Okay, I admit it, I likes me some jazz. And some of the best jazz ever was released on the Verve label. So, it's fun to see that the L.A. Noire soundtrack releases: L.A. Noire Official Soundtrack and L.A. Noire: Remixed includes the label.
It's a shame, however, that Verve didn't come into being until 1956 - about ten years after the game. But that's simple nitpicking.
Anyway, the soundtrack "was recorded in London’s legendary Abbey Road Studios and composed by Andrew Hale, of the band Sade and Sweetback and whose credits include scores for such films as Scott Pilgrim vs. the World.
"The soundtrack also features modern takes on the classic torch songs of the period. Three original vocal recordings were created for the soundtrack, all produced and written by Stephen Coates (ofThe Real Tuesday Weld) and featuring the guest vocals of Claudia Brucken (of Propaganda). Additional music was composed for the score by Woody Jackson, who won multiple awards for his work with Bill Elm on the original score of Red Dead Redemption."
Good news. On the Verve front, "L.A. Noire Remixed is the fruit of a partnership with Verve Records that provides a modern take on the music found throughout the world of L.A. Noire. This unique EP is a collection of six jazz standards re-interpreted by some of today's most acclaimed DJs, producers and remixers, including Dave Sitek, DJ Premier and Truth & Soul."
Yeah, cool... etc...
