The Israeli fusion rock band TATRAN took part in composing the soundtrack for the official video game of ‘Star Wars’, which won the award for the best video game soundtrack at the Grammy Awards ceremony that took place this week.
The game company directly approached the band and invited them to create original music for the game, which was released in 2023. The only directive from the head of the music department to the band was “be yourself”, and the pieces written by the band for the game became the most popular of them on the streaming platforms.
Tatran is a trio of Tammuz Dekal, Dan Mayo and Ofir Binaminov. The ensemble was founded in Tel Aviv in 2011 and began its journey with underground live performances by word of mouth. Within a few years, the ensemble won an impressive international success with hundreds of performances in Israel and around the world in front of a devout audience.
The band was founded in 2011 by Ofir Biniminov (bass guitar), Tamuz Dekal (electric guitar) and Dan Mayo (drums). Since then, the band has performed in dozens of clubs and full halls across the country, including the Indingev Festival, the Menasha Forest Festival, the Eilat Jazz Festival and more. The album received favorable reviews around the world and climbed to the top of the popularity rankings on various music websites around the world.
