Yooka & Laylee got a glow-up, so of course, the soundtrack had to as well. 🎢 Brand-new tracks + fully orchestrated classics from Wise, Kirkhope, Burke, Murdoch & Griffin β€” with the City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra bringing it all to life. Turn it up! πŸ”Š

Yooka-Replaylee launches October 9th.

Had lots of fun doing LOUD TRAILER versions of Mr Kirkhope's Yooka themes for this. Also very handy that we have Chris Suth around, always delivers!πŸ”ŠπŸŽ΅

I don't really know what I'm on about most of the time, but Mr Linneman does. Heed his advice on all things performance and platformers! πŸ˜„

Suth has one of the craziest CV's a voice actor could ever dream of, despite primarily being a programmer.
Always great to have him in the booth!πŸŽ™οΈ

"Images tell the story but the music tells you how to feel": Grant Kirkhope on video game music, Yooka-Replaylee, and more (Exclusive) Grant Kirkhope wrote the soundtrack for so many gamers in my age group, and while I didn’t get a chance to talk to him in person at GDC, I did have a chance to chat with him over email.

Wouldn't it be Grant if there was an interview about the magical music of Yooka-Laylee?

Check out this recent interview with the legendary Grant Kirkhope from Sportskeeda, talking about his career, Yooka-Replaylee and MORE!

Started Echoes of Wisdom last night. Zelda music is just different gravy. This track is outrageously good

LOVE that sneaky intro to Rutile.

As always, amazing work!

Love this! 😍

You're right, the original is amazing. Assumed it might be because of nostalgia but it's still so so good

You can't beat a @grantkirkhope.bsky.social boss theme!

It's so exciting getting the orchestral mixes back. Can't wait for people to hear it πŸ¦ŽπŸ¦‡πŸŽ΅

I have a poor memory and it was a long time ago, plus stuff probably got cut long before it reached audio! Your best bet for that would be finding someone who worked in DesignπŸ˜…

Hah! Yeah that was my first project as lead sound designer. One of, it not my favourite project during my time at Tt.

We had a really great team with lots of experience on handheld consoles and lots of creative freedom, it was a blast to work on πŸ₯·

Let's try this again...

I'm Matt, I've been working in games for about 12 years now, shipped about 10 of them (most of them Lego games in the first few years) and I now make music and sounds for Playtonic Games.

Currently working on Yooka-Replaylee! πŸ¦ŽπŸ¦‡
