Like Sudeki the game, the Soundtrack is a journey ? aa journey through many musical ideas and landscapes. Tom Colvin has composed a soundtrack that Nile Rodgers sees as “both complimenting the game and standing alone as a superior musical accomplishment”. New Brightwater is a pastoral acoustic piece that quickly picks up the pace and gets things really moving with some up-tempo futuristic jazz that would not sound out of place in a smokey Parisian nightclub. The Temple of Mo has its roots in Indian Raga Music. Tom Colvin is well versed in world music and with The Temple of Mo, he modernizes the sound with use of block-rocking house beats. Shandani-Mo starts out as an ambient piece coupled with Latin flavored percussion but quickly gives way to a very festive explosion of found sounds, acoustic guitars, handclaps and chanting. Rumblebelly Canyon is drenched in the Americana-Folk tradition with quiet acoustic guitar pickings and a slide guitar that would make even Lead Belly envious. Devil’s Beat Canyon utilizes the renowned Apache drum break made famous by hundreds of rappers and hip-hop producers worldwide - Colvin adds his own twist with some chainsaw sounding electric guitar and eerie keyboard sounds. “The effect is haunting. Overall, the soundtrack’s vastness will appeal to both gaming and music fans alike. Sudeki is fuziontastically funky, and atmospherically ferocious. Open your mind and let it in.”- Nile Rodgers
