65daysofstatic have made their new album No Man’s Sky: Music For An Infinite Universe available to stream in full ahead of its official release.
The album is out on August 5 and is the soundtrack to sci-fi video game No Man’s Sky, which was developed by UK-based indie studio Hello Games.
The band say: “Being involved with No Man’s Sky is as unlikely as it is exciting. Two years of our lives have disappeared into a black hole and we’ve been spat out into another dimension.
“The project has pushed us to explore new processes and techniques, to rethink our relationship with our own music and to essentially soundtrack every narrative thread of a ‘choose your own adventure’ novel that exists only in our minds.
“We’re really proud of the results, and can’t wait to release the album and play it live.”
The game is set for release in North America on August 9 and Europe the following day on PlayStation 4 and PC. It’s an ambitious sci-fi title which will feature a procedurally generated universe containing more than 18 quintillion planets to explore, each with their own geology, lifeforms and weather systems.
65daysofstatic will head out on tour in October.
