The Ghost in the Shell franchise is a veritable multimedia phenomenon, spanning manga, anime, film, video games, and beyond. No matter the medium, the series’ cross-cultural cyberpunk aesthetic has more than stood the test of time. Ghost in the Shell has inspired legendary franchises such as The Matrix, Metal Gear Solid, and even James Cameron’s Avatar.
Ghost in the Shell’s influence has indeed spread far and wide, granting it legendary status deep within unexpected corners of enthusiasts and fans. This album is a shining example of that phenomenon. If you’re familiar with this release, you already know what we mean. If not, please allow the team at iam8bit to introduce you to: The Ghost in the Shell Megatech Body Picture Disc.
This six-track 12” picture disc features carefully curated cuts from the game’s soundtrack, collected on a gorgeously-illustrated two-sided disc that replicates the original release faithfully.
Originally composed for the Ghost in the Shell PlayStation game from 1997, this soundtrack features contributions from legendary figures who have defined the techno scene since the 90s such as Derrick May, Hardfloor, and more, compiled and sound directed expertly by Takkyu Ishino. Acclaimed illustrator Takashi Murakami provided the album’s eye-grabbing art direction.
We are proud to partner with our friends at U/M/A/A to help make this incredible record available once again. Take it from us: You need to have this record in your VGM collection.
This is an imported product not manufactured by iam8bit, and therefore is not eligible for returns. All sales are final.
This Picture Disc is inspired by the original promotional release, and features new artwork and a revised track listing.
While picture discs are a stunning collector’s item, due to the nature of their production, they often offer a noisier and lower-quality audio experience. If the highest possible sound quality is an important factor to your purchase, we recommend our Ghost in the Shell 2xLP.
