Competition is kind of the theme of Episode 240 -not just in sports but also on the streets and other things.  But also, guess what though?  More Pac-Man talk on this episode!  And more controversial theories about the Pac-Man universe.  Speaking of controversies, the boys also touch on the scam going on with retro video game prices these days.  Full track listing

Following up on their launch games focus, Brent and Rob took another suggestion from user Ryan and curated a selection of "twilight" games: games that were published during their console's final year (or years) of active title releases.  Taken together, these two mixtapes form an engaging and symmetrical retrospective on composition and hardware -- like bookends, made of chiptune.Download

This episode is Olympics themed, especially on Rob’s end of track selections.  Different years also come up a bit, years like 1996 and 1943 and so forth.  Should arm wrestling be an event at the Olympics? Should Rob become a full time psychic?  These questions and more might just be answered on the Legacy Music Hour.  Full track listing below.Download and listen NOWGame -

For Episode 128, the boizz followed a suggestion from user Ryan and took a sampling of the tunes from games that launched the same year their console debuted.  Not only was this a fascinating snapshot of how the composers handled each piece of new hardware, but along the way, Rob F. Switch also coined that very particular pronunciation of "boy" that we can no longer live without.Download and

Even though only one track from a Mighty Morphin Power Rangers game is played on this episode, the overall running theme ends up being Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.  Rob does an all-golf-game-music focus and so, golf becomes the secondary theme of the episode.  Brent also gets kind sleepy on this episode for a change (because, you know, usually Rob gets sleepy).  Full track listing

Here we are with another fifth generation and above focus with a bunch of really great tracks.  Rob dances a lot in this episode, and Brent does not.  He just likes to watch.  But they both talk about dancing a good share and other topics such as adults (and content made for adults) and the length of things in inches, as well as things being unraveled.  Rob also falls asleep.&

Emily joins Brent, Rob, and Gabe on this episode and they happen to record on April 1, so a good bit of April fooling takes place.  Rob creates a new character named DJ Baby T-Rex, a radio disc jockey who had a thriving on-air career but eventually moves on to other things.  It’s kind of a saga actually.  A legendary saga.  And Brent beatboxes at one point, by the way.

The boys talk a bit about Robert De Niro and De Niro related things on Episode 234 and they even do some impressions of him.  Yet again, another Genesis versus Super Nintendo discussion/debate takes place at one point with regards to a specific track, so feel free to weigh in on that in the comments.  Full track listing below.Download and listen NOWGame - Composer - Track - Company -

Rob and Brent usually establish a physical signal for each episode when recording so that Brent knows when Rob is good to move on from a track, but for some reason, Brent wasn’t seeing Rob’s signals during this episode.  Regardless, there’s some great tracks here.  At the end, they boizz share a phone message from Shinobi MC, a sort of spoken word-type piece, so stay tuned for that.&
