EA Sports announces tracklisting of in-game FIFA 09 soundtrack featuring MGMT, The Ting Tings, Fratellis, Kasabian, Kooks, Duffy, Sam Sparro, Hot Chip Lykke Li, The Black Kids
GUILDFORD, UK. – August 14, 2008 – Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ: ERTS) today unveiled the complete music track listing for EA SPORTS™ FIFA 09, in stores from October 2nd. In a game already being heralded for its revolutionary gameplay enhancements, the new FIFA 09 soundtrack features 42 songs from 21 nations across multiple genres to create an unprecedented global music event.
In what has become an annual tradition, FIFA 09 features a handpicked roster of Platinum acts and new artists from around the world that defines the sound of the coming football season. This year’s soundtrack includes tracks from Scotland’s finest, The Fratellis, and Irish trio, The Script – currently on course for the number 1 slot in this week’s UK album charts. Other UK highlights come from pop sensations The Ting Tings, Kasabian, The Kooks, Foals and Duffy.
“We have exceeded our annual challenge to create videogames’ preeminent international soundtrack,” said Steve Schnur, Worldwide Executive of Music and Marketing at EA. “No other game has been as influential with regards to new music, and FIFA 09 truly raises the bar worldwide. We’re excited that Brazilian fans of Curumin will hear Spain’s The Pinker Tones and Norway’s Datarock. We’re proud that Canadians who love Chromeo will discover Ladytron from England and Junkie XL from Holland. We want fans throughout France, Mexico and Germany to find that their favourite new song is by Señor Flavio from Argentina, DJ Bitman from Chile or Jupiter One from New York. FIFA 09 will take music globalization to a whole new level.”
This year EA SPORTS™ is changing the way sports games are played online, enabling 20 individuals playing fixed positions to play a single game of FIFA 09 at the same time. Instead of thinking as an individual player, now the gamer has to think and play as a team in Be A Pro: 10 vs. 10 Online Team Play for the PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system and Xbox 360®™ video game and entertainment system.
