"The Ghost in the Shell game soundtrack, originally released in 1997, was a landmark collaboration between techno, anime, and gaming, taking the techno world by storm. With Takkyu Ishino overseeing sound direction and compilation, this masterpiece featured legends like Derrick May, Westbam, and Hardfloor, who helped shape techno history. Following the two-disc CD release, the much-anticipated vinyl edition is finally set for re-release! As 90s techno experiences a resurgence, this album, which has long been awaited from dance floor, will return as a picture 2LP. The double LP includes new tracks like Hardfloor's 'Spook & Spell (Fast Version),' which wasn't featured on the original 1997 vinyl, and Derrick May's newly remastered version of 'To Be or Not To Be (Off The Cuff 2024 Redefined Mix).' The picture disc features artwork of Motoko Kusanagi and Fuchikoma, further expanding the world of Ghost in the Shell through stunning visuals alongside the techno sound. The original 1997 art direction and Yamato-e illustrations were created by contemporary artist Takashi Murakami." - U/M/A/A * soundtrack from the 1997 Ghost In The Shell video game, featuring exclusive tracks by Derrick May, Hardfloor, Joey Beltram + more * picture disc double vinyl pressing (please note: actual pressing color and packaging may differ from mock-up photo) * first time on vinyl in 25+ years * remastered audio * limited edition * original release year: 1997 * music label: U/M/A/A 2025
