Supergiant Games. This album is a veritable love letter to Korb’s musical
soundscapes and Supergiant Games’ fantastic storytelling. 

The video game community has a lot of love for Indie darling Supergiant Games
and not without good cause. The genres and gameplay of their games run the gamut
of post-apocalyptic western frontier action rpg Bastion, neo-noir inspired
strategy slasher Transistor, and visual novel ceremonial sportsball redemption
story Pyre. With EXILE: A Tribute to Supergiant Games we wanted to reflect the
diversity of those styles in our musical tribute to the original material. 

With EXILE: A Tribute to Supergiant Games we wanted to reflect the diversity of
styles in our musical tribute to the original material. As a result EXILE
features 49 tracks spanning the original soundtracks of Bastion, Transistor, and
Pyre. The album features musical styles ranging from big band, acapella, cosmic
space rock, 90s grunge, string quartets, brass quintets, hard rock and a number
of fantastic choir arrangements. Nearly 50 arrangers and over 120 collaborators
have converged to show their love for the games. Some are returning Materia
Collective Veterans such as Stemage, John Robert Matz and Videri String Quartet
while others are newcomers to Materia Collective like Jeff Penny and Danilo
Ciaffi. 

We would be remiss in highlighting the work of Darren Korb without mentioning
his long time collaborator Ashley Barrett who lends her wonderful voice to some
of the most memorable compositions in the 3 games. To pay tribute to the singers
in the Supergiant Games universe - we feature a number of extremely talented
vocalists on EXILE including and definitely not limited to Laura Intravia,
Sirenstar and Elizabeth Zharoff putting their own spin on roles of Red from
Transistor in their respective tracks. While singers such as Alejandro Espinosa
aka wolfman1405 and Stemage lend their talents to the voices of Zulf in
emotionally charged renditions of Mother, I’m Here and Setting Sail,
Coming Home from Bastion. 

The love and attention to the details of Korb’s compositions can be heard
throughout the album from every arranger and musician, and we hope you enjoy
listening as much as we enjoyed making it!
