Spin some tunes with the X-Men ’97 Original Soundtrack on Vinyl

Mutant, in collaboration with Hollywood Records and Marvel Animation are proud to present the Newton Brothers‘ score to the hit animated series X-Men ’97 streaming on Disney+.

The highly anticipated series is as fun, thoughtful and emotionally charged as the original X-Men: The Animated Series, while being reimagined for a new generation of fans. But matching the energy, tone of the original was dependent on nailing the sound, and that clearly was top of mind for the series composers The Newton Brothers.

The Newton Brothers have produced an incredibly dynamic collection of music – from tackling the implications of serious political allegories, deep emotional truths, all while still embracing the fantastical surprises present in this universe (such as being sucked into a video game). X-Men ’97 proves you can balance creativity and honoring legacy in interesting and original ways.

The X-Men ‘97 Original Soundtrack is available for pre-order on Mutant’s webstore.
