That Skitchin track has some tuning issues. The guitar is out of tune with the other voices. It is especially noticeable when the synth lead comes in.
ReplyDeleteI had to look up the different members of the band Japan to see if any of the Populous composers were in the band. If you've heard the album Tin Drum, it sounds like it could have been on that album (to me) or even the Dali's Car stuff.
ReplyDeleteThe high volume of quality jokes in this episode really had me in SKitches.
I was a little disappointed that the Turbografx-16 and Master System were left out of this episode. The tracks picked out were excellent as always, but lately these two systems always seem to be excluded. There are some great gems on those systems.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, the name of that anime the Running Man short was on is Neo Tokyo.
That Populous track was fantastic. I was totally perplexed by the sound of it. It almost reminded me of some sort of Norwegian black metal song, all it was missing was blast beats and corpse paint. Great episode, I am closing in on being totally caught up with your catalog.
ReplyDeleteYou know, whatever software you're using to play the SNES tracks really makes them sound terrible. You've commented on SNES music's samples being "muffled". But that Romancing SaGa 2 track sounded SO different to what I'm used to that I had to compare it to the actual song: https://youtu.be/lJMwa1Z6vwA?t=7m27s
ReplyDeleteWay better.
Hey there dudes, just a minor heads-up; on your listing of the Musya track, "Title" is typed out "TItle," with an uppercase "I." Super dumb and minor lol but the editor in me wanted to bring it up.
