Codemasters brings MUSIC 2000, the leading home music creation brand, to PC CD-ROM complete with virtual jamming sessions online.
Codemasters will launch the first PC extension of its award-winning, best-selling music creation software as MUSIC 2000 in May with a RRP of £34.99.
MUSIC 2000 builds on the phenomenal success of Codemasters’ Music brand, launched on PlayStation in November 1998 where it revolutionised the games-only perception of the console and was voted "Most Innovative Product" in the Official PlayStation Awards.
Now firmly established as the most comprehensive, easy-to-use, and flexible music creation package, MUSIC 2000’s PC CD-ROM incarnation makes the brand stand head and shoulders above the competition.
In a cluttered PC market, MUSIC 2000 will enter the genre as the most extensive and powerful music creation package available for home machines and span many musical styles. It will also introduce a unique facility that enables two players to join in simultaneous music jamming sessions over the Internet.
MUSIC 2000 enables bedroom DJs and wannabe producers to construct and remix music tracks and create and direct accompanying graphics-based "videos" with ease. The software is also powerful enough for skilled musicians to write and arrange tracks with their own edited riffs and manipulated sounds.
Developed by Jester Interactive, the MUSIC 2000 project is led by respected gaming musician Tim Wright who aligned gaming and clubbing culture with his work on Wipeout and its sequel.
