Mutant, in association with Sony Masterworks, are proud to present the premiere physical release of Laura Karpman’s Academy Award® Nominated score for the motion picture AMERICAN FICTION
A tremendous piece of film music, harkening back to a seemingly lost, jazzier era of scoring - Laura Karpman finds beauty in sadness, and poetry in the absurd, as she sonically navigates the world of author Thelonius ‘Monk’ Ellison. Cord Jefferson's debut feature tells the story of Monk's head-on collision with the expectations of him as a black writer, as his satirical and cynical invention of a nom de plume accidentally brings momentum to his career, all in the shadow of tremendous grief within his family. The subject matter requires an incredible balance of tone, which Karpman executes masterfully. Available for the first time on any physical format, pressed on 140gm vinyl, with liner notes by composer Laura Karpman, and artwork by award winning illustrator Akiko Stehrenberger.

Shipping, Returns & Cancellations
Shipping, Returns & Cancellations
SHIPPING:
We ship Monday through Friday. Orders typically ship within 24-72 hours. Tracking is sent to the email you provide at check out and may take a few days to become active.
Any items ordered with Pre-Orders will be held until they can all ship together. If you need in stock items faster please order them seperately.
RETURNS:
Returns are only accepted on damaged or defective items. Return requests must be made within 7 days of delivery. Please save the original packaging.
If you own a Crosley, Victrola or any other lower end turntable that has no ability to adjust the weight of the tone arm and are experiencing skipping on a new record please try the "Penny Trick". Simply place a penny on the top of the cartidge and it should provide enough weight to resolve your issues. While a great entry to the world of vinyl we do recommend upgrading to a turntable with a tone arm that can be adjusted as this issue will randomly occur. We do not take returns in these cases.
Resellers: If you are buying from us for resale we honestly don't mind. However, please don't panic if something you bought suddenly isn't flipable for more money and then try to return stuff to us because you feel like you made a bad investment choice. Despite our outsized reputation we're a small shop, not amazon. Absorbing these costs adds up on places like ours. Plus a little patience always tends to pay off.
CANCELLATIONS:
Due to an increasing number of payment processors no longer returning transaction fees to sellers on cancelled orders and rising labor costs any orders or pre-orders that need to be cancelled before shipment will be assessed a 5% cancellation/restocking fee on the order total including shipping and any other taxes or fees associated with the order.
Thank you for your understanding.
