LMH Mixtape #180: Rise

The robots are rising up!  The only way to fight back is with a killer mixtape, and The Legacy Music Hour has your back.  Check out the awesome stereo effects of Quarth, the cool sliding bass on Gradius II and the beautiful strings on Daibakushou: Jinsei Gekijou, just to name a few moments.  Afterwards, the robots will have no choice but to peacefully pack up and go home.  Goodbye robots!

LMH Mixtape #179: Technical Difficulties

All the way back at Mixtape #48 (Keith Apicary and Nathan Barnatt), KeyGlyph asked if you remember your first LMH episode, as that episode was KeyGlyph’s first.  For me (TheManaTree), Episode 179 was it.  LMH and the Game Grumps did some crossover appearances, and Dan Avidan from the Game Grumps was a guest on this particular episode.  Even though they had some technical difficulties, the music was still top notch, as you'll see with this mixtape.

Most singable track:  Pachiokun Puzzle Castle - Game Over
Beautifully orchestrated:  Classic Road II: Real Kouma Simulation - Office Work

LMH Mixtape #178: Free Play 30

For this episode, Rob based his picks on all the "soccer (football) action" going on at the time.  Brent went with the traditional free play style.  Either way you get a lot of fantastic tunes, maybe even some possible top ten material.

Great melody: Akagawa Jirou no Yuurei Ressha - Yuuko, the Schoolgirl
