[QUOTE="Admin, post: 58443, member: 1"] Award-winning video game music composer Mick Gordon has noted he will be donating his fee for his work on Atomic Heart to charity in support of Ukrainian civilians suffering amid the 2022 Russian invasion. The Australian-based musician has donated his fee to the Australian Red Cross' Ukraine Crisis Appeal, explaining the Red Cross has been "a vital resource for those affected by the conflict, providing aid, medical care, and psychosocial support." Gordon explains he was contacted by Atomic Heart developer Mundfish Studio in April 2020, just under two years before the February 2022 Russian invasion. Mundfish was founded in Moscow in 2017 but appears to have recently relocated its headquarters to Cyprus. Its [URL='https://mundfish.com/about-us/']official site[/URL] describes a distributed development team of 130 people across 10 countries, one of which is not named. "The game's unique aesthetic, combined with my musician's love for Soviet-era synthesisers, provided an exciting creative opportunity," writes Gordon. "I was thrilled to be involved and am grateful that the team saw fit to bring me onboard." "I'm eager to see and hear my musical contributions come to life in the final game when Atomic Heart releases later this month." Gordon also noted that working with Mundfish has been "an absolute delight." Gordon, the award-winning composer behind the likes of 2016’s Doom, Doom Eternal, and MachineGames’ Wolfenstein series, made [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/doom-eternal-composer-alleges-unpaid-wages-and-abuse-in-lengthy-soundtrack-controversy-response']headlines last year by refuting Bethesda executive producer Marty Stratton’s comments[/URL] about his work on Doom Eternal.
