Music to Level Up Your Day: Mass Effect 2

I don't know much about musical theory, nor am I a musically inclined person. However, I do love to listen to video game soundtracks. Who doesn't? They can be a powerful listening experience in their own right, or be as evocative as the scores composed for film. Each of these posts will feature music tracks from a single game title, or series/franchise in some rare cases.

Composer: Jack Wall, Sam Hulick, David Kates, Jimmy Hinson

North American Release Date: January 2010

Set within the Milky Way galaxy in the year 2183, when civilization is threatened by an insectoid alien race known as the Collectors. Commander Shepard, an elite human soldier, must assemble and gain the loyalty of a diverse team to stop the Collectors in a suicide mission.

Unlike with the original Mass Effect, the composers aimed for a darker and more mature sound to match the mood of the game. To complement each character, the composers gave them their own theme song to convey their personalities and backgrounds.
