Welcome to my Retro Game Music blog. As an avid game geek and music nerd, I decided to start a very simple blog about what I'm passionate about: Classic video game tunes. Put on some headphones and relax.

shitty shmups

Earth Defense Force had good music. No, not THAT Earth Defense Force, I mean Super Earth Defense Force on the SNES! It was a Gradius-esque SHMUP where I guess you fly a plane and shoot aliens or something. I don't know, it wasn't a very good game. BUT THE MUSIC WAS GOOD! Here's the song from the first level, its pretty fitting for the setting of flying high above the clouds speeding past you in the background. And foreground. Anyway, its a pretty slick tune so have at it.

  1. One of my favorite SNES shmups! But I guess there weren't a whole lot of good ones to choose from. Everything either had crazy slowdown or was so damn boring that there wasn't enough action going on to give it slowdown (Darius Twin).

  4. Sounds reminiscent of U.N. Squadron which was awesome in its own right.
