    What an amazing feeling to stumble over a still-active podcast with so many episodes to go back through at one’s leisure! I know nothing about video game audio, but I like vintage games, and I’m enjoying the experience of picking things up and learning from context. Really appreciate the thoughtful tone and easy rapport between the hosts and their guests.

    This program enthusiastically and fair introduces pieces of music of even JRPG such as Lunar from MEGA-CD, or Illusion City from PC-9801. I realize why English-speaking Westerners have dominated the world, for the thorough collections of video game music like these aren't available in my country, where some of these pieces are composed though.
