Atomic Blonde (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) Eco Vinyl Variant 2xLP Record

Description: New Still Sealed: Atomic Blonde (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) Eco Vinyl Variant 2xLP RecordRecord Label: Mondo MOND-114A cool film needs a cool soundtrack, right? And none come cooler than ATOMIC BLONDE. A double LP filled to the brim with needle drops of some of the ’80s best known cuts, as well as some under the radar gems, and a smattering of brand new tracks recorded especially for the movie. David Bowie, George Michael, The Clash, Nena, Siouxsie and the Banshees, and A Flock Of Seagulls of course need no introduction, and they all contribute absolutely killer songs here. Rubbing shoulders with these A-listers are lesser known acts such as Re-Flex, whose track ‘The Politics of Dancing’ was a minor hit in the UK and is a pure ’80s synth-pop banger from start to finish. After The Fire went from playing uninspired prog rock to recording the should-have-been classic ‘Der Kommissar,’ full of funky guitar licks and a chorus so hook-laden it should be illegal. ‘Voices Carry’ by American new wave band ’Til Tuesday features Aimee Mann on vocals and is an all-timer everyone needs on vinyl. The record is rounded out by a series of covers of classic ‘80s tracks. Industrial noise pop band HEALTH offering a fresh take on New Order’s ’Blue Monday’ which turns the cold original into a sublime slice of melodic mayhem that breaks down into into electro shoegaze before going full dance floor to finish. LEX recording artists Kaleida supply a moody ethereal version of Nena’s ‘99 Luftballons’. And finally composer Tyler Bates teams up with Marilyn Manson for a cover of Ministry’s ‘Stigmata,’ which sounds like Manson going back to his Spooky Kids roots, and is urgent as all hell. Four sides of killer music wrapped in a beautiful package for one of the best action films this year. It’s a no brainer, really. Buy this, or be prepared to meet Charlize in stairwell and explain why you aren’t adding it to you collection…… Tracklisting:Cat People (Putting Out Fire) – David BowieMajor Tom (Völlig Losgelöst) – Peter SchillingBlue Monday – HEALTHC*cks*cker – Tyler Bates99 Luftballons – NenaFather Figure – George MichaelDer Kommissar – After the FireCities in Dust – Siouxsie and the BansheesThe Politics of Dancing – Re-FlexStigmata – Marilyn Manson & Tyler BatesDemonstration – Tyler BatesI Ran (So Far Away) – A Flock of Seagulls99 Luftballons – KaleidaVoices Carry – ‘Til TuesdayLondon Calling – The ClashFinding the UHF Device – Tyler Bates Finally, we had some questions about our Eco Vinyl over the last few weeks. In an effort to do our bit for our carbon footprint, we are making some changes for 2022 (but you may start to see these trickle out in late 2021). First, our retail variants will begin being pressed on "Eco Vinyl". This is a method where the plant uses leftover pellets from other jobs and mixes them all together. It creates completely unique colors and means every single record will be individual. More excitingly for us, it helps us reduce waste and our carbon footprint at the same time. We’ll also switching to 140 Gram vinyl wherever possible. There are several reasons for this, but the main ones are that it uses less plastic (obviously), but also that the majority of the presses used to this day are still optimized for 140 Gram. The industry pivoted toward 180 Gram for collectability, when vinyl was struggling, and it stuck. But, after chatting with our production partners, we believe that good mastering is the basis for a solid record ... and not the weight of the vinyl it is pressed on. (Some us long-term collectors still have 100 Gram vinyl from the 80's that sounds great!) EVERY item I offer for purchase is in stock and ready to ship.
