Furnace MFG Completes Pressing of Quentin Tarantino's "Inglourious Basterds" Soundtrack on Vinyl Record Format

In anticipation of the national release of Quentin Tarantino's latest film, "Inglourious Basterds", Warner Bros. selected Furnace MFG to press, assemble and prepare the soundtrack to the film for retail distribution on vinyl record format.

Fairfax, VA (PRWEB) September 2, 2009 -- For his latest film, "Inglourious Basterds," Quentin Tarantino continues his tradition of hand-selecting each song personally. The film, which stars Brad Pitt, is about two plots to assassinate the Nazi leadership. Though the film takes place during World War II, Tarantino incorporates a wide variety of musical styles, including spaghetti western soundtrack excerpts, R&B, and the David Bowie song "Cat People (Putting Out Fire)".

Tarantino is known for creating a soundtrack both popular and obscure tracks that fits the mood of the film and sets the tone for what the viewer is about to experience. Individually, the tracks may seem in contradiction to what is being seen on the screen, but collectively, the music selected expresses Tarantino's vision for his creation.

With the film and its soundtrack's nationwide release last month, Warner Bros selected Furnace MFG to press and assemble the film's soundtrack LP on virgin vinyl for retail distribution. Furnace MFG was able to ship the final product to Warner Bros within three weeks of receiving test pressing approval, whereas typical turnaround times average 4-6 weeks.

"The soundtracks of 'Reservoir Dogs' and 'Pulp Fiction' are two of my favorite albums and I'm a huge fan of Tarantino's films as well." says Furnace MFG CEO, Eric Astor. "Being able to bring his soundtrack to vinyl was especially exciting for us, combining a great soundtrack with a great musical format."
