Tom Salta, Composer

Aurelien Baguerre Audio Director, Ubisoft	Prince of Persia The Forgotten Sands
“An outstanding composer, Tom Salta is extremely passionate and truly committed to our project. The action and gameplay are remarkably enhanced by Tom’s beautiful orchestrations which unmistakably evoke Persian colors, providing a grandiose and emotional dimension to our game.”

Isabelle Ballet Music Supervisor, Ubisoft	Red Steel 2
“Tom Salta is an extremely versatile composer and delivers a unique and dynamic soundtrack for Red Steel 2. He has crafted various music styles including mixing blues guitars with traditional Asian instruments to produce an energetic, hybrid score that motivates and immerses players in the action. We can't wait to share this experience with everyone!”

Tom Clancy's: H.A.W.X.

"In Tom Clancy's HAWX we had to explore five emotional dimensions: the patriot, the life of a mercenary, betrayal, hopelessness and open war on US soil. Tom Salta managed not only to tie all these elements together in an astoundingly rich and memorable score but also find an acoustical identity for our game to stand up in the midst of the Clancy titles. Using orchestral arrangements, high-tech sounds and a mix of traditional instruments, he built an incredibly diverse soundtrack ranging from flavorful traditional themes to military tracks so intense that they take you off your chair to a standing salute."

Manu Bachet Audio Creative Manager, Ubisoft	Red Steel
"For RED STEEL, Tom Salta has found the perfect balance between Japanese traditional music, classic Hollywood score and various modern styles. He has composed the most exiting soundtrack I've ever worked on at Ubisoft."

Pseudo Interactive	Full Auto 2: Battlelines
"Tom Salta not only composed brand-new tracks, but also layered new music over the old, creating an orchestral-industrial fusion that now defines the sound of the franchise."

Ubisoft	Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter
"Tom Salta has created an explosive 5.1 score that mixes hi-tech elements, wild rhythms, and a live symphony orchestra. Not only was he able to find the perfect alchemy, but his music supports the action perfectly, and, most of all, it brings real emotion to the gameplay experience."

Coldfear

"For UBISOFT's survival horror game COLFEAR, we needed very specific music. It had to be both epic and disturbing at the same time. Tom understood our needs exactly and brilliantly combined electronic and industrial textures into an orchestral soundtrack. Under a very aggressive schedule, and lots of technical constraints, he was able to deliver great music that not only supported the action, but also improved the overall feeling of the game. Most of all, it was a real pleasure working with him."

Charles Deenen Sr. Audio Director, EA Canada	Need for Speed Underground 2
"Working with Tom Salta to compose music for Need forr Speed Underground 2 movies was a pleasure. We setup high demands for Tom, working under a short deadline. Even under these conditions Tom delivered great music which fit the action and mood perfectly."

Jason Altman Producer for "Sprung", Guilemont/Ubisoft	Sprung
"For Sprung, Tom Salta was a superior creative partner. Working with a new system under an aggressive unforgiving schedule, Tom delivered a fantastic soundtrack that captured the essence of every scene. He's a great guy to work with and I look forward to working with him again."

Peter Davenport Music Acquisitions Manager, Microsoft Corporation	RalliSport Challenge 2
"Atlas Plug (aka Tom Salta) has produced precisely the kind of hard-driving orchestral electronica-rock we were looking for when we envisioned the ideal RalliSport Challenge 2 soundtrack. His music aptly embodies the energy and ambiance of the game."
