15 years ago, visionary developer Playdead burst onto the indie game scene with the puzzle-platformer LIMBO. Wordless and monochromatic, LIMBO was more than just a mood piece; its thick atmosphere and perilous puzzles told a story of resilience and tenacity, even in the face of insurmountable fear.

Much of that atmosphere came from LIMBO’s now-legendary soundtrack. Ambient, experimental, and daring, the music of LIMBO left an indelible print on the landscape of video game music, and its impact can still be felt across the horror genre today. Despite its influence, LIMBO’s soundtrack has never been produced on vinyl. iam8bit is humbled by the honor of bringing this iconic soundtrack to the splendor of wax. 

This is the LIMBO 10” Vinyl, a true celebration of the game’s 15-year anniversary and its impact. It’s the complete soundtrack from maestro Martin Stig Andersen, pressed on classic black vinyl to ensure the utmost sound quality imaginable. 

For the album art, we worked with the Playdead team themselves to put together something special. Like the game itself, the jacket is bold, striking, and rendered in shades of black-and-white. Even the iam8bit & Playdead logos have been omitted from its printing, a rare break in our standards made to celebrate this monolith of a game. LIMBO deserves nothing less.
