Many of my favorite video game soundtracks are from Japanese eroge/hentai games that I've never even played... but this stuff is so good

If you like #DOS, #SNES, or #dungeonsynth inspired music... well...
It's Bandcamp Friday (meaning the artists keep 100% of the sale). So, Let's do $3.33 for the latest album.

Since posting up my Goldfinger album cover re-creation earlier this week for Music Monday, I've had them on the brain.

So, for VGM Wednesday, I'm going to post their one song that is so intrinsically tied to video games it instantly makes you think of them.

Here's Goldfinger's "Superman," which many folks first heard in Tony Hawk Pro-Skater https://songwhip.com/goldfinger/superman

Friends, followers and musically curious onlookers, I could really use some listens today! I'm an independent who makes weird, for listening to from the couch. If you're new to my oeuvre, this is the best place to start:

https://etherdiver.bandcamp.com/album/psychedelic-ghost-stories

10 tracks of alien rhythms, wizard synth anthems and dubbed-out ghostwave inspired by , , and more.

Have a listen! Then give it a boost!

If you're already familiar with that one, and/or like your #WeirdMusic a little more in the #drone, #ambient and #soundscape vein, your next stop is Metaphysical Shitposting, which you'll find here:

https://etherdiver.bandcamp.com/album/metaphysical-shitposting

This one is more purely #experimental and heavily features the use of #ModularSynth and other outre tools including multitrack #cassette #recorders, #toys, #FeedbackLoops and more.

Even if you've checked it out before, I've added multiple new tracks in the past 30 days!

@etherdiver I really liked this, really strong John Carpenter vibes, which to me is a very good thing

From my last repost, that's a great mix of composers to collaborate on an album!

The album, Giants, has composers that have worked on Mega Man, Ninja Gaiden, Final Fantasy, Sonic, Celeste, and the like. Well worth checking out!

Bonus: it's available on Bandcamp!

This past weekend, we stopped at a tiny arcade at the hotel I stayed at with the family. They have one of the two greatest arcade games of all time - Ms. Pac-Man and Mortal Kombat II.

Don't argue with me...that's totally a fact.

Regardless, as the main screens cycled through I took this picture. There was a screen that showed up with details on how to order the soundtrack as well as two different Mortal Kombat comic books back when this dropped in 1993.

I wonder...do you think that's still valid? And if not, do you think there's folks out there who still have copies of these comics / the CD? Cause...I kind of want them.

Also, who stood around in an arcade in 1993 with a pen and paper to write down all this information? Cause I want to meet those people too...

...And borrow the soundtrack from them.

Next Wednesday musical hashtag!

It's @miona's VGM Wednesday.

Last week reminded me of some of the classic @ocremix tracks I used to listen to.

Here is Estradasphere's big band inspire remake of Super Mario Brothers 2's overworld music entitled, "Super Buck II." https://ocremix.org/remix/OCR00577

Check it out!

@mdmrn they were incredible. It’s Understood, Buck Fever (where Super Buck II is from) and Quadropus are all outstanding albums. Their ability to move between genres fluidly and effortlessly (often within the same song) sets them apart from the rest of the avante garde crowd imo. And they just had the chops to do it too.

@mdmrn@urusai.social avatar

@matt Very cool! May need to look into more stuff from them!

Since we're themeless for @miona's VGM Wednesday this week, I'm going to go with my favorite @ocremix album of al time - "Project Chaos."

Project Chaos is a fan remix album of the music from Sonic 3 and Knuckles. The album originally dropped in 2006 and I love it to this day.

Check it out here: https://ocremix.org/album/9/sonic-3-and-knuckles-project-chaos
