Lakeshore Records announced the release
today of Among Us: Season 1– Original Series Soundtrack featuring music by Chrome Canyon (AKA Morgan Z). The score captures both the drama and whimsy of the series based on the globally popular multiplayer social deception game with a soaring orchestra of synths as well as exhilarating pop-inflected melodies. All ten episodes of the Paramount+ original animated series created by Executive Producer Owen Dennis are streaming now.
Notes Morgan: “It was so fun to reunite with Owen for this show. He’s obviously brilliant, and his imagination just fits perfectly with music I love to create. The show is a wild ride, and the music has to keep up, which for me as a composer was incredibly fun to do. I’m excited to see the music get out there – there’s some details that I think as a listener, you’ll really get a chance to hear when presented with the music on its own. I especially love that there’s a huge array of genres on the soundtrack, and excited that everyone will get to hear it all as a complete set.”
