    The soundtrack is clearly made by Amon Tobin, without him it would have been a lot different, and maybe not as good. And instead of Amon Tobin talking about his music, we have the directors and producers talking, taking all the credit.

    • @Gawillamon

      These aren't directors and producers, these are just audio guys that helped produce the audio for the game. Amon Tobin may not have even wanted to be interviewed or been available.

    watching this in 2021, still finding out new things about this game, makes me wanna replay it again.

    one thing that i loved about infamous
    and that was the music
    fucking loved it
    had a great feel

    He did a similar thing with Splinter Cell Chaos Theory. The music would change slightly depending on whether you were detected or not, or directly in combat. 4 stages for each music track and each level had its own music.

    very true.
    let's not forget the use of sound (everything you hear in the game apart from music and voice)
    sound can be very effective at supporting the story, gameplay and immersiveness, often at a subconscious level. which is why it is usually overlooked

    I love Amon Tobin and I love InFamous, but I never knew that he did the music for it! It makes sense though now that I think about it. Amon Tobin kicks ass!

  • @MakuthePOtHead

    every sound amon touches becomes something so awsome...

  • @sunset261
    @sunset261 14 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    anybody who hasn't played inFAMOUS needs to buy it NOW. I've played it about 5 times through and it is one of the most fun games I have ever played.

  • @Hex72

    Amazing game, so amazed to find out Amon did the soundtrack.

  • @mrkrinkle699

    I have met Amon Tobin live shook his hand thanked and told him thank you for your music. This was after an amazing concert he put on with a 30min Drum and Bass mix and then back to his stuff.

  • @TheEverfade
    @TheEverfade 13 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I love the soundtrack song, 'anything for trish'. It's not only a weird mix of instruments, but genres too. LOVE IT!

  • @zombiekanapa
    @zombiekanapa 15 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    amon tobin is the master of all sounds, godfather of sampling...

  • @ManuelColom
    @ManuelColom 12 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The title chosen for this video is really precise and accurate, as it shows specifically what was the contribution of Amon Tobin here: just a label on other guys work. So nothing new under the sun, so far. Great job guys, keep the title, and forget the fans and boeotians that can't learn anything from this kind of in-depth point of view.

  • @Pehmu
    @Pehmu 14 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Dude, wait, what...? Infamous has Amon Tobin's music? Ok, I'm so buying that game right away.

  • @CanadaGradeEh
    @CanadaGradeEh 15 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    My god, Amon Tobin is just fucking amazing.

  • @TahoeNevada
    @TahoeNevada 14 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    I have the soundtrack to "Splinter Cell 3: Chaos Theory" by him. It's awesome!

    He IS in the room all the time, you just don't see him. He's a supernatural being.

  • @chameliondude
    @chameliondude 15 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Really Cool, i assumed most games just recycled similar sounding music, but this is really ingenuative and cool

  • @libertarianjury
    @libertarianjury 14 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Wow. ...Awesome! Can they put these high, medium, and low elements on a curve of skin temperature, heartrate, muscle tension, and/or landspeed? That would be awesome connected to a feedback-looped car stereo, or feedback-looped clothes. Since Amon Tobin is naturally a soundtrack to my life, especially while driving, I think that'd be the hipcool next big thing.

  • @MakuthePOtHead
    @MakuthePOtHead 13 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    @VirtuaCory chaos theory was the best splitenter cell in 40 % becouse of amon tobins music. It created this special feeling that no other sc had before.

  • @CavemanZoinks
    @CavemanZoinks 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    This was probably one of the games with the best music, Amon Tobins music has a really great feel. His other compositions are great as well.

  • @johndickey2224
    @johndickey2224 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    This is arguably the greatest video game soundtrack of all time. It really complements a masterpiece game like infamous.

  • @Boogieforme
    @Boogieforme 14 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Awesome way of making music :)

  • @Ski_Fails_Galore
    @Ski_Fails_Galore 15 ปีที่แล้ว

    @karotomania : you'll find it on the itune store on the infamous soundtrack : "Stampton Bridge" must be the one, "The Courier" sounds similar both by Amon Tobin.

  • @RAYED2008

  • @Slah606

    We are NOT talking crap about them! We are frustrated 'cause they refused to show Amon, even though he was clearly advertised in the description.

  • @LukeSock

    Anyone know where I can find more videos of videogame music 'making of' videos?

  • @LeGronk
    @LeGronk 15 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I almost think about buying a PS3 and this game just to hear Amon.
    Not that I care more about one system over another, I just haven't paid attention to consoles for a long time.

  • @nac3rules
    @nac3rules 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    wow didnt now amon tobin did the music for infamous too!
    he's incredible!

  • @Miniboulette
    @Miniboulette 14 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    @snake56 You seem to be very good at answering everything but the question dude...
    Where is AMON TOBIN ??? Because, without Amon tobin, there is not music either, in case you didn't realize.

  • @LeGronk
    @LeGronk 15 ปีที่แล้ว

    I've already got it but it's not the same as experiencing it in the game, obviously. As I understand it, the in-game music is layered and event-driven in the game, like the one done for Chaos Theory.

  • @j0hnnycache
    @j0hnnycache 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    holy shit i had no idea. I always loved the music in this game and now its a million times more awesome haha

    Can I dislike this again? The title says Amon Tobin and his name is only mentioned once in the whole thing. I'm not even sure if he did any work from this or if the creators just wanted him to work on it. Change the title.

    @InfiniteFish1979 I wouldnt sau 100 percent, but generally i have to agree. I prefer older "musical" Tobin. i do not enjoy filtered drill n creep;) or what is that style hes pushing everywhere after supermodified LP which was still great. Permutations is my favourite.
