For all you lonely boys and girls out there (and non-lonely people too), it's time for all new elevator music episode.  This particular installment of elevator jams happens to be on more of the smooth and sexy side, so if you're going through a hard time right now, romantically, let Brent and Rob's VGM picks keep you company.  They also feature a first ever exclusive, never before heard

Episode 18 made LMH history by featuring the first interview with a legendary VGM composer.  The focus was on none other than Hirokazu "Hip" Tanaka, who had graciously agreed to answer questions by e-mail.  Brent and Rob re-enacted the interview on the air in between their selected tracks, with Rob playing the part of the dignified Tanaka-san and Brent playing the roles of both boizz.&

Just as the puzzle genre covers a surprisingly broad range of topics (falling blocks, wandering rodents, time-traveling vikings), so do the games' soundtracks serve up a great deal of musical variety.  Rock, classical, new age, funk, hip-hop, and even industrial nightmare fuel find their place in this highly eclectic mixtape.

The boizz are back in action and breakin’ the law for Episode 160 of The Legacy Music Hour.  The topic is Adapted Music.  What once was an illegal move for LMH becomes a solid episode featuring 8-bit and 16-bit arrangements of film, television, and classical music.  We also get to the bottom of F. Switch’s profound yet mysterious reasoning for his track picks from Episode 159. 

Brent and Rob consider their sports focuses to be among the podcast's most underrated episodes -- but who doesn't love a chance to root for the underdog?  Whether it's for football, volleyball, skateboarding, or slalom, settle into the bleachers for this one and see if you become a bigger fan of the music the second time around.
