While we wait for the new episode of VGMpire (which I’m currently editing, btw), why not sample some Mega Man remix love with this newly released (and extremely well done) tribute album, Mega Ran 10? There’s even a vinyl version if you like pops and cracks all over your pristine 8-bit tunes. I kid, I kid.
Yuzo Koshiro puts the Super NES’ sound capabilities to good use, combining tropical tunes with early ’90s beats to make a unique, overlooked soundtrack.
Welcome to our very first episode! Brett, Chris and Tyler kick things off with a tribute to Tim and Geoff Follin, two of gaming’s best 8 and 16-bit composers.
Hello everyone, Brelston here. Trying to get this thing off the ground, should be up and running shortly. The goal – a weekly podcast devoted to sharing and exploring various game soundtracks, not unlike my older “Game music of the day” posts on GamesRadar. But now, I’ll run through several songs per game, and also try to point you in the direction of legit ways to purchase said VGM.
And in case the name isn’t clear, VGM = Video Game Music, mixed with Empire. I had to explain it to someone once, so it stands to reason other people might not make the connection either. I unnastand!
