Konami Digital Entertainment Inc. (KONAMI) and Laced Records once again team up to bring long-time SILENT HILL series composer Akira Yamaoka’s reworked soundtrack for 2024’s SILENT HILL 2 to vinyl.
SILENT HILL 2 composer, Akira Yamaoka, says: “After nearly a quarter of a century, SILENT HILL 2 has been revived. I’ve poured a tremendous amount of thought and passion into this thing called SILENT HILL. Touching it again evoked a special emotion I had never felt before, as if I was touching the breath of God. Writing this music was a personal challenge, but I feel a deep sense of gratitude towards the people around the world who have loved this series for so long.”
Pre-orders are open for the Limited Edition 6LP box set, which features the complete 93-track soundtrack specially mastered for the vinyl format. The set boasts Laced-exclusive opaque brown + red A-side/B-side effect heavyweight LPs and a 32-page art booklet with exclusive liner notes written by Akira Yamaoka. Artwork is by Bloober Team.
Also available to pre-order is a double LP set featuring 27 tracks sequenced by the composer. Laced-exclusive milky clear heavyweight LPs come in printed inner sleeves, all housed in a widespined outer sleeve.
Akira Yamaoka completely reworked the soundtrack for Bloober Team’s critically lauded remake. Brand new and re-recorded cues for 2024’s SILENT HILL 2 perfectly capture the eerie atmosphere of the titular town, fusing elements of trip-hop and industrial rock with dark ambience and musique concrète. This new soundtrack will feel both familiar and fresh to ardent fans of the beloved survival horror series.
