The Legacy Music Hour Video Game Music Podcast
Summary: The Legacy Music Hour podcast was created by Brent Weinbach and Rob F. for the purpose of sharing and talking about video game music from specifically the 8-bit and 16-bit eras. No remixes, no covers, no video game inspired music -just pure, original music from the NES, SNES, Genesis, and more.

This is it, users! To celebrate the end of each LMH year, both boizz count down their top ten favorite new musical discoveries. Brent and Rob switch (haha) off their selections at each level, so you'll hear both #10s, then both #9s, and so on up to the ultimate #1s. This tradition may be a little more difficult to follow in mixtape form, but all you really need to know is that
What starts out as an episode sort of about this year’s presidential election, ends up being a Christmas episode -and a scary one at that. Full track listing below. Download and listen NOW Game - Composer - Song - Company - Console - Year (North American release unless otherwise indicated) Terra Cresta - Kenji Yoshida - Theme of Terracresta - Nihon Bussan/Vic Tokai - NES - 1990
Episode 51 was definitely ladies' night at the Legacy Music Hour. Not only was the setlist comprised entirely of tracks by women composers, but Brent's sister Laura sat in on the magic from the observation booth and added to the thematic atmosphere. Enjoy this feminine focus, then get ready to wrap up the first full year of LMH mixtapes with the upcoming Best of the Year In Review!
Well users, we made it to Mixtape 50 -- which means that the Best Of the Year In Review is just two episodes away. If you never got around to making your top 10 list back in 2011, or you think your list might be different after ingesting all these mixtapes, now's your chance! Start thinking about it while you take in Free Play 5, and maybe we'll all be comparing countdowns when we hit
Once again, Brent and Rob countdown their top tracks of the year (Episodes 170 through 180). This year, they present their favorite five (instead of ten) in order from fifth to first best. As usual, tracks selected for this episode are pieces of video game music they became aware of only within the last year and that were played on the show. Similar to last year’s countdown,
Koichi Sugiyama was a famous composer in more traditional musical circles before he got involved with Dragon Quest, a game which quickly expanded into one of the most popular video game series in Japan. Enjoy the classical sophistication that Sugiyama packs into his 8-bit and 16-bit compositions, and delight in the fact that he is still writing the music for the franchise today, with Dragon
Brent and Rob are joined once again by Dan Avidan (having appeared two episodes ago) and this time, by Arin Hanson as well, for the full Game Grumps package. Arin and Dan host the video game playthrough web series Game Grumps and start this episode off with some Mame That Chune-esque action, leaving Brent and Rob feeling a bit inadequate as video game music connoisseurs, but perhaps you,
Dear Users, do you remember your first LMH episode? KeyGlyph does. It was Episode 48! Keith Apicary and Nathan Barnatt both visited the headquarters way back when, and they each brought a list of games; from those games the boizz compiled a decidedly Sega-heavy setlist of tunes, which you can now listen to in mixtape form, several years later, as compiled by KeyGlyph. In
Episode 180 is about various things “rising” and loosely follows the story of an army of robots that rise up and attempt to take down the human race. Brent and Rob also record this episode in a studio building frequented by the likes of Beyonce, Puff Daddy, and Robin Thicke, so an LMH thanks and salute to those guys for breaking things in for the Chiki Chiki Boyz. Full track listing
It's the Taito focus! And for those of you who finish this mixtape and find yourselves craving more, you're in luck: last week Taito's house band, Zuntata, made more than 3,000+ of their songs available for streaming through Apple Music. We couldn't have planned this better if we'd tried! Download and listen NOW KEYGLYPH'S AWARDS & COMMENDATIONS, JUST BECAUSE Instant new
The Legacy Music Hour used their first RPG focus to dig up some lesser-known music in the genre, to discuss cart blowing, and to congratulate their listeners in greeting-card format. After enjoying this mixtape's isolated tunes, be sure to check out user Zeke Sharp's recreation of said LMH greeting card to congratulate yourself on whatever awesome stuff you've been up to lately.

Lots of technical difficulties on Episode 179, and a variety of them at that. Rob constantly gets disconnected, there’s a power surge, audio delays, Rob’s microphone cord breaks, Brent says “um” way more than usual. Just one tech issue after the next. So please bear with this episode and the awkward moments these issues create. On the bright side, however, Brent and Rob
Just four episodes after their Japan focus, Brent and Rob decided to highlight the distinctive style of western composers. With giants like L. Rob Hubbard, Joe McAlby, the Wise One, the Follin Brothers, and the Burnin' Furniss, you can't go wrong. Get ready to rock out -- and sometimes fly away -- with this awesome mix.

Soccer and other stuff -that's the unofficial theme of Episode 178. Rob decides to present only soccer/football related tracks while Brent keeps the options more varied. Should LMH start naming the episodes based on what the boys talk about, rather than just naming it "Free Play", since they're all pretty much free plays these days?

Episode 44 featured tracks that were funny, intentionally or otherwise. Weird vocals, flatulence, dinosaurs, frogs, burps, and inappropriately Baroque compositions abound in this very strange mix!
