Oh, you know, that Watch Dogs 2 game, it’s got some mighty fine tunes in it. It’s got a whole bunch of different music styles, but the radio pop on the Bay City Pop station sure gets ya movin’. When you’re runnin’ ’round San Francisco, hackin’ stuff and causin’ all sorts of ruckus, those catchy beats really make the game feel a whole lot more lively, I tell ya.
The main guy behind the soundtrack, Hudson Mohawke, he done a real good job mixin’ in electronic sounds with some hip-hop flair. Makes you feel like you’re in a futuristic world, like somethin’ out of those sci-fi movies, but with a beat you can groove to. It’s like a mix of the old and the new, ya know? Some of those tracks just get stuck in your head, like when you’re just walkin’ ‘round town doin’ side missions.
Now, if you listen close to that Bay City Pop station, you’ll hear a whole bunch of songs. It’s got tunes from all sorts of artists. One of the big ones they use is Oliver Heldens with his song “Good Life,” which got a nice vibe to it. They worked together to make a video that ties into the whole DedSec group, which is that hackin’ crew you join in the game. Feels like you’re part of somethin’ big when you’re rockin’ out to that music.
It’s real interestin’ how Ubisoft, the folks behind the game, teamed up with different producers and artists to make sure the music fit right into the story. Makes you feel like you’re not just playin’ a game, but you’re livin’ in that world, like the music is just as much a part of the story as the characters are. I’d say the soundtrack’s got a lot of energy, and if you’re someone who likes to just let the music take over while you’re playin’, you won’t be disappointed.
But it ain’t just the Bay City Pop station that gets ya goin’. There’s plenty of other radio stations in the game too, all with different vibes. Some are more mellow, while others, like the ones that play more intense beats, get your blood pumpin’ when you’re on a high-speed chase. It’s a real good mix, and no matter what kinda mood you’re in, you’ll find somethin’ that suits ya.
So, if you ain’t heard it yet, give it a listen next time you’re playin’. And hey, if you really like some of those songs, you can find ‘em on different music services, too. They got albums, singles, and even some live performances that’ll make you feel like you’re part of the game yourself. It’s like gettin’ the whole experience, even when you’re not behind the controller.
And if you’re ever in the mood to go back and relive some of those moments, just head on over to the game’s multiplayer menu, find your friends, and get ready to jump back into the action with all those tunes pumpin’ in the background. It’s a real treat for the ears and the soul, I tell ya.
