Monday, 1 June 2009
Illusive are very excited to announce that local hip-hop juggernauts and serial video game junkies Bliss N Eso will have a track featured on the new installment of EA's seminal boxing series - Fight Night. The selected track, Field of Dreams, which also features Illusive's skyrocketing soulstress Paris Wells, will be the only Australian song to feature on the game's soundtrack. Fight Night Round 4 will be released worldwide on June 25th and will undoubtedly continue the much acclaimed franchise's stranglehold on the boxing game genre. Other acts to feature on the title include Snoop Dogg, Bloc Party and Mos Def.Field of Dreams, the fifth single off Bliss N Eso's ARIA Award winning Flying Colours LP, and was introduced to the public via their explosive performance at Melbourne's sold-out Sound Relief concert in front of 82,000 punters. On June 12th, Bliss N Eso will release the special edition version of their latest album (entitled Flying Colours Live) which includes bonus tracks and a full-length DVD of their infamous show at Sydney's Metro Theatre. Simultaneously, Bliss N Eso embark on their hugely anticipated, record breaking national solo tour. For the self-confessed gaming addicts, this unification of their two passions has been a career-long dream. According to MC Bliss, "we are absolutely stoked to have our music featured on a video game, let alone one from the Fight Night series. Games have always been a massive part of our lifestyle, so this a huge milestone for us.".
