As previously reported, Hasbro will be releasing the official Beast Wars soundtrack this year. This long-awaited score collection with music by Robert Buckley follows on from the previously-released Beast Machines soundtrack, which is streaming now.
A small but welcome update from Hasbro indicates that while the original targeted release date for the BW soundtrack (June 28) was missed, it’s now set to see release on Friday, August 23, 2024.
Even better, the Transformers Generation 1 cartoon soundtrack is now up and streaming as well! 42 remastered tracks, including “two previously unreleased cues” and a 40th anniversary remix of the classic theme, are up on the official channel for your listening pleasure.
This album, with crisp exclusive art from Matt Ferguson, is now also available on Amazon.com as an exclusive LP with poster.
