Rockstar Games’ open world epic Grand Theft Auto V will feature the largest soundtrack in the series till date, with 240 songs across 15 radio stations.
Soundtrack supervisor Ivan Pavlovich spoke to Rolling Stone (which features audio samples for Vinewood Boulevard Radio, East LOS FM, West Coast Classics Radio and Rebel Radio) about the number, stating that, “It’s the largest soundtrack that we’ve done, and the largest score that we’ve done. For this game, which is set in our version of modern day Los Angeles, what was important for us was to capture that feeling of L.A. and California.
“We approached the radio stations as the musical soundscape [you experience] as you fly into L.A. One of the things we’ve never done in a GTA game before is a pop station; exploring that made so much sense in the context of L.A.”
Grand Theft Auto V releases on September 17th for Xbox 360 and PS3.
