Neil Davidge: Halo 4 OST (The End, 10/22/12)

Massive Attack producer and co-writer Neil Davidge has debuted a single from the upcoming Halo 4 soundtrack, which accompanies one of the season’s most anticipated video games. Judging by “Arrival,” the score is full of more string- and synth-swelling drama, but pounding toms and low-end rumbles add an urgency to the minor-key tension.

Look for the soundtrack 10/22 or pre-order it here in advance of the game’s release on 11/6. Hear more clips from the soundtrack here (scroll down) as well as cuts of remixes, including some from Gui Boratto, Apocalyptica, and Hundred Waters.
