Prometheus Original Motion Picture Soundtrack 2xLP. Composed by Marc Streitenfeld. Artwork by Kilian Eng. Featuring liner notes by Marc Streitenfeld. 45RPM. Pressed on 180 Gram. Mondo is pleased to present the premiere vinyl soundtrack release to Ridley Scott's 2012 film, Prometheus. Picking up the reigns of the franchise he created, Prometheus tells a genesis tale setting the stage for events to come in the Alien franchise. The film explores the origins of the Space Jockey and the Xenomorph, while simultaneously telling a fractured tale of the perils of meeting one's creator.Composed by Scott's long time collaborator Marc Streitenfeld, the music of Prometheus is as haunting as it is meditative and triumphant; a fresh approach to scoring a familiar universe. Keeping with the trend of bringing a new sound to each successive Alien film, this one sounds like it was written to be heard blasting from the speakers of an IMAX theater. Streitenfeld takes advantage of the locales, writing music for lush landscapes and barren caves,occasionally writing compositions backwards, reversing them in post to produce a sense of uneasiness inherent with exploring the unfamiliar. Prometheus is a unique listening experience that fits perfectly side-by-side with the other films in the saga.This limited edition 2XLP set is pressed on heavy weight vinyl, cut at 45RPM and features exclusive liner notes by composer Marc Streitenfeld.
