Sean Booth of British electronic duo Autechre has claimed they were considered to score the GameCube classic Metroid Pr…
Both Booth and his musical partner Rob Brown appear in the credits of the 2002 game, sparking much speculation as to their involvement."I am violating an NDA technically by saying this, but basically we got asked to do the soundtrack by [Retro Studios]," said Booth.
"We met up with them in Austin. They were really keen and we were really keen, because it's fucking Metroid - the best game ever.
