Hudson Mohawke To Score Ded Sec – Watch Dogs 2

Check out new cut 'Shanghaied' now...

Hudson Mohawke is set to score new computer game Ded Sec – Watch Dogs 2.

The producer released new album 'Lantern' last year, and since then has committed himself to a gruelling live schedule and production work on ANOHNI's startlingly inventive 'Hopelessness' full length.

Now the Glasgow don is set to embark on yet another project, providing the score for Ubisoft's Ded Sec – Watch Dogs 2.

He explains:

"I get really restless working on projects that are expected to fall within certain “genres”, when I’ve always made all kinds of music. Working on a soundtrack was a really exciting and refreshing prospect for me, especially considering the themes involved in the game are things I’m also passionate about. In 2016, this project, along with the ANOHNI LP, have allowed me to experiment and have the opportunity to reach new audiences with my music without needing a “genre” stamp. I think that’s why Ubisoft approached me to work alongside them in developing the game as a whole – I wanted to use the palette of some cult sci fi soundtracks but incorporating my own style. It’s been a real learning experience and even a challenge at some points but very rewarding in terms of expressing myself creatively."

New cut 'Shanghaied' is set to appear in the game – check it out below.

‘Ded Sec – Watch Dogs 2 (OST)’ will be released through Warp on November 11th.
