Far Cry 3 And The Stranger In A Strange Land I adore the music to PopCap’s Plants vs. Zombies. I bought the soundtrack from composer Laura Shigihara, and I still listen to it pretty regularly.
Video games have a language all their own. It’s a language that most people understand implicitly — concepts like extra lives, levelling up, experience points and boss battles have gone mainstream. That language has begun to seep into other media as well — movies like The Matrix, Source Code, and books like Scott Pilgrim vs. The World all use the language of games to tell stories in fresh, interesting ways.
Laura Shigihara, the woman that brought zombies to lawns everywhere lends her soft voice to the hard edges of Minecraft in her latest creation, “Cube Land”, an oddly emotional tune for such a procedural world.
It’s an indie game geeksplosion as the woman behind the Plants Vs. Zombies music teams up with the programmer for Xbox Live Arcade’s Spelunky to rap about their shared love of Magic: The Gathering.
Plants Vs Zombies songstress Laura Shigihara was so impressed by Jonathan Coulton’s ending theme “Want You Gone” that she recorded what might be the most adorable version of the song committed to YouTube video.
Laura Shigihara, the writer and performer of the adorable “Zombies on your Lawn” song sends us this live rendition of the tune, complete with undead noises courtesy of game designer George Fan.
