Impressed is proud to present the Official Soundtrack from the Motion Picture, Taika Waititi's 'Hunt for the Wilderpeople'. This is the first time the soundtrack has been pressed to vinyl, and lands in time for the film's 10th anniversary. The score was composed by Moniker, a New Zealand music project rooted in psychedelic pop and soundtrack composition, originating from Wellington. While there are multiple artists who go by the name Moniker worldwide, the New Zealand incarnation refers specifically to the trio of Luke Buda, Samuel Flynn Scott, and Conrad Wedde, who have composed scores for multiple films and television series - and this, for Taika Waititi's Hunt for the Wilderpeople, was their most notable. Their work blends lush, melodic psychedelia with cinematic sensibilities, reflecting both their indie pop roots and a refined knack for atmospheric storytelling through music, where their music helped shape the film's unique emotional balance between humor, tenderness, and adventure. The score mirrors the landscape of Aotearoa itself - vast, playful, occasionally melancholic, and full of unexpected beauty. Moniker's compositions often carry a distinctly New Zealand sensibility, blending gentle psychedelia, folk influences, and lush orchestration in a way that feels grounded yet transportive.
