New & Imminent Soundtrack Releases

February 17, 2011 | By

Here’s the latest tally of new and upcoming soundtrack releases on planet Earth, including titles regular and limited, plus a few you totally missed out on because you blinked too slowly.

(Relax, I too missed Les Baxter’s Fall of the House of Usher, which Intrada released Feb. 7th. Two specific points related to an argument: it’s Baxter, it’s a classic Poe film, so why didn’t you press more for the other few hundred that wanted the blasted score? I wonder if I have to wait another 25 years to finally get a copy. Ha-rumpf.)

New to the list is nascent DVD label Twilight Time via Screen Archives Entertainment, who plan to release films on disc with film music goodies, such as isolated scores – a special feature pretty much restricted now to the odd indie title (such as Synapse Films’ recent DVD/Blu-ray combo of Vampire Circus [M]) or select Fox Blu-ray titles. More info on the series is available via the Film Score Monthly Message Board.
