Video Game Mixtape

Aaaaaand we're back! Apologies for the long delay, friends. Life, uh, uh, uh, finds a way. But we're back with a vengeance! Titles themes are the name of the game for this episode. Any piece of music that is featured in the main title of a game was in play here and boy howdy do we have some gems. From simple piano jingles to the most epic of world music, this is an episode you don't want to miss.

It's all about the Blue Bomber, ladies and gentelmen! Mega Man is my favorite video game character of all time so i thought it was only fitting to dedicate at least a couple of episodes to him. We're plowing through a trio of golden tracks from the first five Mega Man games in this episode. I'd say there's almost too much Mega Man to handle, but that's impossible.

Step into the ring (or street, or forest, or fountain, or any other possible location to fight) and put up your dukes! This week, we're listening to some of the most knuckle-bloodying tracks from fighting games new and old. SNES, Playstation, Dreamcast and more enter this battle royal and, well, they all leave and go get coffee or something afterward. No losers here.

Unless you don't listen to this episode. Then you're a loser. Sorry, loser.

Cheater! Dirty cheater! Yes, my friends, it's true. I'm cheating this episode with some content I made years ago. It's good, though! I swear! A few years ago, I made a few episodes of something called "Super Shred Soundtrack" and instead of having it completely die, I thought I'd pop it up on here and give it a second life. So, turn up the volume and jam out to a trio of SNES games.

Brrrrrrr... is it cold in here or is it just this music? This episode is dedicated to some of the coldest (and coolest, if I do say so myself) music in games. From SNES RPGs to Wii U platformers, these snow and ice themes are sure to send a shiver down your spine. Bundle up and push play!

Back to the mix, ladies and gentlemen! We've got quite the eclectic grouping for this episode and GASP we're skipping the NES this time. Yes indeed, it's straight to the SNES out of the gate for some monkey business followed by some explosive (har har har, you'll get it) tracks from an N64 sleeper hit. Then, it's on to the handheld realm for some spookiness and warfare followed by... SPORTS (but maybe not the kind you're thinking of).

Hello friends! It's only the second episode but I'm already breaking out the special mixes. Equip your sword and shield (and hookshot and bombs and bow and iron boots and...) because we're descending into the depths of some of the greatest dungeons in the history of The Legend of Zelda. The series has way too many atmospheric and melodic dungeon themes to include them all, but I've narrowed it down to some of the best from the NES days all the way to the third dimension. It's dangerous to go alone. Take this (episode).

We're live! It's the first episode of Video Game Mixtape and boy are there some gems in this one. From SNES carnage, a soaring N64 song, iron fisted action on the PS2 and much more, the inaugural episode doesn't disappoint. Check it out!
