Alan Wake 2 Chapter Songs features seven songs from Finland

Alan Wake 2 Chapter Songs is a seven-song collaboration between Remedy Entertainment, Fried Music and musicians and composers from Remedy’s home country of Finland.

“All seven tracks in this collection have been created from the ground up by Finland’s leading music producer, Jukka Immonen, alongside Finland’s finest musicians and composers,” reads a press release.

“Every song and lyric is brand-new and specially crafted to fit within the world of Alan Wake 2 in collaboration with the game’s Creative Director, Sam Lake,” it continued. “From setting the mood to being filled with lore and mystery, the songs from this collection play a significant role in Alan Wake 2’s storytelling and plot.”

The first of the seven songs, “Follow You Into the Dark (featuring RAKEL)”, was written by Teemu Javanainen, Jussi Tiainen, Sindri Már Sigfússon and Sam Lake, and produced by Heviteemu and Sindri Már Sigfússon. It’s available now on services including Spotify and Apple Music.

“We are extremely excited to collaborate with Fried Music, and we are very proud of the fact that Finnish musicians are playing such an integral role in an internationally released game. It is a privilege to have such talented and amazing artists bring a taste of Finnish culture to the world.”
