No Man's Sky | 65daysofstatic Studios Session | PS4

For their first video game soundtrack project, noisy instrumental band 65daysofstatic certainly picked a blinder. Exploring the uncharted universe of No Man’s Sky needed a suitably sci-fi audio accompaniment and 65daysofstatic rose to the challenge of creating a soundtrack that included procedural elements to match the many and varied choices the player would make in the game.

For the first time, Laced Records, 65daysofstatic and Hello Games are excited to unveil the first live video recording of three tracks from the No Man’s Sky soundtrack. The live video was recorded at 2fly Studios in the band’s native city, Sheffield in the UK, and includes live performances of Red Parallax, Monolith and Asimov.

This game made the comeback of the century and finally deserves a soundtrack this good

I skimmed through their music and I honestly choose to standby their performance of Asimov for No Man's Sky is the ultimate culmination of their talent. Nevermind it's a video game. It is so easy to get captivated by the emotions that are brought on by listening to it. The first time I played and the song began, I actually teared up. It's such a powerful song, even without any vocals. Going back and listening to this, outside of the game, it delivered just as powerfully as the first time.

I don't understand the dislikes here! I know the game has its issues, but come on: the soundtrack and sound design in No Man's Sky are perfect!
I love 65daysofstatic. I watched them live once and it was awesome :)!

[starboundband]

Possibly one of the best game soundtracks ever. Whatever you think of the game, the music fits the vibe of it unbelievably well, just perfect. Huge influence on me musically over the last year. Awesome to see a studio session, even if I don't really understand 3/4 of what they are doing :)

[AlphaMunky]

Oh no look at all the dislikes. No Mans Sky may not be the most impressive game, but people have to admit the game had one phenomenal soundtrack. Well done 65daysofstatic...
(Asimov has to be my favourite track 13:30)

I love how their music sounds so obscure. It's different.. sounds like nothing else. Very unique.

[tobiasbushnell]

Asimov is an absolutely stellar track from this amazing band!

[jasonthomas]

Despite what people may think of this game the sound design was beautiful. It was just the right amount of electronic and orchestral to give it that trippy sci-fi feel. well done

[JuanZiAmaya]

The sound design and the music were the highlight of the game definetly.

[KRTO]

YouTube algo apparently wants me to be reminded of my commitment to NMS circa 2016. Good game. Then and now. But, the music is what swept me away in those early days.

I truly felt alone in a vast mysterious universe.

[stevegamingfrchainefermee]

250 hours adventure until now and this music still gives me chills.

[WillemvanderPijl]

I had a meet and greet in the Netherlands with them once. We had an awesome conversation about the science behind the game and how that correlates with the music. The concert after was was amazing. Very different from what I ever experienced.

[PenguinDT]

One of my favourite game soundtracks of recent times; Such an amazing soundscape to loose yourself into. Heck, I haven't even played the game yet, but the soundtrack album practically lives in my CD changer.

[danielmaiermusic]

Such an appropriate sound for No Man's Sky.

[Nonekogon]

what in gods name are you doing to that guitar. keep doing it.

[marv]

Wow these guys have definitly understood percusion. Anyone who likes this should also listen to their other albums. Not quite the same but equally as awesome, if not better.

[Stormkloud]

I love the music in No Man's Sky, especially all of the opening music at the startup screen. I wish I could find hours worth of it to listen too.

[RoyGibson]

One of the best soundtracks for a game ever made. 65dos ♥️

[BHCKRZ]

16:40 jus blew me away what a sound these guys have created so gutted I never picked up NMS in the sale just then would have got it for the soundtrack alone after seeing this...

[Vena]

Una obra maestra!! Amo toda la banda sonora ♥
