If you've played far enough into Red Dead Redemption 2It's hard to miss this moment. Protagonist Arthur Morgan is alone and tired, and he is returning to the future. He saddles up and tries to track down the only people he can call family, stuck down in the swamps of Louisiana Lemoyne.
It's a big moment made by the game's always staggering score: we hear a song in the background play as we are, a full vocal track when we heard more traditional orchestral work throughout the game. It's a powerful thing, made more powerful by the fact that it is not quite what we expect of this cowboy story. It's a deep gospel piece, marked by a strong percussion that rhymes the horse hooves in-game and a quiet guitar line that nods to the western game it finds itself in. Let's listen to it below:
As it turns out, the track "Unshaken" comes from other than D'angelo, and it's original for the game. Which is an important thing indeed: Rockstar is no stranger to licensed and original work, but this collaboration is one of the best I've seen and heard. We can see it in the credits here:
And while there's no point in this particular plot, I'll say that you hear this song twice in the game.
Fans of the series will remember that the original Red Dead Redemption played a similar trick in his runtime, the first of which left an indelible mark on gaming history: John Marston far from his home and his family, alone and unsure he'll be able to get back to life. Marston's first trip to Mexico, and we hear this song from Jose Gonzales
The time in this world just before the fact that we've heard it before, mostly based on the strength of the track itself. Which I guess is what happens when you get to write an original song for your game.
