Mutant presents The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim Original Motion Picture Soundtrack on Vinyl and CD

Posted on by

Mutant, in partnership with WaterTower Music, presents the premiere physical release of Stephen Gallagher‘s original score to the animated epic The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim, in theaters December 13.

Stephen Gallagher steps into the sonic world that Howard Shore built with comfort and ease, forging a new trail and taking the music of The Lord of the Rings in inspired new directions. This massive and powerful score fits comfortably side by side with Peter Jackson’s original The Lord of the Rings Trilogy and The Hobbit Trilogy.

Now available for pre-order at Mutant’s webstore, madebymutant.com, this premiere physical release features liner notes by Producer/Writer Philippa Boyens, Director Kenji Kamiyama and Composer Stephen Gallagher, with 4x 140gm color vinyl housed in a M-Pack double gatefold style jacket or 2x CD housed in a 6-panel digipak with a 24-page booklet.

The Sandman: Season 1 Soundtrack is available now

The Sandman: Season 1 (Soundtrack From the Original Netflix Series)

WaterTower Music has announced the release of The Sandman: Season 1 (Soundtrack From the Original Netflix Series) which features music by composer David Buckley. This 27-track score is available now on all major digital platforms for digital purchase and streaming.

The Sandman’s range of genres gave Buckley the opportunity to embrace a large palette for the score including full orchestra, choir, early music instruments, such as viola da gamba and baroque flutes, and some esoteric sounds. He combined historic classical music and instruments with modern electronic textures to bridge time within the music. One of the most notable experimentations is that of Dream’s theme, using bells to portray his character’s ruling of the sleeping world, reminding the viewer of a midnight chime. The bells are sometimes warped or dissonant, mimicking the inconsistency and eclecticism of dreams. As an Endless, Dream’s theme is ubiquitous, being used throughout episodes regardless of his on-screen presence. 

The highly emotional score switches from dark to dainty themes episode to episode while still remaining cohesive and homogenous. Buckley created sounds unique to every moment of the series, making the music feel alive and distinctive.

The Sandman: Season 1 (Soundtrack From the Original Netflix Series) track list is as follows:

  1. The Kingdom Of Dreams
  2. Meet Ethel Cripps
  3. The Threshold Of Desire
  4. Jessamy’s Flight
  5. The Houses Of Secrets & Mysteries
  6. Dream’s Escape
  7. Johanna & Rachel
  8. The Oldest Game
  9. A Kind Word And A Friendly Face
  10. God Tells Me To Do It
  11. Every Hundred Years
  12. A True Annulet
  13. Dreams Shape The World
  14. The Throne Room Of The King of Dreams
  15. Jed Walker, Guardian Of Sleepers
  16. Sleep Well, John
  17. New Dreams To Spur The Minds Of Men
  18. Even A Nightmare Can Dream
  19. A Remedy For Poison
  20. The Truth Of Mankind
  21. Into The Vortex
  22. Return To The White Horse
  23. This Is Fiddler’s Green

The Suicide Squad - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack LP

The soundtrack will be available for pre-order at MondoShop.com today at 12PM CT.

The Suicide Squad (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), which Gunn calls his ‘curated mix tape’ matches the energy of a story about a collection of the most degenerate delinquents in the DC lineup, featuring everything from 50’s swing (Louis Prima’s ‘Just A Gigolo / I Ain’t Got Nobody (And Nobody Cares For Me) – Medley’) to 80’s punk rock (Jim Carroll Band’s ‘People Who Died’) to modern Samba Pop and Brazillian Hip-Hop (Ceú’s ‘Samba Na Sola’ and Drik Barbosa’s ‘Quem Tem Joga’ respectively), alongside classics by Kansas, Pixies and Johnny Cash, as well as a few alongside a handful of today’s rising stars like grandson and Jessie Reyez; in addition to their own songs, the latter two even perform the duet “Rain” which was written specifically for the film. Combined, you have the next best thing to a curated playlist from the master of mix-tapes.

Mondo Reveals the SHAZAM! Original Motion Picture Soundtrack 2XLP

Posted on by

As part of is Music Monday, Mondo, in partnership with WaterTower Music, presents the premiere vinyl pressing of Benjamin Wallfisch‘s triumphant score for the 2019 superhero comedy SHAZAM!

Ben Wallfisch is one of the most incredible composers working today. He is a master of genre, but also impossible to pin down. His work on Blade Runner 2049 is a masterclass in modern sci-fi. He redefined the sound of terror with his scores for IT Chapters 1 & 2 and last year’s Invisible Man. To round the trifecta, though, he also has a playful side, which is no more present than in his ode to Williams and Goldsmith in SHAZAM! Just like the film, it is an immediate burst of energy, excitement, and full of 80’s filmmaking sincerity.

Pressed on 2x 180 colored vinyl (Disc 1 Shazam Red with yellow splatter, Disc 2 Smokey 8-Ball) and featuring all-new original artwork by Cathy Kwan.

All new releases go on sale on Wednesdays at Noon Central.

Watertower Music Releases Lucifer’s Soundtrack and Stargirl’s Score

Posted on by

WaterTower Music has two new releases for two fan-favorite DC/Warner Bros. Television series: Lucifer: Seasons 1-5 (Original Television Soundtrack) and DC’s Stargirl: Season 1 (Original Television Score). The WaterTower Music releases are available at all platforms now, as well as the online store at DC FanDome: Hall of Heroes.

Lucifer: Seasons 1-5 (Original Television Soundtrack) features 13 songs from the first five seasons of the devilish drama, featuring performances by series stars Tom Ellis, Lauren German and Lesley Ann-Brandt, as well as guest star Lindsey Gort and performer Skye Townsend. Recently renewed for a sixth and final season, Lucifer’s fifthseason premieres Friday, August 21, on Netflix.

Lucifer composers Jeff Russo and Ben Decter relished the opportunity to tap the musical skills of the cast in performing a number of classic and contemporary standards: “Getting to record amazing songs with a fantastically talented cast is a rare experience. And creating this Lucifer soundtrack album was a treat. If only every cast were as fun! We feel lucky.”

Series star Tom Ellis, who plays the title character, was equally enthusiastic: “The music of Lucifer has been one of the main reasons I have loved playing this role. It rekindles my passion for singing, which ironically started in church when I was a child. Funny old world, isn’t it?”

DC’s Stargirl: Season 1 (Original Television Score) features 22 tracks from the debut season of the hit series. Recently wrapping its first season on both The CW and DC UNIVERSE, DC’s Stargirl was recently renewed for a second season exclusively on The CW. Based on the character created by Geoff Johns, DC’s Stargirl features an epic score by the award-winning film and television composer Pinar Toprak, who received her first Primetime Emmy® nomination this year for her work on HBO’s McMillions.
