Level Up! concert pays Tribute to Game Music by Women and BIPOC Composers June 3rd in Los Angeles

Free yourself up for Saturday, June 3rd, and make your way to Los Angeles to witness Level Up! a one night concert that focuses in on the women and black, indigenous, and people of color who create the memorable soundtracks found in a huge variety of award winning games and game soundtracks.

The program for this event feels like quite an eclectic mix of music from different game genres that will be fascinating to hear live. Level Up! will take place at the Plaza del Sol Performance Hall in Northridge, California. Tickets and info can be found on the Upcoming Shows page on the Helix Collective website.

Level Up! features game music from the globally popular Assassin’s Creed and the Riot Games Cinematic 2023 to revolutionary indie games including Telling Lies and Dungeon Defenders. The music will be played live to select game highlights throughout the show.  Helix Collective and the Composers Diversity Collective present this concert featuring a roster of BIPOC and women composers, shining a light on some of the biggest talents in video game music today. 

Featuring video game music by Winifred Phillips (Assassin’s Creed Liberation), Nainita Desai (Telling Lies, Immortality), Edwin Wendler (Bladed Fury, Honor of Kings), Jessica Curry (Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture, Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs), Afshin Cohen (Dungeon Defenders), Chase Bethea (Stardander School for Witches), Sid De La Cruz (Unearthing Mars 2: The Ancient War), Min He (Zombie Rollerz), and George Shaw (Hop On - Lunar Revel 2023 Cinematic Riot Games). 

Attendees will travel through the musical worlds of games like Assassin’s Creed Liberation, set in 18th Century French Louisiana, Telling Lies with a 21st Century FBI agent piecing together a mystery and Ancient China in Bladed Fury. Helix will celebrate 2023 with Riot Games’ Hop On - Lunar Revel Cinematic, fight the undead in Zombie Rollerz, unravel the mysteries of the past in Unearthing Mars 2: The Ancient War, save the land of Etheria in Dungeon Defenders, survive the horrors of Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs, and learn how to wield magic in the Stardander School for Witches. The concert will be a sound exploration of the individual worlds of each game.

This event isn’t too far from my neck of the words, so maybe I’ll see you there!
