This episode had a fun theme: tracks that end.  Meaning, tracks that don't loop indefinitely.  That's right, you'll find a lot of title themes and ending/credits tracks here, as opposed to stage BGMs which usually loop.  "Opening" from Shadow of the Ninja is a great example of a title piece that can get you pumped to start a game.  And "Opening" from Track & Field on the

Today we highlight a composer and games that don't often appear on the show. Naoshi Mizuta's music credits span 30 years, and much of that time has been with Square Enix leading the charge on Final Fantasy XI's soundtrack. That Final Fantasy XI, which launched in 2002 on PC and the PlayStation 2 (TWO!), is still running today is a feat in itself. But so are Mizuta's continued efforts to create music for it and many other games over that time. Today we feature several different types of FFXI tracks among other great works by this talented composer and arranger.Featuring: Mike Salbato, Hilary Andreff, Audra Bowling, Patrick Gann; Edited by Jono LoganTracklistThirteensies0:13:11 - Eternal Winds - The Dead Dunes (English Ver.)

Have you've ever listened to a track and liked it, but wished there was more?  That was the theme for this episode.  For example, the short, twenty second long track from Gomola Speed sounds like the beginning of an 80's goth or new wave track.  While still good on its own, it leaves you wishing there was just a bit more.  Of course, these opinions are all subjective.  So

We last celebrated the beloved Wild Arms series in 2022's episode 93, where we paired its Western stylings with Shadow Hearts, in honor of the then-new Armed Fantasia/Penny Blood Kickstarter. Now, almost exactly three years later, we are talking exclusively about Wild Arms. This series of RPGs from Media.Vision and Sony featured a distinctive Wild West flair, with exciting soundtracks to boot.While there sadly have been no new games in the series since 2007's Wild Arms XF (unless you count Wild Arms: Million Memories and its less-than-two-year mobile game lifespan, which we aren't!), we still have five main games, a remake, and a tactical spinoff packed with memorable music, almost all of which feature on today's show.

From his work on Jazz Arrange Version: Chrono Cross to a 3 "disc" full remaster arrangement of Final Fantasy VI and so much more that even two hours only covered so much of it!But it was a great conversation with music you don't want to miss.

 In this third installment of the unique and contrasting "Deep Dive" series, Karl & Will zoom way in on ONE piece of video game music! They thoroughly explore one of the most gorgeous VGM tracks, Chrono Trigger's “Secret of the Forest". Enjoy!

On this week's episode, we keep the good times rolling as Torrey and Eric discuss the offseason moves of the teams in the NHL's Pacific Division. We give our thoughts on who we see finishing where in the division, along with who we thought took the biggest steps. Catch Nattering E CHEL on Fridays on VGM and Nattering With E Networks, along with Nattering BOLA Wednesdays on the same networks!

You would be forgiven for thinking the focus of this episode was ending music, which makes sense considering ballads are often used for ending tracks.  Ballads traditionally tell a story or narrative, and while these tracks are purely instrumental, they still convey a lot through emotion.  Whether it's an ending track to reflect upon your completed adventure, a specific character's

Welcome back to a bonus episode of Nattering BOLA. Before we head back for the 2023 and final tournament, we're busting out the Delorean and heading to Threemendous V from July 13, 2018. At this event, we saw a passing of the torch, if you will, as PWG stalwarts, the Young Bucks, were getting ready to form AEW with the other members of the Elite, and were challenging the Razcalz for the PWG Tag Titles. As always, catch us where you get your pods for VGM and Nattering E Networks. The match can be found at this link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nkXzTEBfW2A&ab_channel=SportINDIE

