« There have been numerous attempts at film adaptations of the book, with abandoned projects involving music video director Chris Cunningham, Deadpool’s Tim Miller and Cube director Vincenzo Natali.

But after more than a decade of development hell, a 10-episode Apple TV Plus series is officially in the works. »

If you listened to the 1994 audiobook of #Neuromancer, the soundtrack might have made an impression with its "brooding and post-industrial electronic grind"

Today, for the first time, that soundtrack is available as a standalone album, re-worked from the original master tapes by Black Rain:

Just finished Neuromancer, my first time reading William Gibson. Difficult but worth it. Wow. Amazing and prophetic, so many things written in 1984 that have become relatable today. The world he creates is so massive and complex. Curious about the sequels, but I think I'll read something lighter in the interim.
