• Paul McCartney Writing Music for Bungie



      What happens when you combine two powerful forces? While scientists work on figuring that one out, I have a few ideas of my own. Many Twitter revelations have been made in the past, but this is definitely one to create some hype.

      This morning Paul McCartney sent out a very interesting tweet that read:

      “I’m really excited to be working on writing music with @bungie, the studio that made Halo.” - Paul pic.twitter.com/lRxl8Jr8
      Here is the actual tweet:


      As you may recall, Paul McCartney said that while he doesn't play video games, he doesn't deny his interest in the market and explains that it allows his music to reach a different audience. His life is too busy to be able to sit down and record albums, much less play games.

      He told Zeit Online:

      (translated)
      Actually, I'm sitting now in music for a computer game. This is the song that I abplage experiencing. I was asked if I could not imagine such a thing, and found it fascinating. Moreover, this is a fascinating market. A new computer game is selling these days so much better than a new CD. And you reach a different audience. Probably in this way many young people for the first time my music will be heard in a video game. And perhaps it is for them so inspiring for me as the Jazz.
      Since Bungie signed on with Activision, back in April of 2010, they have not come out to inform the gaming world of their plans. However, due to the legal fight with Jason West and Vince Zampella of Infinity Ward, the contract states that Bungie will will create Destiny. GameSpot shares that Destiny is "a series of four 'massively multiplayer-style…sci-fantasy, action shooter games,' to be delivered every other year beginning next fall. In between those releases, the studio was expected to produce downloadable expansion packs under the code name 'Comet.'"

      Although Bungie is still tight lipped on this topic, we look forward to bringing you more news on this project with Bungie and Paul McCartney as it is made available.
