The Crimes of Grindelwald & the Wizarding World
I’ve seen Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald twice (so far), and have become entirely obsessed with everything about the movie—from the soundtrack to where it fits in the entire wizarding world.

Simply Soundtracks: Ori and the Blind Forest
I discovered Ori and the Blind Forest by listening to the soundtrack first, and it gained popularity because of how amazing both the soundtrack and the visual artwork. FULLY recommend it, if not for the soundtrack, just search for images of it. I promise you’ll be blown away.
