邁克爾·斯坦 Michael Stein

Grammy nominated Michael Stein, along with musical partner Kyle Dixon, half of the Austin band S U R V I V E, traveled back in musical time to soundtrack the biggest pop culture phenomenon of 2016: the Netflix series Stranger Things. The duo's dreamy, throwback score helped sell the nostalgic ode to when Carpenter and Spielberg were the taste-makers 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 that garnered two Grammy nominations for Best Score Soundtrack for Visual Media. Stein, a Texas native, was born in the early 1980's when the inspirations for Stranger Things were being made. Stein met Dixon as teenagers, and both eventually gravitated towards the analog, electronic tones of their childhoods. S U R V I V E has quickly exploded from being a hip Austin act to touring the US and Europe.
