Atomic Blonde (Soundtrack) vinyl

There's a fair chance you may already have been to see Atomic Blonde, an ultra-violent, Cold War-era thriller set in Berlin. If you have, you'll already be familiar with the stylish and moody soundtrack, which brings together original period material (David Bowie, Siouxsie & The Banshees, Nena, George Michael) with contemporary cuts (see Health's woozy cover of New Order classic "Blue Monday") and instrumental compositions by lauded soundtrack specialist Tyler Bates. The latter's contributions, mostly dark and industrial in tone and created using synthesizer and drum machines, stand out. The creepy "C*cks*cker", with its subtle nods towards Pink Floyd's "The Wall", and "Demonstration", a kind of amalgam of the Chemical Brothers and Nine Inch Nails, are particularly noteworthy.
