GTA San Andreas Soundtrack

San Andreas features 11 radio stations, each radio station sporting its own unique flavour and style. The radio stations are complimented by 20 different DJs appearing in the soundtrack. In comparison to Vice City, San Andreas features a remarkable three times as much music. In addition, there are three times as many radio commercials as there are in GTA Vice City. The radio stations are setup dynamically, putting an end to looping tracks. Players will also be able to hear accurate weather bulletins, seperate lead-ins and lead-outs depending on the DJ, but best of all, accurate news updates! So be sure to listen to the WCTR news after completing every 2 or 3 missions. Many controversial radio and TV personalities have also brought their talent to the table, such as Lazlow and Wil Wheaton.

In order to bring as much flavour as possible to the table, Rockstar Games have partnered up with Interscope Records, a subsidiary of Universal Music Group. This joint collaboration will also be yielding a San Andreas soundtrack, expected to hit shelves November 23rd. The double CD versionwill feature "a mix of select tracks from San Andreas' many in-game radio stations," if that doesn't suit your fancy, a massive boxset of 8 CDs will also be available.

"Fans of the blockbuster series can expect the soundtrack to cover the full spectrum of music genres and reflect the sound, vibe and feel of the FM radio dial from the early 1990's period," stated Terry Donovan, CEO of Rockstar Games. "The in-game radio stations featured in Grand Theft Auto have been one of the most celebrated and revolutionary aspects of the game since its inception. Through our partnership with Interscope Records, we are confident that the Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas soundtrack will continue to reach new standards of excellence and creativity, and will exceed anything that the video game industry or Hollywood have ever produced in terms of size, scope and depth." "We are happy to be working with Rockstar Games on the soundtrack to Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas," said Jimmy Iovine, Chairman of Interscope Geffen A&M Records. "I believe that the enormous effort both companies have made in putting the soundtrack together has resulted in something truly special that will be reflected in both the game and the soundtrack albums."- Take2 Interactive
