Joe Hisaishi: Princess Mononoke – Soundtrack Vinyl 2LP
The soundtrack to one of Studio Ghibli’s most beloved films on vinyl for the 1st time! Princess Mononoke was written and directed by Hayao Miyazaki and released in 1997, quickly becoming the highest-grossing film of the year in Japan and held the box office record for domestic films until Spirited Away was released a few years later. It’s no wonder why the film holds a special place in the hearts of so many anime lovers considering the gorgeous animation, fantastical storytelling and overall tone and mood (slightly-more-mature compared to earlier Ghibli films). The soundtrack was created by in-house composer Joe Hisaishi and performed by the Tokyo City Philharmonic Orchestra, and until now has never been released on vinyl. The audio has been newly remastered and the packaging is exquisite, with full color gatefold outer sleeve, obi strip, and printed insert with illustrations from the film and liner notes. The soundtrack’s accompanying image album and symphonic suite are also available on vinyl for the first time.
