NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sumthing Else Music Works, the premier record label dedicated to video game soundtracks, and Plarium, one of the world’s fastest growing developers of social and mobile games, present a new concept soundtrack album, “Five Worlds of Plarium” featuring the original themes composed by Jesper Kyd for Plarium’s major game worlds. With over 130 million registered users, Plarium is consistently ranked among Facebook’s top hardcore game developers. Kyd is internationally renowned for his iconic music from the historical action-adventure series Assassin’s Creed.
“Five Worlds of Plarium” is a unique compilation album comprising Jesper Kyd’s distinct and yet musically diverse soundtrack themes spanning all five of Plarium’s game worlds – from sailing the high seas in Pirates: Tides of Fortune™ to the mystical world of ancient Greece in Sparta: War of Empires™ and the dark medieval fantasy of Stormfall: Age of War, to the advanced military warfare of Soldiers Inc. and the apocalyptic sci-fi of Total Domination.
“Five Worlds of Plarium” will be available digitally on iTunes, Amazon.com, Sumthing.com and all major music streaming sites on June 2, 2015. Additionally, the album is also available to purchase in-game, launching today with Soldiers Inc.™ on Facebook.
“This album includes all the main themes I’ve written for Plarium’s games over the last couple of years,” said Jesper Kyd. “It’s a really diverse collection reflecting my interest in combining different music styles but they all share a sense of creative fun and adventure. I hope you will enjoy them as much as I did writing them.”
