Laced Records (neutral as can be) continues its fantastic journey with fellow members of Gearbox Entertainment (chaotically good, naturally) to give the epiiiiiiiiiiic music of Tiny Tina's Wonderlands a wonderful wax treatment.
This double LP box set contains records "black as the starry night". Forged by Butt Stallion's finest sonic forging, 23 tracks have been sprinkled with aural pixie dust and carefully pressed onto thick vinyl. The deluxe double gatefold sleeve, covered in metallic pink foil, features artwork by Gearbox artists.
Gearbox's in-house composer, Joshua Carro, brought his experience as an experimental and globe-trotting creator to the chaotic realms of Wonderlands. The score briefly threatens the more traditional fantasy genre, drawing the listener in with big and bright celebratory themes, before twisting and turning, and taking listeners to unexpected places. Unusual and unsettling rhythms and textures are woven together to create a dense and sophisticated sound world, where one can hear strands of minimalism, folk, rock, generative music, IDM, drone, world, romanticism, aleatory music, modern music and "noise" music. Strange uses of percussion, piano, synths, strings and others intrude like sinister messengers, while Carro traces a new path for Borderlands universe soundtracks and fantasy video games.
LP FORMAT DETAILS: Pressed on double thick black vinyl. Deluxe double gatefold sleeve with metallic pink foil and Gearbox artwork.
