Panzer Dragoon Saga or Azel has been on the Pixelated Audio radar for some time and we couldn’t be happier that it’s finally here. The stars aligned and with the help of Alex Aniel of Brave Wave Productions, Saori Kobayashi became the first confirmed Japanese guest to come to MAGWest 3 in California. We had… Read More »
Stefan's interview with composers Manami Matsumae (Megaman 1 & 10, Mighty No. 9, Shovel Knight) and Takahiro Izutani (Metal Gear Solid 4, MGS: Portable Ops, Bayonetta 1 & 2). Also featuring Alexander Aniel to help with translating! All three of them are with Brave Wave Productions. They were asked about their composer work from the various games, including their presence in Smash Bros. Alex got his Switch Lite out to check which songs were in the game! Stefan was given 20 minutes with all three of them. Alex and Takahiro helped with translating Manami's answers. It was a fairly casual interview with many translations, so it required heavy editing to flow well. This edit includes a second of Manami talking in Japanese before Alex translated. Hopefully this makes it easy to follow. The music is captured from Alex's copy of Smash Bros, so hopefully it's fair use! Radio edit aired 14th October 2019.

Darkness. Emptiness. Silence. Only dim and distant lights, providing no heat and only scant illumination to an otherwise cold and barren expanse. Is this episode about: a) Your wallet after record release day b) Outer space c) Why not both? Welcome back, star voyager, as we bring you the warmth and music of another Video Game Grooves episode! This time we are joined by Mohammed Taher of Brave Wave Productions for an exciting episode about spaaaaace! We begin with the 2018 Data Discs release of Policenauts, one of the early oeuvres of Hideo Kojima. The fairly-uncredited music captures the buddy-cop genre with a jazz backdrop to keep you pointin' and clickin' and investigatin' space cases, and we discuss our own musical maturity. Next, we let Mohammed off the hook as we explore the 4X musical genre in Endless Space 2, released by G4F. We learn to let music breathe a bit as the FlyByNo score walks the line between melodic and ambient, and Mo makes his love known for the Amplitude Studios series, and mmmmaybe even sneaks in an extra feature track! ;) We cover the news and new releases, which aren't too taxing this time around, but a few interesting finds will keep your turntable busy for a long time to come. Finally we discuss your community answers to the question "What bonanzas have you found 'in the wild?'" A few of you have gotten verrry lucky and we are so jealous. Mohammed teases us with an exclusive announcement or two, and we rocket off for reaches unknown (and our next episode)! Outro: "No! No! No!" - Policenauts, by Konami Kukeiha Club Twitter - @vg_grooves, @walnutsoap, @jeremy_lamont, @ajohnagnello, @robokick Brave Wave Productions website Brave Wave Productions twitter Links: Smooth McGroove - VGM Acapella Volume 1 (Yetee Records) Endless Legend – Vinyl Edition (G4F Records) Wargroove (Yetee Records) Metro Exodus (Italian Amazon) (Russian retailer) Lil Bub’s Hello Earth (LilBub.com) Image Gallery
Welcome to you, O Listener! You of discerning ear and taste, are welcome here to our niche little corner of the internet to partake in the bounty of video game music on vinyl record, which, you can see in our tagline, we ❤️ video game music on vinyl record! In what may be our most "Sh-" episode ever, we are joined by Mohammed Taher from Brave Wave Productions for our hush-hush feature picks! The first one is Shenmue, from Sega, in honor of the HD remakes of Shenmue 1 and 2 released earlier this month! We return again to the 80s, to the way we all wanted to be: destiny, drama, a quest of parental reconciliation, and forklifts. Anthony guides us like a gentle sensei through the portent-fraught stylings of the game and Paul (as the sole representative player of the game) provides sailor-free commentary. Next we continue our tradition of "Sh-" games with Shovel Knight! Mohammed brings a lot of inside information about working with Jake Kaufman, Minami Matsumae, and the involvement of Brave Wave in the development of the gam itself. We explore the textures of chiptune music and pick a couple of tracks from what was in two different "Top 3" picks of 2017! In our second segment, we cover news and releases, and discuss some of the difficulties associated with region restrictions on sales (Paul volunteers to be YOUR vinyl mule), as well as a few represses and some tips about how to protect your shipments from Amazon. Finally in our third segment we discuss game platforms that just haven't received enough love and representation from the vinyl format. Also we hear some wise observations from Mohammed about opportunity. Let us know what you think in the comments or on Twitter about any and all!

As The Newest STAGE of the Retro VGM Revival Hour is being prepared, Guest Host Robert Menes Thought It would Be a Great way to treat you, the loyal listener, to something new and special. Consider this a "mini Episode' as it were, where A particular soundtrack from a game series is analyzed further and given the proper spotlight it deserves. While video game soundtrack releases in Japan are a common practice, in the West, it was only recently that such soundtrack releases became more commonplace. The Art of Fighting soundtrack is no exception, and on October 13, 2017, Brave Wave Productions delivered to SNK fans their definitive edition of this brilliant soundtrack, lovingly remastered by the game’s original sound team, the NEO Sound Orchestra. =======================Track Listing===================== 1.)
