Dexter (Music from the Showtime Original Series) [2LP, Blood With White Swirl Vinyl, Gatefold Jacket]

How did Dexter make a TV audience sympathize with a serial killer? No question, it took an ingenious premise, great writing, great directionand a stellar ensemble cast headed by lead actor Michael C. Hall. But long-time viewers of the show know there was another character that played a huge role in the series: the soundtrack. From Rolfe Kents unforgettable title theme to the well-chosen Latin-tinged tunes that fit the Miami setting to composer Daniel Lichts brilliant themes, the score of Dexter commented on the action even as it amplified its emotional power. Special mention must be made of the late Lichts work, which employed Latin and electronic elements to portray Dexters warm and cold sides; among the favorites here are Astors Birthday Party and the haunting Blood Theme that played over the credits in every episode. In 2007, the Milan label put out a CD and a truncated single-LP soundtrack album
containing music from the first season; now, for the first time, we at Real Gone Music are offering all of the music that appeared on the CD in an expanded double-LP edition, pressed on blood with white swirl vinyl and housed inside an appropriately gory gatefold. Dont miss Michael C. Halls spoken word pieces, eitherperversely pleasurable listening, limited to 1500 copies!
