WAY excited to hear that so many excellent composers are part of the team! My biggest concern when hearing Mansell was composing was "huh, it took five composers to make all the music for Mass Effect 2, so how on earth is he going to carry the game all on his own?" This answers that question in one of the best possible ways.

Also, I'll give a mention to Jack Wall for being Sam Hulick's partner on a lot of those formative cues from Mass Effect, such as the theme. Jack's stuff is great too, and while I would have loved to see him work on Mass Effect 3 as well, I think this entire team of Mass Effect veterans (especially Hulick in my opinion) give me a lot of poise and pure excitement about the Mass Effect 3 soundtrack.

Last thought: I'm glad that *not* scoring Mass Effect 3 gave Jack Wall and Jimmy Hinson time work on some personal projects. Hinson's album Impostor Nostalgia was an instant classic for me (along with Contingency, which has some Mass Effect 2 outtakes!), and both Jack and Sam (and Cris and Sascha and Christopher!) contributed to Novum Initium, a charity album. I haven't gotten to the latter yet, but you should definitely check all those albums out.

Just saw on Facebook that the music he scored in the CE trailer was from 0.13 - 0.34; I'm guessing the music in that trailer is a mix from a number of the composers :)

I KNEW it! It was VERY similar to Shepard's Return, which was also done by him. Amazing stuff!

No, it's more of a ME1 Victory OST.

Yay for Sam Hulick. I can't imagine ME without him. And there's no doubt that Clint Mansell is a musical genius. I love his work. Moon's soundtrack would have to be my favourite.

This is one amazing team. I liked the sound of that teaser, definitely had that ME feel.

I can't believe this. I've had such a ****ty week, and this totally saved my mood!

Bioware really is going all in with this game. I was afraid that ME3 would be orchestral only, but this awesome list of musicians just proves that it will have all kinds of music in it! My mind is blown.

Guys, plural: both Cris and Sascha composed for not only Arrival, but also Katsumi's DLC.

I have one lingering fear now, which is that Christopher, Cris and Sascha are on the list because BioWare is reusing their music from the previous DLCs. I hope they're actually providing new pieces. Seems like a pretty safe bet that Mansell and Hulick are providing new pieces though.

I wonder if the main menu music is done by Sam, seeing as he re-tweeted Billy Buskell's tweet about listening to it for 15 mins before firing up a new game... Wonder if it's that teaser track in the OP... Man I can't wait for this game

Have to disagree there. It's almost as if Shepard's Return was a basis for the unboxing music in terms of core melody. They're VERY similar.

This is an awesome team of composers! I also loved the tracks from Overlord and LotSB, and it's great to see Sam is back.

When do you guys think we'll have some more tracks? Only with the demo maybe?


I belive Rob has said earlier that the demo will contain pretty much finalized music, albeit not fully mastered. So that's a yes :)


Can't wait to hear it!

Some stuff from Rob Blake on Twitter:

Me: @VectorWarrior How much of it is new stuff and how much is reused music? Thanks either way, and good luck finishing up ME3!

Rob: @jkohlmann We reference old pieces and themes where it fits but the vast majority is original as there's a lot more emotion and depth in ME3

Very excited to hear this as well! Puts my fears to rest.

I'm pretty sure he meant from 0:13-1:34, because that's when the version of classic ME theme used at the end of "Normandy Reborn" kicks in.  Also, here's the tweet where Sam confirms the piano piece from the demo was Mansell's work.
