To coincide with the release of their new single Machine Gun [released March 8th], Dutch production outfit Noisia have developed a free online game which they see as a pioneering way to fight against the declining revenues in the music industry and which will launch at www.noisia.nl/game.
Having already been featured heavily in major computer games such as Gran Turismo, DJ Hero and WipeOut HD, the producers are aware that the use of a song in such high-profile games guarantees millions, maybe even billions, of plays worldwide. Figuring that the concept of music supporting computer games could be reversed, they teamed up with developers Flavour for an online game based entirely on Noisia's music.
The game is all about the music. Through each level you 'play' the songs and fire on the beat. The better your rhythm is, the higher you eventual score will be. The boss battles are based on remixes of the original. After more than a year of development Flavour is launching the first level on March 8th. This level is designed around the first single, Machine Gun.
