The D.I.C.E. Award for Outstanding Achievement in Original Music Composition is an award presented annually by the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences during the D.I.C.E. Awards. This award is "presented to the individual or team whose work represents the highest level of achievement in original musical composition for an interactive title. Both the quality of the score and the integration of the score into the title will be considered when determining the recipient of the award".[1] Creative/technical Academy members with expertise as an audio designer or musician are qualified to vote for this award.[2]

The award's most recent winner is Marvel's Spider-Man 2, developed by Insomniac Games and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment.

History

[edit]

The award was initially presented as the Outstanding Achievement in Sound and Music for "the integration and use of sound and/or original music in an interactive title".[3][4] The first winner was PaRappa the Rapper, which was developed by NanaOn-Sha and published by Sony Computer Entertainment.[5] Sound and Music would be separated into their own categories for Outstanding Achievement in Original Music Composition and Outstanding Achievement in Sound Design during the 3rd Annual Interactive Achievement Awards.[6] The award for the Outstanding Achievement in Soundtrack was introduced for the 7th Annual Interactive Achievement Awards.[7] This award recognized "the highest level achievement in soundtrack composition for an interactive title". Both the soundtrack's quality and the soundtrack's integration "into the interactive title will be considered in determining the recipient".[8] The Outstanding Achievement in Soundtrack award was not offered for the 15th Annual Interactive Achievement Awards, and had not been offered since.[9]
