Season 6 Episode 16 - Bleep Boop – Video Game Music is SUPER EPIC LEGEND

FEATURED SONG:

REC – “Korean Pop Song” (from The Sunshine Seminar)

STREAM IT EVERYWHERE


Video games have been a part of our lives for almost 50 years. Almost all of those games have had music associated with them. Some of that music has become iconic, even to non-gamers.

This week’s MxG is all about video game music. Where it came from. How it developed. What it has inspired. I go into the full history, and name check a bunch of legendary & favorite songs & soundtracks.

What are some of your favorite video game songs? Can you hum one right now, even though you haven’t heard it in years? Do you think video game music can be as good as “regular” music? Discuss dammit!
