Awesome Music / Split/Second (2010)

• Thanks to the game's Variable Mix, each piece of music has its own flavor that escalates to a climactic finish.
  • The Elite Race theme (which is ostensibly also the theme music of the actual Split/Second TV show as you hear bits of the main riff in other parts of the game) starts out with a subtle, bassy tone in the first lap before bringing out the main riff more on the second lap and finishing in an epic crescendo on the final lap with an intense guitar section added to the mix. It really accentuates the heart-racing intensity that the game is trying to convey. Sadly, this theme is not included in the PSP version (where the Elite Races simply use the same soundtrack as the rest of the game).
  • The music that plays during Elite Races, when it reaches its highest point. Especially if you are blazing ahead and leaving the so-called Elites eating your dust. It's even better when the main riff kicks in and you manage to fight your way from the back of the pack to 1st place.
  • The music that plays before and after the Elite Races - the former for sounding incredibly ominous, and the latter for sounding incredibly victorious and having a chorus back it. All this for a racing game, folks.
