Stranger Things soundtrack to be released

It has been the TV event of the year so far, and now the soundtrack for Stranger Things is due to get a full and impressive release.

While the show heavily relied on iconic music from the 80s to build its memorable soundtrack, it is the synth-led score from Kyle Dixon and Michael Stein of Austin band S U R V I V E that is getting released across two volumes later this month.

The first of the two sets is due to be released digitally on the 12th August, with a physical CD release arriving on the 16th September. While the second set will be unveiled a week later on the 19th August, and again receive a CD release on the 23rd September.
