Learn more are about the gentlemen behind the musical vision of Bioshock Infinite. Irrational Games featured employee interview with Jim Bonney has some hints on what we might expect in the upcoming title.
Jim Bonney: Basically, I steward Ken’s vision for music in BioShock Infinite into reality. Sometimes he knows exactly what he wants from the get-go; other times I’ll do the exploration to find the right music, or to push it further. I act as liaison to license tracks, I give creative direction/translation to composers and musicians, and sometimes I’ll write and record myself to get the results we want. I’ve also done some sound design, directed voiceover sessions for bit characters, and I help out with the technical side of the sound department – speccing out gear and recording studios, making sure our recording sessions run smoothly, and producing both of Irrational’s podcast series.
