I loved Nitin’s work in Varekai, but the music to Heavenly Sword sounds absolutely amazing! Thanks for posting this; I didn’t even know he was involved in the project.

Been a fan of Nitin Sawhney since ‘Beyond Skin’ — an incredible album that will stand the test of time, because in many ways it’s about timelessness. And the music is up to par. Now I want to buy a PS3 just so I can play that game and hear the music!
