Mondo Music Release of the Week: The Autopsy of Jane Doe
Mondo releases new vinyl special editions every single Wednesday. They are they ultimate edition of whatever they put out, featuring extensive liner notes, brand-new commissioned artwork, and always have a limited-edition size. The vinyl itself is usually colored or a photo disc, as well. Basically, it's like the Criterion Collection of movie and gaming soundtracks. This week sees the release of the soundtrack to the film The Autopsy of Jane Doe.
Hello all! This week we are super proud to bring you the score for THE AUTOPSY OF JANE DOE LP just in time for the holiday season!
We fell in love with this film (and score) when we saw it at Fantastic Fest in 2016 and we just knew we had to release the score to what is one of our favorite horror films of the last 10 years.
We asked Jay Shaw to design the packaging and after spending a month or so bouncing ideas off each other we came up with the most fitting (and grotesque) package that we could for the film. If you haven't seen the film, it's available on Blu-ray from our good friends at Shout Factory.
It's a genuinely chilling tale of a father and son mortuary team who get a body delivered that is unlike any they have ever examined – an unidentified female 'Jane Doe'. As they begin to perform the autopsy in the dead of night, they begin to uncover the story of the corpse and slow creeping dread turns to all out horror masterfully directed by André Øvredal this is essential viewing for any horror fan.
The score by Danny Bensi and Saunder Jurriaans is tense, brooding and a genuinely scary listen (not recommended for late nights if you want to sleep)! It's pitch perfect in creating mood and atmosphere one minute and letting loose into complete madness the next. The package was designed by Jay Shaw and we wanted to really give you a sense of the movie when you open it. The record is clear with blue and red veins swirling round Jane Doe's heart and is housed in a triple foldout gatefold that requires you to perform some surgery to get to the vinyl. The whole package is rounded out in a body bag! Strictly limited to 700 copies – one copy per person.
Like all Mondo releases, this will go up at Noon Central on the Mondo site today.
