Talk about a deal. The first ever downloadable soundtrack to hit the PSN is coming today. Otograph's incredible tunes for PixelJunk Monsters will be available for download ... for only $2.99! We're certainly going to spend some of our virtual PlayStation monies to support Q-Games and Otograph in this endeavor -- how about you?The PlayStation.blog features an interview with the quirky Japanese group behind the soundtrack. An excerpt: "The stages in Monsters are basically one screen so we attempted to use the music to expand the world beyond that for the player, and with just the music, our goal was to arouse the sensation in people to create puzzles."

any word on a format or if they will have any sort of DRM encryption on the tracks? I'll definitely get this if it just drops the mp3s into my music section and I can put them on my PSP, then to other devices as well.

I refuse to buy any music that is encoded with DRM, so I'd like to know too.

It is DRM-free. Enjoy!

So is this the 'special pixeljunk news' you posted about yesterday?

Probably.

That's awesome, i'm totally going to get that. Wonder how much of a price difference there'll be for the EU region? Also i'd be interested to see if these did come DRM free or not...

From the PixelJunk newsletter...
"Also, due to popular demand we are exploring a way to release the full soundtrack (Monsters original and Encore) to you as a separate package. We'll probably release them as non-DRM'd mp3 files so you won't have any problems playing them back in any of your personal mp3 players. However, this means they will be freely copy-able so please don't share them and persuade your friends to buy the soundtrack themselves if they want it."

Sorry.. I don't jam out to video game tunes and have the soundtrack muted during game play.

ah dude your missing the sweet noise and resulting pleasure that a laser tower makes when zapping flying nasties!

I dont have the sound effects muted.. the SOUNDTRACK is muted. I hear all the agonizing pain of the monsters as they get murdered by my devices.
