The Last of Us Remixed Announced
Composer Taylor Ambrosio Wood brings The Last of Us soundtrack to life with this latest album from Materia Collective. Eleven tracks from the OST are featured on the album, telling “the game's story through all the key musical moments which fans will immediately recognize”. Taylor is joined by several other musicians including The Videri String Quartet, Allegra Ambrosio, Michael Hoffmann and more.

From the album’s press release:
"The Last of Us is the most emotionally effective game soundtrack of the last decade, and arguably one of the greatest videogame soundtracks of all time," notes Taylor Ambrosio Wood. "We are extraordinarily passionate about Santaolalla's work, and as fans of his ourselves, we were personally invested in creating a beautiful and respectful tribute to this amazing soundtrack. This album aims to enter the world of The Last of Us from an adjacent perspective, while still maintaining the emotional core of what made the original soundtrack so monumental."
Judging from what I’ve heard, this is going to be an emotionally charged tribute album with top-tier performances. The hype for The Last of Us Part II is steadily building, and this album will help to tide over fans until the sequel arrives next February.
