Yes. A soundtrack that really stuck with me is from Stranger Things. I like because it instantly sets a mood. It sounds simple, but it creates this strange mix of nostalgia and tension. The first time I heard it, I knew the show was doing something different. What also stays with me is how the music is often instead of loud all the time. That makes the scary moments hit harder. For me, the main theme is memorable because it stays in your head . I’ve even caught myself humming it while I’m doing random things at home. So yes, it’s definitely one of those pieces of music that becomes part of the show’s identity.
