01/09/17 - ARK: Survival Evolved score

Sumthing Else Music Works has released Gareth Coker's score for the video game ARK: Survival Evolved.

The score was recorded by the Philharmonia Orchestra at Abbey Road Studios in London.

For his latest musical journey and collaboration with Studio Wildcard on ARK: Survival Evolved, Coker explains, "The scope and size of the score of ARK: Survival Evolved, whilst intimidating, has pushed me to write in ways I didn't know I was capable of. And to cap it all off, with a gargantuan 3-day recording session in London with the amazing Philharmonia Orchestra really helped glue the entire score together. For the two years I've been working on the game, I've been able to see the lightning in a bottle that Studio Wildcard captured, and watch it blossom and grow on Twitch and YouTube throughout the early access program, into the monster it has become today. I can't wait to revisit the Island and beyond with more music for the upcoming expansions to the game!"
