After myself and THP had ‘accidentally’ shot each other for the 50th time on the new Grand Theft Auto online Multiplayer I jumped in a vehicle and turned on the radio to hear Juliette Lewis playing Cosmic Disco friends and favourites, David Gilmour Girls’, remix of her band’s track ‘Inside the Cage’.
Massive praise to the lads for getting on the soundtrack of what is sure to be one of the biggest selling games of all time (or biggest selling anything for that matter).
Other highlights on the various in game radio stations are Francois K’s ‘Electro-Choc’ station (think Justice, Sebastian, Boyz Noize, Kavinsky, Nitzer Ebb, Black Devil Disco Club, Padded Cell etc), Karl Lagerfeld’s disco station (throwing THP out of a tail-less helicopter to the strains of the Skatt Bros – Walk The Night being a particular high point) and a cosmic ambient station called ‘the journey’ filled with Tangerine Dream, Jean-Michel Jarre and Philip Glass tracks.
Reports that Baggy and Niles turned down an ingame version of the Makin’ Music podcast are being vehemently denied…