Call it spring, some spring and some summer, or the most accurate but boring moniker, "Q2 2025," but the second quarter of this year saw the release of some VERY musically important titles in RPGFan's coverage. While Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 looms over everything in the RPG space for this time period, there were many notable other releases that also deserve your time, from RPGs to adventure games and visual novels.Oh, and classic RPG fans, just for the record, Mike would have included a song in honor of the overdue release of the Super Mario RPG (Remake + SNES) OST if he hadn't featured that game in our prior episode!As usual, we also have a longer list below of the many albums and releases we considered for this episode, so don't miss it!Featuring: Mike Salbato, Hilary Andreff; Edited by Mike SalbatoLinks for this episodeRose Betts' WebsiteMedieval Lofi on BandcampThe 8-Bit Big Band - "Orchestrator Emulator" Album (YouTube)Tracklist0:07:51 - The 80s Called (Thomas Regin) - Old Skies0:13:23 - Encounter Elite!

There's a lot to say about the music in this mixtape, but I'll try to keep it brief.  "The Final Space Fight (Stage 6)" from Falsion comes in strong with that iconic Konami sound we all know.  Following that, "Options Theme ~ City Area" from Kid Chameleon is a total funk-fest with some great slappin' crunchy bass similar to something you might hear in Toejam & Earl.  "Exodus (

After a brief break, Bauer and Eric return to VGM and the Nattering With E Networks to bring you night one of the 2022 Battle of Los Angeles. Coincidentally, the storyline throughout PWG BOLA coincided with the real-life break caused by the pandemic, which disrupted PWG and many other indies, as there were no 2020 or 2021 tournaments. We pick up on night one with some fantastic action, as we get all eight first-round matches! We also ponder if our music would be any good without our good pal Will from Will and Tom's ROH Revelry podcast! As always, catch us on Wednesdays, where you get your pods for the Visionaries Global Media and Nattering With E Networks.

After over two hundred episodes later, our cowboizz have rode back into town to share a second round of Old West tracks.  That means games or stages within games that have an Old West theme, and as you'll see, this waterin' hole hasn't run dry yet.The journey begins with "Scenario 4" from Gunple: Gunman's Proof.  This track features a great whistled melody which is a classic trait of

Support Night Clerk Radio on Patreon First of all, sorry for the hecked up timing of recent episode releases. Ross and I have both had family in town which makes sticking to our usual schedule a bit difficult. Things should be back to normal here shortly.Anyways! In this episode, Ross and I set out to find some new summer dungeon synth. That didn't work out, so by complete chance Ross went with dungeon synth and I went with summer. It doesn't matter! We ended up finding two super fun albums. Start your day off with a little patrol loop around The Borderlands then come back and settle into a nice air conditioned theater and enjoy some Summer Blockbusters.

The Switch 2 is here! Is what we would have opened with had this episode gone up on time. Still, Nintendo's latest is the newest console on the market and it's doing pretty well, so we gathered up some fans of Nintendo music for this one. To try something new and to celebrate a wider range of Nintendo music history, each panelist was allowed to choose one non-RPG song, which resulted in a great episode of both expected and unexpected musical choices.Even branching out like this barely scratches the surface of Nintendo's long music history, but we gotta start somewhere!

Episode 260 is packed with so many great tunes.  From the start, we get a really fun track, "Balanced BGM" from the Sega arcade game Ace Attacker, which sounds bright and optimistic with a little attitude thrown in.  "One's Side" from Langrisser II is a great motivational piece with a driving beat that makes excellent use of the Mega Drive's musical capabilities.  That's followed

It's another classic free play with all the variety you expect.  Starting off with Falsion, a Famicom Disk System game, you get a quality third gen style piece.  "Main Theme" from Metal Fangs for the Mega Drive is short but builds tension in a fantastic way.  "Credits" from the PC Engine game 1943 Kai is a total jam that will stick with you.  And that's just a taste of what to

The topic of this episode is “interesting” music, whatever that means.  It's kind of open to interpretation, but if you really get down to it, it basically means good tracks in an unusual way.  Along with the music, you get a couple nice morse code solos, Rob tries out some Seinfeld-esque stand-up comedy, and there's a listening appreciation session to at least one emergency test
