Fan-favorite Knowhere is the thriving mining port in the head of an extinct celestial being, full of shops with all sorts of things to do to while away the time. The Guardians visit Knowhere throughout their adventure, giving players an unforgettable and offbeat experience as they explore this infamous destination. Music was a crucial part of bringing Knowhere to life, and each location visited has its own unique sound. Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy: Welcome to Knowhere EP (Original Video Game Soundtrack) brings this music together and features six out of this world, out-of-this-world, funky and wonderful tracks inspired by alien techno, gritty industrial and new-age synthesizers.
All tracks were written, recorded and produced by BAFTA and IVOR NOVELLO nominated composer Richard Jacques. The bonus EP will be available on all well-known streaming platforms from April 8, 2022.
Jacques says: “I’m delighted that fans can now listen to these tracks and experience the full range of music we create for Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy have created. I myself grew up with dance and rock sounds as well as with classical music and synthesizers, to name just a few. This game celebrates musical diversity and I have been fortunate to be able to freely compose a soundtrack with Eidos-Montréal that incorporates inspirations, influences and idiosyncrasies found in everyday modern music.”
