Stranger Things 3 features music by Emmy-winning and two-time Grammy-nominated composers Kyle Dixon and Michael Stein, digitally released via Lakeshore and Invada Records on June 28, 2019. Half of the Austin band S U R V I V E, Dixon and Stein have been on board with the series since the first season, creating strikingly dynamic music that has become a trademark of the show.  In Season 3 evil has not ended, it has evolved, and the duo has evolved with it as they continue to explore new sonic territory and instrumentation, such as the pop sensibilities and melancholic undertones of 50âs doo-wop, that go beyond the 80âs & 90âs R&B inflections of past seasons. They also return to familiar themes that are elevated by bold stylized reworkings that reflect the growth of the characters and intensity of the new storyline.
“With the Season 3 soundtrack, weâve made an album that doesnât feel like a âscoreâ necessarily, but one that feels more like a stand-alone record than a collection of brief cues. Weâve incorporated the main narrative elements of the series and stayed true to the original sound while at the same time expanding on our musical paletteâwe often pushed it to the limit. Weâve really made an effort to curate this album to showcase the moments we think are really special.”
