I was kinda hoping it wouldn't be generic-y dubstep. Hope there's a variety of sounds in this. Really interesting idea.

Yeah same here. I really hope they do have a low graphics setting otherwise the game looks beautiful but you'll need a pretty powerful rig to play it.

Yeah I think there will be different genres playing. It's supposed to consistently change throughout the pacing of the game.
