If the original soundtracks ofĀ Wong Kar-Waiās movies have to be released on cassette format, which one should we choose?
It is indeed a bit difficult to chooseā¦
Analog Dept. is proud to release the Wong Kar-Wai movie soundtrack series in cassette tape format for the first time. Besides Chungking Express, Happy Together, Ashes of Time, In the Mood for Love, and also 2046, The Grandmaster⦠12 films directed or produced by Wong Kar-Wai, all from Jet Tone Production.
About Wong Kar-Wai:
Wong Kar-WaiĀ is a Hong Kong film director, screenwriter, and producer. His films are characterized by nonlinear narratives, atmospheric music, and vivid cinematography involving bold, saturated colors. A pivotal figure of Hong Kong cinema, Wong is considered a contemporary auteur and ranks third onĀ Sight & Soundās 2002 pollĀ of the greatest filmmakers of the previous 25 years. His films frequently appear on best-of lists domestically and internationally.
Exhausted by the time-consuming filming and post-production ofĀ Ashes of Time, Wong directedĀ Chungking Express (1994), a smaller film that he hoped would rekindle his love of cinema. The film, expressing a more lighthearted atmosphere, catapulted Wong to international prominence, and won Best Film andĀ Best Director at the 1995 Hong Kong Film Awards.
Wong followed up with the crime thrillerĀ Fallen AngelsĀ in 1995. Although it was initially tepidly received by critics, Fallen Angels has since come to be considered a cult classic of theĀ Golden Age of Hong Kong cinema, being especially representative of Wongās style. Wong would go on to consolidate his worldwide reputation with the 1997 dramaĀ Happy Together, for which he wonĀ Best Director at the Cannes Film Festival.
The 2000 dramaĀ In the Mood for Love, revered for its lush visuals and subtle storytelling, concretely established Wongās trademark filmmaking styles. Among his other work areĀ 2046Ā (2004) andĀ The GrandmasterĀ (2013), both of which received awards and nominations worldwide.

Let customers speak for us
from 45 reviewsI absolutely LOVE this soundtrack! I'd asked an AI for some chilled-out pieces or soundtracks based on my taste for Sigur Rós and Low Roar, and Volker Bertelmann's score for All Quiet on the Western Front was one of the suggestions. I fell in love with it the minute I heard that repeated, haunting melody. He keeps coming back to it, and the moments he chooses to bring it back are what make it so powerful. The rest of the music is brilliant too. The whole thing just works, and it was worth the trouble it took to track down a new copy and the money I paid for it.
My wife works from home in an open loft upstairs, so she hears everything I play. When I got home from work, this had been delivered, so I logged it, put it on, and turned it up to a serious level. When it was time to flip to side B, she yelled down, "What was that? It was amazing!" After it was over she came downstairs to look at the cover and ask more about it. We both agreed it was the best thing we'd heard in a long time.
If you like atmospheric, emotional music that stays with you, get this one. Five stars, easily.
After purchasing this and an acrylic platter; it really brings color to the room.
Perfect posters! Shipped very, very well. Will buy again! Thanks!
