Tony Hawk defends new ‘Pro Skater 3+4’ soundtrack: “Discovery is half the fun”
The latest additions include 100 Gecs and Fontaines D.C. The post Tony Hawk defends new ‘Pro Skater 3+4’ soundtrack: “Discovery is half the fun” appeared first on NME.
Tony Hawk has defended the new soundtrack for Pro Skater 3+4, which features a mix of OG anthems and music from newer artists.
Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4 is due out later this year and reworks 2001’s Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 and the 2002 follow-up. The game will include a number of familiar levels and OG skateboarders but developers have also promised new additions to the iconic series.
Earlier this month, the first wave of artists for the Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4 soundtrack were announced. CKY’s Jackass anthem ‘96 Quite Bitter Beings’, Motorhead’s ;Ace Of Spades’ and ‘Amoeba’ from Adolescents are all set to return from Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 while Gang Starr’s Mass Appeal has been brought back from Pro Skater 4, alongside new additions from artists such as Turnstile, Run The Jewels and Kendrick Lamar.
Yesterday (March 27) another batch of artists was announced including Iron Maiden and De La Soul, who were both featured on the soundtrack for Pro Skater 4. However, 3+4 will feature different songs from their back catalogue with Iron Maiden’s ‘Number Of The Beast’ replaced by ‘2 Minutes To Midnight’ and De La Soul’s ‘Rock Co.Kane Flow’ taking the place of ‘Oodles Of O’s’.
100 Gecs’ ‘Hollywood Baby’, Fontaines D.C.’s ‘Boys In The Better Land’ and Kennyhoopla’s collab with Travis Barker ‘Hollywood Sucks’ will also feature on the soundtrack for Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4.
Defending his decision to change up the soundtrack, Hawk wrote on Instagram: “It was my choice to pick some different songs by the same artists featured in ‘Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4 OST’. I’m hoping that discovery is half the fun, and a big reason that these soundtracks resonated in the first place. So listen and enjoy the ride. More to come… both old and new.”
Activision previously said the soundtrack is designed to “capture the spirit of modern skate culture”. You can check out the confirmed soundtrack on Spotify here.
It’s also been reported that Hawk demanded OG skater Bam Margera be included in Pro Skater 3+4 after originally being cut.
In other news, Coldplay will be teaming up with Stromae and Pomme for an extended take on their viral Arcane anthem ‘Ma Meilleure Ennemie’. A deluxe edition of the Arcane season two soundtrack is due out next month.
