It’s been six months since the Battle of Starcourt, which brought terror and destruction to Hawkins. Struggling with the aftermath, our group of friends is separated for the first time – and navigating the complexities of high school hasn’t made things any easier. In this most vulnerable time, a new and horrifying supernatural threat surfaces, presenting a gruesome mystery that, if solved, might finally put an end to the horrors of the Upside Down.

Kyle Dixon & Michael Stein are the Emmy-winning and two-time Grammy-nominated duo and half of the celebrated Austin band S U R V I V E, have scored four seasons of the biggest pop culture phenomenon of recent years: the Netflix series Stranger Things. The duo’s dreamy, throwback score helped sell the nostalgic ode to when Carpenter and Spielberg were the tastemakers of the horror/fantasy genre. Series creators, The Duffer Brothers, fell in love with the band’s albums, which spin classic synths into a distinctly modern sound— and the resulting alchemy produced the most talked-about soundtrack of the year, which garnered a Primetime Emmy Award win for Outstanding Main Title Theme Music, two Grammy nominations for Best Score Soundtrack for Visual Media, an ASCAP Composers’ Choice Award nomination for TV Composer(s) of the Year, and a World Soundtrack Award nomination for TV Composer(s) of the Year. Dixon & Stein continue performing the music of Stranger Things live worldwide with prestigious shows in New York, the John F. Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., Prague Film Music Festival, the Royal Festival Hall in London, and Asia. During a recent immersive performance for TED at the National Academy of Sciences in Washington D.C., Dixon & Stein also recreated their score for VR experience Spheres live alongside director McNitt, continuously striving to challenge themselves and explore multiple facets of musical artistry.
