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.

HEAR SOMETHING WILL YA !!

Winter is coming

Wanna know a real good multiplayer racing game back from the N64 days? The Snowboard Kids games. Not that fuckugly reboot they did on the DS, that doesn't count. I'm talking about the classics, doing flips and grabs and shooting giant hands of coin stealing death at one another.

But what about the music? Well, the music SLAYS. I was playing Snowboard Kids 2 again recently and probably the most standout track to me was the first course's, Sunny Mountain. Its just so much fun, and has this element of catchiness that just isn't in video games anymore. And I don't mean 'oh hey that's kinda catchy' NO I FUCKING MEAN YOU'LL BE SINGING ALONG BY THE END OF THE MATCH. ON EVERY COURSE.

  1. Haha, not much more I can say other than simply awesome. Your writing style, I mean!

    On another note: I had my volume at full blast when I played this song. I now hate you. I hope you're happy.
