Lakeshore Records release the soundtrack to season two of the Netflix original series Master of None. The album features a selection of songs from the second season from artists including Sylvester, Soft Cell, Rainbow Team, The Walker Brothers, Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons, and two tracks from Mina, all compiled and selected by star & co-creator Aziz Ansari and co-creator Alan Yang with music supervisors Zach Cowie and Kerri Drootin...

The soundtrack to season 2 of Master of None pretty much covers all bases with tracks which embody the spirit of the '50s right through to more modern pop songs. More of a loving mixtape for fans of the show than it is a soundtrack in its own right, the music here will pretty much be universally embraced.

For me, it was interesting to hear the '80s Soft Cell track 'Say Hello, Wave Goodbye'. A song I've not heard in decades... and I can't believe how cheesy it is now. Was it that bad when I was a teenager? Or was it cool? I can't remember, but it's great to hear it again.

There's pretty much something here from everyone's childhood and even if you don't know some of the tracks, they'll soon grow on you.
