‘The Force Awakens’ Vinyl Soundtrack Boasts Of Holograms

The world of Star Wars is a fascinating one, and you can be sure that this is one pretty tough cash cow to kill off – which is not a wonder at all that Disney has plans to roll out a new Star Wars movie every single year…forever. We could live with that. If you have some loose change to spare, then you might want to check out The Force Awakens soundtrack that arrives in the form of a two LP set.

Vinyls are starting to make a comeback, and what is interesting about this particular version is the fact that it boasts of 3D holograms that have been etched onto the surface of the records, bringing together the old and the new in a stunning fashion. Of course, one would first need to be deft enough to locate the proper viewing angle in order to see the spinning illustrations of a TIE Fighter and the Millennium Falcon, and Disney has a pro tip – shine your smartphone’s flashlight on the vinyl, and you can then view this animated artwork.

The idea of etched records is far from new, but this does not mean that it is any less cool, especially since holograms and Star Wars go down so well together.
