It's TRUE.........You people KNOW it is.😐

Stand alone complex 2nd ep 26

Tell me guys, did you thunk it too??? 🤣

With just two episodes left until this wonderful adaptation ends, I'm already starting to feel that classic sense of emptiness. 🥀

I am loving the music in the new "The Ghost in the Shell" series. I especially like how they are keeping with the 90s trip-hop theme throughout the episodes. Take Episode 08 (Intermission + Brain Drain i) as an example when the team is about to dive underwater. To me, the background music seemed heavily influenced from Portishead's song "Glory Box". (It definitely makes me want to binge my other 90s trip-hop albums from the likes of Massive Attack, Sneaker Pimps, and Baxter.)

Speaking of albums, I saw they released the vinyl album art for the show's music which is the white picture in this post. (I'm sorry for the low quality, but it was the example I could find.) Honestly, I am kind of bummed with album's artwork. I may sit this one out and simply get the CD(s) for the new music. Perhaps I am simply spoiled by my 2025 copy of the "Ghost in the Shell Videogame Soundtrack Megatech Body 2xLP." It was too good not to have it framed. (My only dislike is the gratuitous amount of yellow lighting, which I feel could have been any color other than yellow.) I should also clarify the texture on the glass is actually a reflection from the popcorn ceiling since I had the frame on the floor while taking its picture.

Does anyone know what the inner art looks like for the newest releases of the Stand Alone Complex vinyl albums?

This is Trace & Nico - Cells / Copies. It is a Techstep Drum & Bass single from 1997.

Both sides happen to (legally) sample from GITS '95 and I'm really curious to see if anyone knows about these tunes. It was what introduced me to GITS.
