Vacation Destinations

Episode #385 of BGMania: A Video Game Music Podcast. Today on the show, Bryan and Bedroth set off on a globe-trotting musical adventure with Vacation Destinations. From grand European-inspired capitals to spooky holiday towns, from the sun-drenched vineyards of Toussaint to the vibrant celebrations of Rio, we’re exploring songs that capture the spirit of travel, culture, and escape.

Each track is more than just music, it’s a ticket to another world. You’ll hear songs that evoke scenic road trips, bustling markets, cozy villages, romantic landscapes, and even a few places where things get just a little eerie. Whether you’re the kind of traveler who loves relaxation, adventure, or the strange and unusual, there’s something here for everyone. No passport required—just a good pair of headphones and a love for video game music.
