Eric Serra: Fifth Element (Colored Vinyl) Vinyl 2LP – Turntable Lab Exclusive Eric Serra

TTL exclusive colored vinyl pressing of The Fifth Element OST! To celebrate the 20th anniversary of Luc Besson’s cult sci-fi classic, we’ve teamed up with Light In The Attic and Mondo for an extra special “taxi cab” yellow and black striped colored vinyl pressing of the original soundtrack. This version is only available thru TTL / LITA and is pressed in a limited edition of 500, complete with remastered sound and gatefold sleeve featuring gorgeous original artwork by Shan Jiang. From Mondo – “Dystopian in concept, but optimistic in message, Luc Besson gracefully threads the needle of making an epic film that’s equal parts action adventure, bubble-gum camp, and passionate plea for love above all things. Composed by Eric Serra (LA FEMME NIKITA, GOLDENEYE, LEON: THE PROFESSIONAL), the music for the film goes above and beyond the duties of your average film score. Not only is the soundtrack responsible for carrying the wildly vast tonal spectrum – name another film that bounces sonically from comedic montage, to straight-faced Opera to action adventure in the span of 15 minutes – but he makes it feel, and sound effortless. It is a truly unique listening experience.” Recommended.
