EA and Rhino Records have announced Throwback Trax, a new addition to the EA Sports licensed music lineup appearing in the companies games. Operating alongside EA' s own EA Trax, which is designed to showcase new artists in their games, Throwback Trax will utilize Rhino Record, the leading catalog music label, to include some of the best music from the ' 80s and early ' 90s.
EA Sports' Madden 2005 will be the first title to utilize Throwback Trax by featuring two songs from the label, and although no specific track listings have been announced just yet, notable artists on the Rhino label include House of Pain, Pantera, MC Lyte, Faith No More, The Jesus and Mary Chain, The Cure, and Violent Femmes.
" EA Sports Throwback Trax Powered by Rhino opens up the musical experience within the game and gives today' s players a chance to rediscover and experience these unforgettable tunes all over again," said Steve Schnur, worldwide executive of music at EA. " Rhino is a perfect partner because they have the richest, most diverse catalog of songs. If it is cool, it is part of their roster. And now, it is in our games."
Other titles currently planned to take advantage of Throwback Trax include NBA Live 2005, FIFA Soccer 2005, NASCAR 2005: Chase for the Cup, Rugby 2005, and NHL 2005. Credit: www.gamerfeed.com http://general.gamerfeed.com/gf/news/6848/
