Dying Light 2 Stay Human Documentary Dedicated to Making Music Released

Techland presents a unique short documentary that explains why the music in Dying Light 2 Stay Human is so special. Techland will also reveal the details of the soundtrack and the inspirations and ideas of composer Olivier Derivier (Streets of Rage 4, Vampyr, A Plague Tale: Innocence) while working with the musicians of the London Contemporary Orchestra.

The video shows the process of recording music at one of the most famous studios in the UK - Abbey Road (the Beatles, Pink Floyd and U2 previously worked there). You can also learn more about the composer's approach to video game work in general and how his vision and music were brought to life in Dying Light 2 Stay Human. Thanks to the collaboration of Olivier and the talented sound designers of Techland, players will be able to enjoy the development of music that will change depending on your actions.

The short documentary touches on many of the production issues of the soundtrack, including the unorthodox recording process associated with the global pandemic. Because of this, the authors had to record the parts of the orchestra musicians separately. See how the combined efforts of a team from around the world, including London, Paris and Los Angeles, resulted in the creation of an atmospheric and unusual soundtrack for Dying Light 2 Stay Human.
