{"product_id":"music_from_star_wars_andor","title":"Music From Star Wars: Andor","description":"\u003cp\u003eMusic from Star Wars: Andor is a physical vinyl compilation of Nicholas Britell's original score for the first season of the Disney+ political spy thriller series Andor, the prequel set five years before the events of Rogue One created by Tony Gilroy. The score itself was originally released digitally across three volumes in late 2022 — Volume 1 on October 21, Volume 2 on November 4, and Volume 3 on December 9 — each covering four episodes of the 12-episode season. The compilation was first pressed on a standard single LP exclusively at Target in July 2024, compiling 18 selected tracks from the three digital volumes, and was subsequently released as a limited picture disc edition on May 1, 2026 through Walt Disney Records and Universal Music, mastered by Patricia Sullivan and engineered by Tommy Vicari. The picture disc edition presents the same 18-track selection on a visually striking collectible format aimed at fans of the series and soundtrack collectors alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBritell — whose screen credits include Moonlight, If Beale Street Could Talk, Succession, and Winning Time — brought a notably unconventional approach to the Star Wars franchise with this score, deliberately eschewing John Williams' established themes in favor of a sound rooted in solemn orchestral writing and moody electronics that better suited the show's dark, grounded political espionage tone. The score is built around a central five-note Andor theme representing both the protagonist Cassian Andor and the nascent Rebellion, which recurs across the season in varied emotional registers — most fully realized in the nearly four-minute \"Past\/Present Suite.\" Among the compilation's most distinctive and widely praised tracks is \"Niamos! (Morlana Club Mix),\" a diegetic piece conceived as an in-universe piece of music — a dance track imagined as existing within the show's galaxy — alongside more stately orchestral cues like \"Luthen Rael,\" \"Mon Mothma,\" \"My Name Is Kino Loy,\" and the sweeping closing \"Rebellion Suite.\" The score \nreceived critical acclaim for its mature, atmospheric restraint, with reviewers praising Britell's willingness to subordinate spectacle to mood in service of the show's political storytelling.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Record Store","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl \/ Album - Picture Disc Vinyl","offer_id":53525027422522,"sku":"38058","price":63.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/2041\/0682\/files\/Screenshot_2026-05-27_at_2.25.48_PM.jpeg?v=1782979218","url":"https:\/\/recordstore.ca\/products\/music_from_star_wars_andor","provider":"Record Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
