All your favorite VGM podcasters are doing a series called “Masters of VGM”, where we do episodes devoted to our favorite video game composers. For my fourth and final entry into this series, I’m talking all about the incomparable Yuzo Koshiro, composer for Streets of Rage 1 and 2, Etrian Odyssey, Ys I and II, the Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune series, and dozens of other games.

On this special bonus episode of Very Good Music, Bedroth is proud to present his VGM podcasting colleague Andre, host of the Brazilian O Som do Cartucho podcast! As one of only three international podcasts joining the event, and as the only podcast whose regular episodes have been released entirely in a language other than English, “Cartridge’s Sound” definitely lends a unique flavor to the proceedings.

Pixelated Audio joins the many podcasts participating in the Masters of VGM (@MastersofVGM) event organized by bedroth, host of Very Good Music and BGMania. Masters of VGM is a month long event of participating podcasts and their own on take on who they think are the best of the best!

We picked 8 veteran VGM Masters and aimed for a good blend of well known and lesser known tracks to keep things interesting. As always we hope you enjoy!

I’m coming in just under the wire to get in on the fun of the Masters of VGM topic going around the video game music podcast community, but I made it! I hemmed and hawed over these picks quite a bit, and this list could have turned out differently depending on the day. That said, I’m happy with my picks as I think they not only deserve to be called masters of their craft, but are also very representative of my musical interests and the general vibe of this podcast. So sit back and enjoy listening to a curated list of music from Motoi Sakuraba, Yasunori Mitsuda, Takahiro Unisuga, and Jane-Evelyn Nisperos.

Today’s Broadcast is C2E8 for Theme Thursday, June 30th, 2022.

All your favorite VGM podcasters are doing a series called “Masters of VGM”, where we do episodes devoted to our favorite video game composers. For my second entry into this series, we’ll listen to the greatest hits of Shoji Meguro. This episode also serves as a de facto mixtape for the Persona games, since Meguro composed most of the music for the series.
