Two Soundtracks That Deserve a Spot in Your Collection—If You Can Handle Them

Some soundtracks are just nice to have. Then there are the ones that change the way you experience a film. The ones that don’t just sit in the background but dig into your head and refuse to leave. That’s what we’re talking about today.

We’ve got two exclusive soundtrack releases coming your way—limited pressings that you won’t find just anywhere. One is hauntingly beautiful, the other is pure creeping dread. Both are essential.

Danny Elfman’s Edward Scissorhands is the kind of score that catches you off guard, luring you in with delicate melodies before cutting straight through you with raw emotion. It’s a fairytale, sure, but the kind that leaves you with an ache in your chest.

Then there’s The Thing. The coldest film score ever recorded. Ennio Morricone’s slow, pulsing compositions don’t just accompany Carpenter’s horror masterpiece—they make you feel every ounce of isolation, paranoia, and doom.

Both of these releases are exclusive versions, and if you think they’ll sit around waiting for you, you don’t know how this works. Once they’re gone, they’re gone.

Edward Scissorhands OST (Midnight Sculptor, Limited Exclusive) ()

Danny Elfman doesn’t write soundtracks—he writes entire worlds. Edward Scissorhands is a perfect example. From the first few notes, you’re not just listening—you’re feeling everything Edward feels. The wonder. The loneliness. The crushing realization that no matter how much you try, you’ll never belong.

There’s a reason Elfman has said this is one of his favorite scores. Every note is dripping with emotion, laced with the same gothic, fairytale magic that makes the film unforgettable. It’s a score that stands on its own, just as powerful with or without the visuals.

For this exclusive edition, we didn’t settle for just any pressing. The Midnight Sculptor variant was designed to pull you into Edward’s world—deep teal with black marbling, like a frozen night sky, reflecting the beauty and sorrow of the film.

What makes this release essential?

  • Midnight Sculptor Variant – A deep teal and black marbled pressing, capturing the magic and melancholy of Edward’s world.
  • Audiophile Remastering – Every swelling orchestration, every delicate chime, every heartbreaking note—pressed to perfection by Waxwork Records.
  • Collector’s Packaging – Deluxe gatefold artwork, featuring stunning visuals and liner notes exploring the story behind Elfman’s masterpiece.

Did You Know?

Elfman originally wrote much of this score in isolation, drawing from his own feelings of being an outsider. Maybe that’s why it feels so personal.

If you don’t grab this one now, you’ll be the one standing outside, staring in.

The Thing OST – Assimilation Blaze (Exclusive)

Morricone doesn’t just write music. He builds tension. And in The Thing, he does it with minimalism so effective it could make your skin crawl.

This is a score that barely lets you breathe. A pulsing synth. A creeping bassline. A slow, inevitable descent into absolute paranoia. You don’t realize it’s taking hold of you until it’s too late.

At the time of release, critics trashed this score. They were wrong. The same soundtrack that was once nominated for a Razzie Award is now considered one of the most unsettling horror scores of all time. It doesn’t just set the mood—it is the mood.

For this exclusive pressing, we wanted something that looked as hot as the film is cold. The Assimilation Blaze variant is a hand-poured mix of red, orange, and yellow, inspired by the flamethrower-fueled paranoia of Outpost 31.

What makes this release essential?

  • Assimilation Blaze Variant – A firestorm of red, orange, and yellow, like the last thing you see before the infection spreads.
  • Meticulously Remastered – The tension, the unease, the creeping terror—pressed to sound exactly as Morricone intended.
  • Deluxe Packaging – Gatefold jacket with original artwork, plus liner notes detailing the strange, fascinating collaboration between Carpenter and Morricone.

Did You Know?

Carpenter barely gave Morricone any direction. He told him to compose freely, and when he heard what Morricone came up with, he chose the simplest, most unnerving pieces. He knew exactly how to weaponize silence.

This isn’t just a soundtrack. It’s a slow-burning descent into madness. And if you’re not fast, someone else is going to take it from you.
