LMH Mixtape #119: Movies 2

For Episode 119, the boizz (and special guest Jonah Ray) put their drums on another line-up of tunes from movie tie-in games. In addition to bringing us some excellent jams, this installment of the Legacy Music Hour was also the origin of the now-infamous Lethal Weapon reference, "I'm gettin' too old for this shhhhhh."  Can you even listen through the tune without hearing that phrase in it anymore?  Yeah.  Didn't think so.

LMH Mixtape #118: Power Pad Games

Get ready to play with power -- body power (seriously, that's what the commercials called it) -- because we've finally sprinted our way up to the Power Pad focus!  The sweet, quirky, and experimental early-NES vibe of these tunes might not come together into the greatest workout mix of all time, but they'll definitely put a smile on your face.  And hey, maybe they'll even inspire you to grab a Power Pad off eBay (about $50 in the States at the time of this writing, FYI) to help keep you in shape while we're all stuck inside.  Stay safe, everybody!

Episode 227: Youthful Hair

This episode seems to focus a lot on hair.  Brent hasn’t had a haircut since February or March, and because of his longer hair, Rob thinks he looks young, but it’s really because of the lighting, mister.  Gabe’s hair is long too.  Rob and Brent talk a little bit about some past memories, and they also sing the Perfect Strangers theme song at one point as well as Come Undone by Duran Duran.  Enjoy the show, mister!  Full track listing below.

LMH Mixtape #117: 1990

In Episode 117, the boizz were joined by friends and Gamedians Jerry Rocha and Andrew DeWitt for a focus on titles released in the year 1990.  This led directly to the discovery of 1990's greatest musical achievement ("Staff Roll" from Bloody Wolf), which in turn led directly to the greatest musical achievement of 2013 (Andrew DeWitt's ad-libbed lyrics to "Staff Roll").  This episode is legendary.  Relive it in mixtape form and party it up tonight.
