David Bowie, Trevor Jones - Labyrinth (From The Original

The box features the Labyrinth 30th anniversary logo and shows the other figures available in the range.It’s been a little while since I reviewed Jareth the Goblin King from the Funko Pop range of Labyrinth figures but I’ve finally gotten around to sorting out pictures of the Labyrinth Ludo Pop Vinyl figure. Has anyone else noticed that when you enter the catalog number for Cream (2) - Goodbye RS 1 3013, Dead Can Dance - Into The Labyrinth shows in the list that appears. On the flip, things get much more dark with 'Minotaur Dub' which is a shadowy world of refracting drums and oodles of reverb and echo. The soundtrack for the cult 1986 Jim Henson movie, Labyrinth, is being reissued on 180g coloured vinyl.

The figure is a great representation of Ludo and is a great reminder how Funko’s real strength is when it comes to non-human characters. More Hamburger icon An icon used to represent a menu that can be toggled by interacting with this icon. Ludo is a very large character in the film, consequently his Funko Pop is an oversized one to get his scale right with the other Labyrinth Funko Pops – Sarah, Jareth and Hoggle.It may be just me, but they appear to have similar cover art and Dead Can Dance - Into The Labyrinth does have a catalog number with 3013. Don’t get me wrong, I’m constantly amazed by how Funko capture the likenesses of people with so little detail but non human characters are often more detailed and Funko really excel when it comes to detailing. David Bowie's music is typical for his mid 1980s style, though perhaps because I've heard these tracks so many times that I find them this catchy. The results included the widescreen balladry of ‘As The World Falls Down’, the haunting ‘Underground’ and the high-camp cult classic ‘Magic Dance’, which was performed in the film by Bowie, surrounded by some of Jim Henson’s finest puppet creations. I’d always wanted to be involved in the music-writing aspect of a movie that would appeal to children of all ages, as well as everyone else,” he said, adding that Jim Henson gave him “a completely free hand” with the music.

Bowie’s turn in the film came smack bang in the middle of a decade during which he made a concerted effort to reach a new, mainstream audience – and he duly accomplished that mission with his performance as Jareth The Goblin King. Often the oversized Pops seem to be done for the sake of it, whereas in this instance Ludo is perfect for the larger scale.

There is a predatory sense to the rhythm that never lets up as fizzing bass pries every deep into the dead of night. My association with the music and this soundtrack makes it a bit difficult to evaluate this album, given how strong my nostalgia is for this film. Nestled alongside Bowie’s original songs, the synth instrumentals created by South African composer Trevor Jones (who also composed the score for Jim Henson’s equally beloved movie The Dark Crystal, along with the 80s noir of Angel Heart) struck the perfect tone for the fantasy movie. The pair first met in Portland in 2019 and so it's good to finally have some sounds to get stuck into from their meeting of minds.
