One of my favorite jazz video game covers comes from Estradasphere that did a remix of Super Mario Brothers 2 (American version)'s music entitled "Super Buck II."
Kingdom Hearts, for all of its much-due ridicule, really does music very well. "Dearly Beloved," which is the menu screen/probably most recognizable theme across all the games, is such a rich and beautiful melody. I just heard Hayward's orchestral arrangement and its very hard not to feel a deep swell of emotions from it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LxblKlPf89E #music#videogamemusic#kingdomhearts
Can we just appreciate how HARD #sonic music goes!? Even in the lesser games, there always seems to be a lot of effort put into the Soundtracks, and #SonicFrontiers seems to go especially hardcore on the cyberspace stages and boss fights.
"I'm Here", and stages 2-6, 3-2, 3-6, and 4-1 are my frequent listens
Seeing this week's theme for theme for #VGMWednesday is #GamingLikeAKid... I know the song from my childhood that made me a lifelong fan of composer Michiko Naruke!
