LMH Mixtape #93: Toys

Toizz!  This time Brent and Rob took us through the toy aisle for a sampling of games featuring licensed and unlicensed playthings, as well as tunes from toy-themed titles and levels in general.  Barbie proves she's a force to be reckoned with by capturing a full third of the setlist, and the Treasure Trolls track may inspire you to ad-lib a positive 80’s rap.  There's a lot of wholesome fun to be had here, so queue up this mixtape and get playing!

Episode 93: Toys

Brent and Rob put out some real positive energy in this episode of The Legacy Music Hour, which focuses on toys.  That is, music from video games based on toys and toylines, as well as games and game stages that are toy-themed.  It all ends up being a sort of focus on Barbie, kind of like how ducks became the focus of the Cartoons episode.  Pink was the new black, now Barbie is the new duck.  Also, Rob performs a rap!  And best of all, there's tons of positivity.  Full track listing below.
