I’m a huge fan of the Designers Republic, the studio responsible for Wipeout’s brilliant aesthetic. Being from Sheffield, they also worked closely with Warp Records on a bunch of beautiful album artwork for Aphex Twin, Autechre and others. The studio shut down in 2009 sadly, but the website popped back online a couple years ago. I hope they keep making stuff! It seems slim that there will be more Wipeout, however. Sony Liverpool dissolved awhile ago

Still have this on my bookshelf: https://www.amazon.com/Sampler-2-Contemporary-Music-Graphics...

It's got tons of TDR work in it, in addition to several other studios / designers. I could definitely see the TDR aesthetic resurfacing with all the 00s revival stuff going on right now.

I still listen to the soundtrack once in a while. The tracks were created by Tim Wright: http://coldstorage.org.uk/ https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Wright_(Welsh_musician)

Thanks for sharing the composer. I was coming here to compliment the music, too.
