If you’re new to vinyl records, welcome to the hobby! I hope you enjoyed having money before. Scroll to the bottom for a few basic things that may help you when buying records.


The Phantom of the Opera is perhaps one of the most iconic horror films in history. Directed by Rupert Julian in 1925, this silent movie starred Lon Chaney in the lead role of the deformed Phantom who haunts the Paris Opera House causing murder and mayhem in an attempt to make the woman he loves a star.


As legendary as its many adaptations on the silver screen and on stage is its history of fitting soundtracks. Throughout the decades that followed many composers and artists worldwide took up the task to write fresh new scores for this iconic picture. One Way Static Records proudly presents the latest installment in this tradition with a brand new modern re-score composed & performed by UK septet THE LAZE.


The Laze have developed quite a reputation across the UK for their spine-tingling live performances and expansive soundscapes. Influenced by a history of horror soundtracks, from Bernard Hermann & Angelo Badalamenti to Goblin & John Carpenter, The Laze implemented elements of Progressive Rock, Classical, Jazz, Heavy Metal & Electronica in their score. The original soundtrack will be the group’s fourth long-player. The band’s last release was 2010’s Spacetime Fabric Conditioner, a Sci-Fi concept album; which went on to be remixed by Steve Moore (Zombi), Forest Swords and Brontt Industries Kapital.


The band premiered their live soundtrack at Liverpool’s Picturehouse cinema, in the arts hub of FACT, on Halloween 2010. The sold-out, one-night-only performance led to further performances in UK cinemas, which concluded with a sold-out tour of selected Picturehouse Cinemas for Halloween 2011. Now they are bringing the Phantom into your home.


This new sonic adaptation comes on deluxe tip-on gatefold packed vinyl editions, compact disc & cassette. Featuring original black and silver artworks by LUKE INSECT (The Human League, A field In England, DeathWaltz Records,…)


- NOTES -


Okay, so I’m no “audiophile expert” or anything. I just grew up with vinyl in the 80s and I’ve been collecting & enjoying records for more than 20 years. Okilly Dokilly? Here goes ~


- Dust is normal, even on brand new records because it’s in the inner sleeves.


- A little warping is also perfectly normal. The important thing is that it doesn’t skip or distort when being played.


- Adding to that, also make sure the tone arm on your turntable is properly balanced & your cartridge is adjusted. A little tedious, but it’ll save your stylus and records from damage so you can enjoy them forever-ish. YouTube is your friend when it comes to most things vinyl! There are some great, informative channels out there so you’ll have no trouble finding a favorite. You can also find a wealth of knowledge on https://www.yoursoundmatters.com


- Before you go ham on crate digging, spend a few bucks & get yourself a nice carbon fiber brush, a Discwasher style record cleaning kit, a stylus cleaner, and some new inner sleeves. The brand Invest In Vinyl have some quality rice paper lined master sleeves that don’t break the bank. To see what this stuff is for (and some other expensive stuff if you’re made of money), check out this guide: https://www.yoursoundmatters.com/top-record-cleaning-tools-every-vinyl-enthusiast-should-own/


- Enjoy the music, have fun, and don’t let the snobs rattle your cage. You’ll find that some people in the community like to trash talk stereo components & other stuff….don’t let it get to ya. Get what you can afford that sounds good to you. ‘Cause what sounds good to me might not to you. It’s subjective.
