New Waxwork Records Release: Celebrating Two Years of Horror Soundtracks on Vinyl

As we mark the two-year anniversary of Waxwork Records, it's a perfect opportunity to catch up with their founder and CEO, Kevin Bergeron, who took time out of his busy schedule for a Q&A with us. Since its inception in July 2013, Waxwork Records has released an impressive 11 soundtracks, including Re-Animator, Day of the Dead, Rosemary's Baby, Creepshow, Chopping Mall, Friday the 13th, Trick 'r Treat, Phase IV, Starry Eyes, Friday the 13th Part 2, and Nightbreed.

What sets Waxwork Records apart from other soundtrack releases is their meticulous attention to detail. They spend an extraordinary amount of time on sound quality and mastering, as well as the artwork and packaging, making each release a must-have for genre fans, vinyl collectors, and music enthusiasts alike. This commitment to excellence has earned them a reputation as one of the top production companies in the industry.

In recent years, the resurgence of vinyl has led to an influx of production companies specializing in horror soundtracks solely on vinyl. Waxwork Records is among the pioneers of this movement, joined by other notable labels such as Mondo/Death Waltz Records and One Way Static Records. These companies understand that a soundtrack is more than just background noise; it's an essential component of the film experience.

Horror movie fans know that a score can elevate a film from good to great, making it an unforgettable experience. Think about watching Psycho without Bernard Herrmann's iconic string score or Halloween without John Carpenter's haunting theme. More recently, films like It Follows wouldn't be the same without Disasterpeace's electronic soundscape.

As Waxwork Records celebrates two years of bringing horror soundtracks to life on vinyl, fans can expect even more exciting releases in the future. With their dedication to quality and passion for genre music, it's clear that Waxwork Records will continue to be a driving force behind the resurgence of horror soundtracks on vinyl.
