From first listen I can tell you that none of the artists have pulled their brass-knuckled punches on this release.

Digital Pre-order:

Music by Dreddd.

It’s only the second week of January 2019, but we’re already hitting you with (you guessed it) MOAR synthwave! Join the Dreddd patrol (that’s with three d’s) when his new synth-centric album drops next week! If you want to get a sample of what’s to come, there’s a handy single, “Club Killer” on preview now at Bandcamp. Stay tuned for more details in the next few days.

Vinyl New Release:

IT’S ALWAYS BLUE: SONGS FROM LEGION – [Order Here]
Music by Noah Hawley & Jeff Russo, Dan Stevens, Rachel Keller, Navid Negahban.

Some of the most memorable moments in the provocative second season of FX’s Legion are tied to its original soundtrack… Accompanying the visual design of Season 2 — which often leveraged a surreal and nightmarish aesthetic that seemed to escalate the unpredictable potential hinted at in the first — was a unique approach to its inclusion of cover songs – Leo Faierman, Screen Rant

The soundtrack includes a grim, highly evocative take on the 1985 Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers classic “Don’t Come Around Here No More,” which calls to mind Fragile-era Nine Inch Nails. You can listen to Hawley & Russo’s industrial spin on this classic rock staple – Austin Trunick, Under The Radar

Out today in stores and online is the highly-anticipated vinyl release of It’s Always Blue: Songs From Legion, the cover songs album from the FX Networks hit series! Previously, we anticipated the album arriving a week later, but sometimes, one of the David Haller universes swings your way.

The soundtrack teams up Series Showrunner Noah Hawley and Series Composer Jeff Russo who perform reimagined cover songs of classic hits such as “Behind Blue Eyes”, “Don’t Come Around Here No More”, and “Cornflake Girl” and more. Series stars Dan Stevens, Rachel Keller and Navid Negahban lend vocals to key songs in the album!

Each artist has contributed a top-notch song to the project. – Vehlinggo

 

For synthwave aficionados and newcomers to this music genre alike, a documentary like The Rise of The Synths, together with the debut album, The Rise of The Synths (The Official Companion Album) EP 1, should be a required primer.  Aaron Vehlinggo reviews all seven cuts of EP 1 (read it here), which features new and original tracks by the legendary Giorgio Moroder & Raney Shockne, Carpenter Brut, Dance With The Dead, OGRE, Lazerhawk, Mega Drive, and Voyag3r — out on May 1 exclusively on Bandcamp.  EP 2 will be released in June.

This album is released in support of and to raise awareness of the documentary, The Rise of The Synths, THE DEFINITIVE DOCUMENTARY about ’80s retro and electronic music, the synthwave scene, and ’80s nostalgia and audiovisual collective memories.  The film is currently in production.  This music release is not a part of their original successful Indiegogo campaign.  Stay tuned for updates on the release of EP 2!
