Happy New Year, everyone! We hope you had a joyous, relaxing holiday season.



In celebration of Paul Thomas Anderson's masterful forthcoming film PHANTOM THREAD, Mondo Music is kicking off 2018 with the premiere vinyl release of one of our favorite soundtracks and scores, MAGNOLIA, featuring songs by Aimee Mann and score by Jon Brion. We also have two distributed titles this week: Klaus Schulze's La Vie Electronique on On Way Static Records (which is actually on sale now), and Brass Hearse on Burning Witches Records.



As usual, new releases go on sale on Wednesdays at NOON (CT).

Magnolia - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack 3XLP. Songs by Aimee Mann. Score by Jon Brion. Artwork by João Ruas. Pressed on 180 Gram Sky Blue, Chance Of Rain, and Sunshine Gold colored vinyl. $45

Mondo is proud to present the premiere vinyl release of the soundtrack and score to Paul Thomas Anderson's MAGNOLIA as a three LP set.

MAGNOLIA is an epic of interconnected stories about love and loss, abuse and forgiveness, over the course of a seemingly normal day in Los Angeles, coming together in a stormy, emotional conclusion that is still as shocking and effective today as it was 18 years ago.

Following his breakout film BOOGIE NIGHTS, a film full of period accurate needle drops (and a fairly popular soundtrack album), Anderson took a much different approach with MAGNOLIA. He brought in musician Jon Brion - who would go on to compose PUNCH-DRUNK LOVE - to pen his first solo film score, and worked with singer/songwriter Aimee Mann to craft original songs based on the film's script, eventually incorporating some of her lyrics into the dialogue in the script.

The soundtrack helped amplify Aimee Mann's solo career; she self-released her essential album "Bachelor No. 2 or, the Last Remains of the Dodo" shortly after the release of this film, and was finally able to break away from major label ties. Similarly Jon Brion quickly became a film composition staple shortly after MAGNOLIA's release. After PUNCH-DRUNK, he composed the scores to ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND and I HEART HUCKABEES. Both Aimee and Jon's contributions elevate the already unique three hour ensemble drama to a dark, modern take on a classic film musical.

Available for the first time in a single release - and also for the first time on vinyl - the soundtrack and score to MAGNOLIA is spread across three LPs (Disc One: Songs by Aimee Mann, Discs Two and Three: Score by Jon Brion). Featuring stunning new artwork from João Ruas and pressed on 180 gram colored vinyl (also available on 180 gram black vinyl).
