Unoriginal Soundtracks #101: Dying Light

Every other Wednesday, I share a playlist of songs tangentially related to a single game or series. Songs about alien sex for Mass Effect, world leaders for Civilization, and so on. Make requests to @USPodcast on Twitter.

Dying Light -- the parkour vs zombies action game -- is the seed for this playlist of hip hop, soul, and rock.

Unoriginal Soundtracks #100: Life Is Strange episode one

Every other Wednesday, I share a playlist of songs tangentially related to a single game or series. Songs about alien sex for Mass Effect, world leaders for Civilization, and so on. Make requests to @USPodcast on Twitter.

Life is Strange mixes Telltale adventure games, Alan Wake weirdness, and down-to-earth Gone Home teenagers for 2015's most promising game so far. Episode one is just out, but you won't find any major spoilers in this mix of punk and hip hop in Unoriginal Soundtracks episode 100.
