观看红牛音乐节上的《The Music of Red Dead Redemption 2》表演

Red Dead Redemption 2 的作曲家及 Rockstar 的长期合作者 Woody Jackson，最近在洛杉矶的红牛音乐节上演绎了游戏中的精选原声配乐。
 
“Jackson translated his work from screen to stage in two live performances, giving game and music fans alike the opportunity to experience Red Dead Redemption 2 in a way unlike they’d heard, seen, or felt before,”Nerdist 说。“Drawing from the almost 200 missions that he scored for the sequel, the guitarist and composer brought together more than 30 musicians to recalibrate and reimagine his own music in a completely new way. The composer’s broad and diverse influences flowed seamlessly through the cues that comprised the hourlong set, while projected screens enveloped the audience and echoed the game’s dusty, haunting, dangerous landscapes.”

Jackson 在实验乐队 Senyawa、知名歌手 Petra Haden、萨克风演奏家 Colin Stetson 和鼓手 Jon Theodore 的帮助下，精彩还原了配乐中的数首精选曲目。与之同时，观众们也沉浸在一场令人难忘的独特盛宴中，在精心设计的光影特效映照下目睹投射在屏幕上的游戏画面。
 
“Bursting red and purple lights filled the studio with dynamic energy and fog machines in the back provided an eerie and beautiful touch,”mxdwn 说。“Little details like that throughout the performance showed how much thought was put into it to give the audience a truly unique experience... The performance was filled with many twists and turns, and the journey was incredible. It was a very special show that felt very remarkable. Jackson and his stellar guests really provided a wonderful night, and it was great to be surrounded by top-notch musicians and artists bringing their best.”
 
“It never ceases to amaze how music can transport you right back to a place, right back to a certain moment,”Gaming Trend 说。“Woody’s music, and the orchestra, did precisely that. The orchestra was tight and precise, a testament not only to the high quality and professionalism of the musicians, but also the skill of the conductor. Another aspect of the musicians’ performance was how much they enjoyed themselves. They grinned at each other between songs, and bobbed their heads and tapped their feet to the music. You could tell that they were having fun.”

观众们在社交媒体上与 Funhaus 的 Alanah Pearce 以及 游戏主播 @PancakePow 分享了他们对当晚体验的热爱。
