RPGFan's Rhythm Encounter

112 - With Jazz in Our Hearts and Funk in Our Souls


Listen Later

It's time to get down! In this panel, the Rhythm crew has selected some favorite jazz and funk tracks in RPGs. Not styles of music that first come to mind when thinking of RPGs, and indeed, that's part of their charm and effect! How have game composers and arrangers adopted these styles while arranging or used them to build on the game itself? We consider those questions while listening to some excellent and catchy music. Join us as we add some creativity, improvisation, and fun to our RPG music intake. Even Motoi Sakuraba is getting on this, so we hope you will too and enjoy the range of songs we have for you today!

Featuring: Hilary Andreff, Gio Castillo, Michael Sollosi; Edited by Jono Logan
