Reese couldn't join me this week so I brought a guest along to talk about some Hitoshi Sakimoto tracks for the 3rd episode of Masters of VGM this year. I really wanted to highlight some of Sakimoto's lesser known stuff so there's no Ogre Battle or Final Fantasy here but I'm sure you'll agree it's a fine selection of more obscure tracks from one of the all time greats. Thanks to Harlot for joining me on the pod this week and enjoy!
