Okay, but, like, hear me out. Kinda want to push this further, musically, but it makes me yearn for an event that plays with this idea. 🎶 #deadbydaylight #retro #VGM #covermusic #gamemusic (Sega 'ditties' splash provided by @feralknights.bsky.social )

Next on rotation: ToeJam Jammin’ from the beautiful mess that is the #Genesis classic ToeJam & Earl. If this doesn’t make you mentally hear screeching Super Hi-Tops, random belches, and that elevator ding, I’ve failed you. #vgm #gamemusic #toejamandearl

Here is my soprano saxophone cover of 'Gusty Garden Galaxy' originally from the game "Super Mario Galaxy." Listening to this song has always put me in a good mood. Hope you enjoy! 🎷• 🎹

Four more tracks already in the hopper for the next release. Really hoping to exhume some really oft-neglected tracks, though, so as to not fall into the trap of covering the tracks that everyone already knows. 🤔

Shuffling over to track 8 of our Bitslapped release, we have Pirate Lagoon from Diddy Kong Racing, released on the #N64 in 1997. Originally composed by the legendary @davidwise.bsky.social, lovingly covered using fresh instrumentation. #vgm #gamemusic #gameaudio #gaming

First track from Bitslapped: The main theme from Space Harrier, which was released by #Sega to the #Arcade in 1985. Had a lot of fun with this one and tried to preserve the nostalgic vibe by combining synth with orchestral voices. Feedback welcome! #retrogaming #vgm #gamemusic #gameaudio #gaming

#vgm Cover of Insectia from Bug! for Saturn and Windows PC. Really wanted to jazz it up a bit more, and this is the result. Tossed in some trivia and other details as there was some nostalgia for VH1's Pop-Up Video show. #gamemusic #videogamemusic

We literally didn't even know that Uniracers existed until a week ago, and now we can't get its title song out of our heads. Guess that means it's going to end up in the next release. #vgm #vgmusic #gamemusic #videogamemusic
