Composer Jason Graves on creating Tomb Raider's music
As much as I enjoy collecting various limited editions of movies and games for the behind-the-scenes featurettes, I hardly ever get around to viewing them.

The earthy and percussion-heavy tones help compliment the jungle environment and set this reboot apart from its raiding brethren, or sistren, as the case may be. I've never really been too interested in raiding tombs, but this one might be worth getting shipwrecked for. Did you know?
