About Grim Fandango 2xLP Vinyl Soundtrack:

Grim Fandango and Gone Home Vinyl Soundtracks Shipping Now, Unboxing Videos

Jazz isn’t dead. Well, actually, in this case, it is… but in the most thematically appropriate way for the 20th Anniversary edition of the Grim Fandango soundtrack. Composer Peter McConnell’s trumpet-y and rambunctious big band lounge act can finally be listened to the way it was always intended – on vintage black vinyl.  Real human orchestras were rarely used for videogame music back in the 90’s, but in this Remastered Director’s Cut, every note was re-recorded and performed by actual fleshy people. The results are foot-tapping and chill, turning your living room into a veritable smokey club (smoke not included).

About Gone Home Vinyl Soundtrack (5th Anniversary Edition):

Chris Remo’s score for Gone Home isn’t just ambiance; it’s a vibrant and flourishing character in itself. The album is a journey – one of loss, love and mystery – that unravels without words. There is an evocative intimacy to the music, expressed with subtlety and occasional swells of grandeur, while always remaining grounded in the humanity of it all. Over its 32 minute run, you’ll become so lost in its loveliness that when complete, it’ll seem like days have passed. This very special 5th Anniversary vinyl will remind you just why Gone Home is such a historic feat of storytelling in games.
