?SSX has always been one of EA?s most music intensive, genre diverse and sonically adventurous titles,? says Steve Schnur, Worldwide Executive of Music & Music Marketing. ?The songs on this new soundtrack cover ground from indie rock, dub step, hip-hop, drum + bass and beyond. As fans of the ultimate snowboarding franchise have come to expect, our artists range from top cutting-edge stars to tomorrow?s hottest underground acts. Ultimately, it?s a soundtrack full of next-level music that is totally ripe for discovery.?
Gamers will have the ability to upload their own music to SSX to create custom playlists for menu and in-game music. SSX also features a dynamic music remix tool that will automatically remix licensed tracks and custom music based on the player?s actions and performance in-game.
