Share Your Bops - VGM Edition

Reminds me of when PSO First launched shortly before Valentine's Day, so it had all the corresponding decor and music for that event. At the time I had no idea that the music was special, and when the holiday passed, the music went back to this track and I was like "WTF, I like the other music more!"

Still do, but this one is pretty good also.

The lyrics "It's a long, long run to the palace in the sun" live in my head rent free. I love the opening and ending themes for PSO.

Everyone loves some town theme.

What is it about Castlevania music that is such a visceral jam?

Vagrant Story has me wanting to revisit Parasite Eve in a big way. Thanks for sharing, Inspector, and also welcome!

InspectorTequila , that Chrono Cross overworld theme was one of my favorite tracks in the OST- I LOVE how heart-wrenching this one is.

One of the best "town" themes, IMO. Great bass line if you've got a sub or punchy speakers.

As I gear up for my stream, I've been relistening to the various works of Iwadare. I adore the Grandia soundtrack, but honestly this track in particular has been living in my brain for over 20 years. I'd say rent free but the beauty I found in it has helped it earn its keep.

Sunsoft Batman on the NES always felt super solid to me as a kid.

Some of the best "elevator" type music in gaming. The CD version stands out. There are three main tracks for the three main courses and this one is my fav.

There's a project generating FLAC 96/24 version of many 16-bit era soundtrack. If you have the equipment to play them back, worth a look.
