With the composer contributing ten original tracks for the game, it's unsurprising that it would receive its own album release: Need for Speed ProStreet Original Music. The 11th instalment in Electronic Arts' racing series, Need for Speed: ProStreet features an original score from the established electronica musician Junkie XL (Tom Holkenborg). Otherwise, if you like the sounds of some of the bands represented on here, then go ahead and take a look at their respective singles or albums noted in the iTunes page.

The album is certainly respectable - at least in the sense that it doesn't just stick to one specific genre of music - so either way it's still a worthy download from iTunes. I think most of you who have already played the game will agree that the tracks all come together to create a unique experience, and I feel that this isn't represented here to its fullest, with the absence of the 15 or so other tracks. My main criticisms are of the lack of memorable tracks on the album and also that some of the game's other licensed tracks aren't featured (e.g.
CSS, Chromeo, Datarock in FIFA 09) it's apparent that they must have that generic, popular gaming sound. With the majority of these artists having music featured in other games (e.g. It has a catchy beat and melody, but features some rather explicit lyrics, and doesn't especially have much to do with Pacman, but it's a nice addition nonetheless. "More" is actually dedicated to (and inspired by) Pacman, and was pushed out as a single release in conjunction with Need for Speed: ProStreet. It's Junkie XL's "More" which I should really point out though, especially with the musician composing the original score for the game. Datarock's "I Used to Dance With My Daddy" and Chromeo's electrofunk "Fancy Footwork," are both pretty catchy too, especially with the lyrics. CSS take a completely different approach with their track "Odio Odio Odio Sorry C," which takes upon a brash obtrusive sound with the female vocalist literally shouting the words out. "Neon Knights," from MSTRKRFT (one of my favourite electro house groups) is one of the more striking examples, with its pulsating beats and throbbing melody. What makes it really stand out is the fantastic riff which comes in around 0:17 and the spoken word vocals which overlie this.Īlongside the indie rock and post-punk bands, electronica bands also get a decent representation towards the end of the album. Perhaps this reduces its originality here though.

The track has become so successful commercially that it has appeared in multiple TV series', adverts, and games such as Project Gotham Racing 4. "Wolf Like Me," however, is the best of these. Two tracks which really stick out in this set of similar musical styles though are "Draw Japan" by The Horrors and TV on the Radio's "Wolf Like Me." Though "Draw Japan" isn't particularly fun to listen to, it has a unique sound, mostly created by the contrast of the vocals against the track's synth backdrop. The Yeah Yeah Yeahs get it all underway with their rather laidback punk track "Kiss Kiss." Unkle then follow with the similarly easy-going, but surreal "Restless," which also features in the racing rally game Colin McRae: Dirt 2. The first part of the album is taken up mostly by indie rock/post-punk bands. On the album are the likes of Unkle and CSS, and Junkie XL who also composed the original score for the game, which can be heard on the Need for Speed ProStreet Original Music album. Fortunately for us, the Need for Speed ProStreet Official Soundtrack features most of these, in a 19 track journey released online.
