Inon penned the original musical score for THE LORD OF THE RINGS: WAR IN THE NORTH (Warner Bros.) video game, conducting and recording with the London Philharmonia Orchestra and the Pinewood Singers Choir at the legendary Abbey Road Studios in London.

From ethereal and mystical to bombastic and lyrical, his original score for DRAGON AGE II befits the dramatic story and visuals and helps drive the heart-pounding action. Additionally, Inon and BioWare teamed up with the GRAMMY Awards’ Best New Artist nominee Florence + The Machine for an exclusive re-imagining of “I’m not calling you a liar” that you can only hear in-game in DRAGON AGE II. Produced by Inon and EA’s Steve Schnur, and mixed by Jack Joseph Puig – known for his work with U2, The Rolling Stones, No Doubt and Green Day, the song appears in-game as “I’m Not Calling You A Liar (Dragon Age II: Varric’s Theme)”.

The Elvish ballad “I Am The One,” written in collaboration with singer/songwriter Aubrey Ashburn, won Best Original Song at the 2009 Hollywood Music In Media Awards. DRAGON AGE: ORIGINS was also nominated for Best Original Score at the HMMAs, won Best Video Game Score at the Movie Music UK Awards and received nominations for Music of the Year, Best Original Vocal – Pop (“I Am The One” and “Leliana’s Song”) and Best Soundtrack Album at the 2010 Game Developers Conference. The soundtrack reached #1 on the Amazon UK Digital Soundtracks Chart.
