[[File:LBRCP.jpg|thumb|139px|Lorne Balfe]]Lorne Balfe (born February 23, 1976) is a film score composer. Born in Inverness, Scotland, he works at the Remote Control Productions Studio. He is known for composing music for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Crysis 2 computer games, along with Hans Zimmer.
Balfe lists the trailer of [[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]] among some of his more recent works.

It is also possible that he is composing music for [[Assassin's Creed: Revelations]] game, along with [[Jesper Kyd]] who also notes his participation in the game music. There are many facts that heavily support this possibility, one of which is that in an interview Lorne Balfe himself mentioned that he's working on a new Assassin's Creed game [1]. The other fact worth noting is that in E3 Assassin's Creed Revelations gameplay demo, some of the music that can be heard during cutscenes significantly resembles his style as a composer - the music uses specific male choirs and brass synths common for his (and Hans Zimmer's) style, sharing striking similarity to their other recent work - Modern Warfare 2. What's even more significant, the music includes the usage of an unmistakable synth sound similar to flipping a coin, which after Modern Warfare 2 became composer's style trademark.
