The fountain is exciting though. the movie is kinda so-so, but that soundtrack is sublime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought I saw that this was also going to be a timed edition starting next Friday? I think there's a Con variant and a timed edition which will be online.

lethalenforcer Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 I know it only came out today, but Mondo pressing a soundtrack for Stranger Things feels inevitable. Loving this show. Blumplum and OrangeJoe 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said the last one I bought from them was Hail, Caesar! and before that it was BTTF. Most of the releases I want/have from them are older ones they did, I am really looking forward to the SDCC exclusives though since I really want the Castlevania and OTGW. I think that when it comes to any label there's always stuff they put out you have no interest in (for me usually it's because I haven't seen the movie).

The last ones i liked were BTTF & Black Swan, most of the recent ones just don't do it for me. I'm looking at labels like Waxwork & they are killing it at the moment. Hopefully they have good stuff in the pipeline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See, this to me indicates that it's more about personal taste than what Mondo has done differently, recently. Black Swan and BTTF are both examples of what Mondo has been transitioning to and doing for the better part of two years now. BTTF is a blockbuster/nostalgia property like Guardians, Jurassic Park, Home Alone, Aliens, etc and Black Swan is a mainstream film/composer with a cult following in line with their Shore, Wingo, and other Mansell releases. I'm not giving you a hard time, mind you, just intrigued. I bought every Mondo release up to the point where I realized I wasn't really listening to a lot of them anymore and just sort of collecting for its own sake. Now I still buy plenty from them, but I also leave a lot on the table. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I still buy plenty from them, but I also leave a lot on the table. I was the same way. It was easy to buy every release they put out, even if I didn't know much about it because they were only putting out (what seemed like) one record a month. Once it seemed like they were releasing one every week, that's when I kinda gave up on it. Wayyyy too much money. There's still quite a few I haven't grabbed yet though that I still really want like Black Swan, Army Of Darkness, Aliens, and Prometheus. Also had to miss out on the Batman: Animated Series box set, which still hurts me to think about today.

I worked on the marketing for Stranger Things and have been dying to get my hands on the score for months, so good! Speaking of Netflix, keep an eye out for The Get Down. That soundtrack is incredible! Hopefully that gets pressed at some point as well. Kjm23 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
