Funcom announced the release of two dedicated soundtrack CDs for "Dreamfall: The Longest Journey". Having a constant focus on high production values and excellent in-game music, Funcom is once again going to great lengths to deliver original and unique sound cape in one of their games.

In order to pursue a distinct musical flavor outside Funcoms own composing talents, Funcom shared visions with Warner music in order to release a soundtrack EP fitted for a modern adventure game. Trying to bring forth an emotional impact, delivering more than the regular one dimensional adrenaline-factor so often found in games, Funcom found a perfect match in the Norwegian artist Magnet. Featured as the artist of the week on iTunes, and with songs in TV series like "The OC " and "Six feet under", the critically acclaimed Magnet delivers four tracks to "Dreamfall", and all of these are available on the EP.

As an artist focusing on reaching both the human mind and heart, it has been a special experience for me to work on "Dreamfall" said Even "Magnet" Johansen. "I have focused on delivering a unique sound cape which works in unison with the games theme, and I hope that all the gamers out there will appreciate the great effort to bring something brand new to the table".

In addition to an EP from Warner Music, which will be available in several territories as well as through the Funcom online store, Funcom is also releasing an original orchestral soundtrack. The two soundtrack CDs will be available through the Funcom online store closer to the Dreamfall launch in late April.
