Composer Cris Velasco talks about returning to the franchise after co-composing the score for the first Darksiders game. He shares how the main theme organically developed through the selection of key lead instruments as well as with the lead vocalist from the band Niyaz, representing the protagonist, Fury. Velasco also also shares: how and why he chose the waltz to form the backbone for a key boss-fight cue, the delicate conversation he had hiring a vocalist to do heavy-breathing for the score without revealing its context, and, for another boss-fight, how, after missing his window to record with a choir, he was still able to instrumentally convey the religious aspects of the confrontation.
