LMH Mixtape #108: TV Shows

The Legacy Music Hour had previously showcased tunes from video games based on animated cartoon shows, so why not cast into the television pool again with a different kind of net?  This time the Rob and Brent pull up music from the live-action side of things, from American game shows all the way to Japanese tokusatsu programs.  PRO TIP: Listen back to the original episode for some bonus discussions of Full House!

LMH Mixtape #107: Board Games

Board games and video games might seem like apples and oranges at first glance, but that analogy really sells their relationship short -- especially when they're combined!  The mixtape result of this entertainment fusion is also the perfect backdrop for contemplating further philosophical concepts, such as, "Is Connect Four a board game?" and "Has Rob F. Switch finally played Clue by now?"  So enjoy these jams from Legacy Music Hour Episode 107, which are not only THE jam, but just JAM.

Episode 219: Two

Two.  Interesting choice to call this episode "Two."  Brent and Rob cover lots of ground, lots of popular bands and artists of the 80's and 90's, that is.  Some weird mystery sounds come out of Gabe and Brent as well.  Also, a new Legacy Music Hour tribute VGM Karaoke by user Julián (aka ysy-y).  Full track listing below.

LMH Mixtape #106: Side-Scrolling and Platforming 2

Episode 106 was the Legacy Music Hour's second side-scrolling and platforming focus, and man, it was GOOD.  As far as KeyGlyph is concerned, it introduced her to not one, not two, but THREE new tracks that became instant ultra favorites, and they've stayed that way for her ever since.  If you felt the same way about any of these tunes, get ready to have your world rocked all over again.  Seriously.  What a lineup.

LMH Mixtape #105: Castlevania

Castlevania had certainly been no stranger to the Legacy Music Hour during the show's first two years, but by Episode 105 there was still so much music left to feature that it was time for a dedicated series focus.  If that was your jam, be sure to equip this mixtape as your subweapon so you can enjoy the tunes all over again whenever you have the hearts to spare.

LMH Mixtape #104: Best Of Year In Review 2

We're finally closing out season two of the Legacy Music Hour mixtapes, which means it's time to tackle another Best Of Year In Review!  If you're not familiar with the way this goes, this mixtape will alternate between Brent and Rob's top ten favorite new VGM discoveries from Episodes 52 - 103. Rob's #10 pick starts us off, followed by Brent's #10 -- and thus the pattern continues until we build our way up to the boizz' #1s.  Cap it off with a bonus closing track from A Link to the Past, and the end result is a towering setlist of condensed musical power, and now it's yours for the taking.

LMH Mixtape #100: Free Play 10

As the mixtapes finally reach their centennial, let's pause for a moment to wax nostalgic over the Legacy Music Hour's legacy and what it's meant to the listeners.  For many of us, LMH was the first VGM podcast to hit out eardrums; over time we became so attached to Brent and Rob's weekly banter that the announcement of their "final episode" in 2013 caused a mild panic.  Scads of Users were inspired to fill the void with their own creative projects, trying to keep the LMH spirit alive with tribute blogs, multiple offshoot podcasts, and even these mixtapes themselves.  When the show triumphantly returned to the air in 2014, it was in no small part due to the help of two more Users, Gabe and Trevor, who have been an indispensable part of the team ever since.

So, as you reminisce about all these things and more over tracks from the Legacy Music Hour’s first ever live recording, think of the extraordinary dedication of the boizz -- and the incredible community that sprung up around them -- that has kept this podcast running for nearly a decade.  Boizz, Staff, and Users... we salute you.

Another beyond fourth generation focus.  Due to a power outage, Rob wasn’t able to join, so it’s just Brent and Gabe and a bit of Trevor too.  And because Rob wasn’t playing tracks on this episode, that means more tracks for Gabe, which means, instead of Gabe’s Corner, it’s the Gabe Interjection.  Full track listing below.

LMH Mixtape #87: Norio Hanzawa

Adequately describing Norio Hanzawa's complicated compositional style is a challenge.  Intricate and futuristic, sometimes frenetic, occasionally high-octane, yet always memorable, these tunes have sweeping narratives that convey much more than generalized emotions or simple environments.  Not sure what that means?  Listen to the mixtape and find out.  NOTE: In the intro to the episode, Brent refers to the composer as Kazuo Hanzawa, because at the time, the composer was known as such, but now, it has been confirmed that his name is actually Norio.

In Episode 209, the boizz talk a little bit about France, Mary Poppins, and Seinfeld’s possible copy of SimCity for the NES, but Brent really talks a lot about Creed II, that is, his own version of it.  The boizz also spent a lot of time understanding the Sonic influence in a 1989 PC Engine track (Sonic came out in 1991).  Full track listing below.

LMH Mixtape #83: Product Placement

We probably didn't notice it as much when we were kids, but there was a whole lot of product placement going on in our video games.  Whether it was comparatively subtle background nods to Pizza Hut or entire titles dedicated to playing as Ronald McDonald, encouragement to nag our parents for stuff we didn't need was everywhere... and yet there was also a lot of great music, too.  So, have it your way and munch on through these tracks all over again, but do bear in mind that the Legacy Music Hour is not responsible for any sudden cravings for Cheetos, Snickers, hamburgers, Chupa Chups, raisins, or Panasonic electronics.
