Stranger Things premiered on Netflix in 2016, created by the Duffer Brothers, and became known for its 1980s setting and electronic score by Kyle Dixon and Michael Stein. The fifth season was announced as the final chapter for the Hawkins story, which increased attention on every trailer, theme variation and credits cue shared online. Clips of the end credits music circulate among fans as a standalone listen and as a reusable outro sound, valued for how quickly its synth sound identifies the series without any dialogue or footage.
