Hi everyone. We're excited to present two out-of-this-world releases for this Wednesday, Earth Day – an under-heard gem from last year, Jeff Russo's terrific score for last year's LUCY IN THE SKY pressed on Star Field vinyl. and a re-press of Justin Hurwitz's Golden Globe-winning score for Damien Chazelle's 2018 Neil Armstrong biopic, FIRST MAN.

Rounding out the Earth Day offerings, we've also got an enamel pin for the Marvel universe's most famous swamp-infused scientist – MAN-THING. The talented artist Dan Hipp has depicted the kinder side of this empathic humanoid, crawling out of the Florida everglades with a lovely bouquet.

As always, all new releases and restocks go on sale on Wednesdays at Noon CT.



In keeping with our yearly tradition, Mondo will donate a portion of Earth Day proceeds to the Austin Parks Foundation. We all miss our beautiful outdoor spaces while we stay safely at home, and hope to contribute to their maintenance in this time of need so we can someday graze the wildflowers with Man-Thing again.

Oh, and in case you missed it – Mondo Music and Playtone have been hard at work to produce the premiere vinyl edition of the soundtrack to THAT THING YOU DO! for several months. We still aren't ready to share the finished product, but in partnership with the cast and crew and their epic reunion, we're donating one of the album test pressings to be auctioned off for the MusiCares Foundation charity. More details here.

NEW RELEASES

LUCY IN THE SKY - ORIGINAL MOTION PICTURE SOUNDTRACK 2XLP. Music by Jeff Russo. Artwork by Jasmin Darnell. Pressed on 2x 180 Gram Star Field Vinyl (limited to 300 copies worldwide). Also available on 2x 180 Gram Black vinyl. $35.

Mondo Music, in partnership with Lakeshore Music, is proud to present the premiere vinyl pressing of Jeff Russo's score to the 2019 film by Noah Hawley, LUCY IN THE SKY. The film is a sad but beautiful fable about failure, double standards, and achievement, but the score is never bleak because the film itself is always hopeful and curious. Anchored by swelling synths and echoing choruses, the score is tranquil and sublime. An underrated and under-heard collection of film music we are super proud to share.

Featuring a brand new, beautiful illustration by Jasmin Darnell, it's pressed on 2x 180-gram Star Field vinyl – an all-new process that allows you to press glitter vinyl without any risk of damage to your needle – and strictly limited to 300 copies worldwide. (Also available on 2x 180-gram Black vinyl.)
