Even the narrative is helped along by the game's culturally-driven music.įive of the game's composers sat down during the New York Film Festival this week to discuss creating the sounds of Los Santos. In Grand Theft Auto 5, a lot of the city's and the characters‘ heart is something that can't be conveyed in boisterous dialogue alone. A soundtrack can make or break a game, and many game composers and series have cult followings fervent for the music alone - just look at Final Fantasy or any other popular Japanese role-playing series, and the fans who still blare old Kirby and Castlevania tunes from their car speakers. If Grand Theft Auto 5 is a picture of Los Angeles' more underground and (sometimes) criminal culture, the game's soundtrack is a substance of sound that feeds that culture directly into your soul.
For the streets and hills of Los Santos, Rockstar vowed not only to continue the tradition, but ramp up the volume. Ribcage-rattling beats blaring from a dozen different radio stations and bawdy tongue-in-cheek commercials have become the staple soundtrack to players' adrenaline-laced adventures. One of Grand Theft Auto’s most iconic elements has always been its soundtrack.
