M sends this along: (someone I know) was asked to participate in a music recording session for the ROTK video games (Playstation, X-box, etc.). They recorded various choral selections such as Gimli’s War Chant and Forging of the Ring…lots of wierd stuff, he said, including some Black Speech. Cool and creepy. He was told the recordings would be also used for the upcoming Middle-earth online game, which the organizers of this recording session said would host up to 100,000 people at a time. He said there were other musicians there, including fiddles, flutes, etc. doing what he called “hobbitty stuff.” Can’t wait.
