Here's all the tracks used in Stranger Things season 4

Stranger Things season 4 volume 1 was released on Friday, May 27 — and fans may have noticed a slew of recognisable 80s bangers on its soundtrack.

As expected, this season has continued to show audiences some of the most famously known timeless 80s music, as well as revealing an occasional hidden gem from the era.

The soundtrack matches the emotionally-charged storyline which follows the cliffhanger from season 3; Hopper is imprisoned in the snowy wasteland of Kamchatka, Russia, and back in the US - the teens are faced with new horrors.

The friends are separated for the first time, and they're navigating the trials of high-school life. Supernatural threats continue to creep into their world, and these teens are left to battle them.

The release of the new season has even pushed Kate Bush's 'Running Up That Hill' to hit number one on iTunes — as this track featured in pivotal and toe-curling scenes throughout this Stranger Things season.

Previous seasons' soundtracks saw the likes of 'Africa' by Toto, 'Should I Stay or Should I Go' by The Clash, and 'Fields of Coral' by Vangelis.
