Wheelman

Features the work of composers Jorge and Guillermo Badolato.

Madrid, Spain - May 12th, 2009 - Composers Jorge & Guillermo Badolato ( www.badolatomusic.com) are glad to announce they worked in the composition and production of the soundtrack for next-gen videogame Wheelman™, developed by Newcastle´s Midway Studios & Tigon Studios (Vin Diesel´s video game company, who also starres the game). The game has been published worldwide by Ubisoft® and Midway.

Jorge & Guillermo Badolato created half of the multi-layered interactive in-game soundtrack, the music for most of the cutscenes of the game that and also did part of the music for promotion trailers for Wheelman.

The game has a hi-energy & frenetic action score featuring a mixture of actual Hollywood´s cinematic car chase films, blending powerful orchestral textures, techno-electronica, percussion and spanish/flamenco & electric guitars (recorded live by Guillermo Badolato).

“It's been a honnor for us to work with Midway on this title, there has been an excellent understanding with Craig Beattie (Wheelman´s Audio Director) right from the start. Working on a game such amazing as this one is a blast!” Said Jorge & Guillermo.

Craig Beattie, Wheelman Audio Director/Midway UK: "Working with Badolatomusic was a complete joy. They delivered 50% of the in-game musical scores for Wheelman and most of the cutscene music. There music fitted perfectly with the tense missions and atmosphere of the game. When things got tight and changes to cutscenes where needed they re-scored the music to fit, they delivered time and time again without one complaint. I highly recommend these guys as professional and accomplished musicians".

Wheelman it´s available for the Xbox 360®, PLAYSTATION®3 and PC from March 24, 2009, in North America and March 27, 2009, in Europe. For more information on Wheelman, please visit http://www.wheelmangame.com Other tracks from the game were composed by Rod Abernethy.
