The Legacy Music Hour Video Game Music Podcast ·

2025/11/19

The boizz returned from the beyond, with a new classic free play of third and fourth generation tracks. Diving right in, we're starting out with a golf game, so you already know you're in for some good music. "Hole Overview" from New 3D Golf Simulation: Waialae no Kiseki is a really uplifting and energetic track, making it different from the usual smooth jazz sound you probably expect

The Legacy Music Hour Video Game Music Podcast ·

2025/11/12

The boizz went beyond once again, for the tenth Beyond 16-Bit episode. Of course there are still tracks that sound like they could have come from the third and fourth generation. Jake Kaufman's distinct retro style shines in "Credits" from Regular Show: Mordecai and Rigby in 8-Bit Land. Enrique Martin (Pentadrangle) also kills it with a modern take on the classic approach in "

Time to get jazzed for another quality packed mixtape! After twelve years, the boizz returned to the topic of Jazz Music.

LMH Mixtape #271: Shooters

The Legacy Music Hour Video Game Music Podcast ·

2025/10/22

Not to be confused with "Flying and Shooting," this episode topic includes ANY type of shooting, and with that in mind, we're gonna shoot right out of the gate with an incredibly bonk track. Or more accurately, a Super Bonk track! "Shoot the Smiley!" from Super Bonk on the SNES has an infectious and uplifting melody that gets this mixtape started right. "Team/Settings Select"

LMH Mixtape #270: Court

The Legacy Music Hour Video Game Music Podcast ·

2025/10/15

All rise, court is in session. Today we will be presenting evidence that the Legacy Music Hour is guilty of spreading video game music of the "tenner" variety. Exhibit A: "Title Screen" from Honkaku Mahjong: Tetsuman II. This track clearly demonstrates a smooth and jazzy tone which builds into a fantastic sax piece at the end. Exhibit B: "Stage 5" from Shadow of the Ninja

LMH Mixtape #269: Tracks That End

The Legacy Music Hour Video Game Music Podcast ·

2025/10/08

This episode had a fun theme: tracks that end. Meaning, tracks that don't loop indefinitely. That's right, you'll find a lot of title themes and ending/credits tracks here, as opposed to stage BGMs which usually loop. "Opening" from Shadow of the Ninja is a great example of a title piece that can get you pumped to start a game. And "Opening" from Track & Field on the

LMH Mixtape #267: Wishing There Was More

The Legacy Music Hour Video Game Music Podcast ·

2025/09/17

Have you've ever listened to a track and liked it, but wished there was more? That was the theme for this episode. For example, the short, twenty second long track from Gomola Speed sounds like the beginning of an 80's goth or new wave track. While still good on its own, it leaves you wishing there was just a bit more. Of course, these opinions are all subjective. So

LMH Mixtape #266: The Three Tenners

Be sure to listen for the cool, bluesy breakdown towards the end of the track. "Ending" from Panorama Cotton

You don't need to hack the system to access these great tracks. They've been compiled into this convenient mixtape, just for you! There's a lot to explore here, starting with a pumped up piece from the run-and-gun game Ranger X.

LMH Mixtape #263: Ballads

The Legacy Music Hour Video Game Music Podcast ·

2025/08/13

You would be forgiven for thinking the focus of this episode was ending music, which makes sense considering ballads are often used for ending tracks. Ballads traditionally tell a story or narrative, and while these tracks are purely instrumental, they still convey a lot through emotion. Whether it's an ending track to reflect upon your completed adventure, a specific character's

LMH Mixtape #262: Briefs

The Legacy Music Hour Video Game Music Podcast ·

2025/07/30

There's a lot to say about the music in this mixtape, but I'll try to keep it brief. "The Final Space Fight (Stage 6)" from Falsion comes in strong with that iconic Konami sound we all know. Following that, "Options Theme ~ City Area" from Kid Chameleon is a total funk-fest with some great slappin' crunchy bass similar to something you might hear in Toejam & Earl. "Exodus (

2025/07/23

After over two hundred episodes later, our cowboizz have rode back into town to share a second round of Old West tracks. That means games or stages within games that have an Old West theme, and as you'll see, this waterin' hole hasn't run dry yet.The journey begins with "Scenario 4" from Gunple: Gunman’s Proof.

Episode 260 is packed with so many great tunes. From the start, we get a really fun track, "Balanced BGM" from the Sega arcade game Ace Attacker, which sounds bright and optimistic with a little attitude thrown in. "One's Side" from Langrisser II is a great motivational piece with a driving beat that makes excellent use of the Mega Drive's musical capabilities. That's followed

LMH Mixtape #259: Pubescent Fangs

The Legacy Music Hour Video Game Music Podcast ·

2025/07/09

It's another classic free play with all the variety you expect. Starting off with Falsion, a Famicom Disk System game, you get a quality third gen style piece. "Main Theme" from Metal Fangs for the Mega Drive is short but builds tension in a fantastic way. "Credits" from the PC Engine game 1943 Kai is a total jam that will stick with you. And that's just a taste of what to
