Disasterpeace: Hyper Light Drifter (180g, Colored Vinyl) Vinyl 4LP Boxset

Disasterpeace’s original scoreto Hyper Light Drifter, now as a deluxe vinyl boxset!Once again Iam8bithave really outdone themselves,as Hyper Light Drifter isone of their most beautiful pressings to date. Thesoundtrack is spread across four 180 gram LP’s, each in a different translucent color (pink, blue, green, and fuchsia), and housed in a custom hardbox with tri-fold outer wrap that is easily opened/closed with hidden magnets in the flaps. Words don’t do justice as the package is truly a sight to behold, especially with the special outer foil layer that provides a unique metallic sheen. The music contained is just as epic,folliowingin the footsteps of previous cult classics by Disasterpeace (composer of Fez and It Follows) as another chill-inducing workthat blurs the edge of experimental ambient, drone, and glitch. Essential purchase for fans of the game!
