Looking ahead, May-June 2022

[Soundtrack - Bubblegum Crisis]

MONO, My Story, Buraku Story, May 27

No doubt this documentary soundtrack is not going to depart greatly from MONO’s already cinematic sound.

Prince and the Revolution, Live, June 28

Is it awful for me to be more interested in the Revolution than Prince himself?

Steve Reich, Reich/Richter, June 10

Will we get a full effect of this score without the visual component that goes along with it?

John Adams, Collected Works, July 1

I already have Earbox. I shouldn’t need this boxed set, and yet …

Wilco, Yankee Hotel Foxtrot, Sept. 16

Who would have though an album rejected by one Warner label, then streamed on the Internet before being picked up by another Warner label, would necessitate a lavish boxed set 20 years later?

Vinyl

Soundtrack, Bubblegum Crisis, Vols. 1-8, June 29

Bubblegum Crisis was a pretty awesome cyberpunk series that set the bar for awesome anime theme songs, but the scores for these eight episodes were no slouch.
