Rhythm And Pixels Video Game Music Podcast

Rob and Pernell go to town on another popular Japanese computer system, the Fujitsu FM Towns! We've got some more excellent FM synth rockers, but more importantly this show is about Quad City DJs and the Miami Sound System. Track…… Read More Episode 8-5 FM Towns

Classic Japanese computer systems? We can do that! This week your hosts go on an adventure into awesome FM synth music and a surprising amount of risque RPGs! The NEC PC-98 series of computers were also the birth-place of Touhou Project, so you know there's going to be some great shmup style tracks too! Let's do this!

We're all danced out, so it's time to hit the lounge. We focus on another musical sub-genre of sorts, the chilled-out jazzy lounge music. It gets a little funky, it gets a little "elevator", but it's all so good.

Last night a DJ saved my life with a 1-up! Our next two episodes will "club music" focused, with this episode being dance music. We're talking four-to-the-floor beats, massive sub-woofers, and all the glow-sticks you can eat! We also talk about dancing at weddings (which we love to do) and fall in love with Yuzo Koshiro all over again.

This week on the show we focus on something familiar. We want Zelda games, but don't want Zelda games, you know what I mean? These are games similar to the classic "Link To The Past" or "Link's Awakening" styles, but not featuring our iconic hero. Enjoy this week's adventure games that are not Zelda!

This week's topic is listener suggested, because "sad robots" sounds cool. Robots have such a hard time in video games. Often they're tortured, and forced to fight their family, even their own creators.

Get together a group of your closest friends, put on your bright-colored spandex suits, and IT'S SUPER SENTAI TIME! We explore the mega-pumped-up music of the classic Japanese kids show that inspired the American after-school kid's shows. Well, we actually go all over the place on this one, but all the tracks are excellent guaranteed!

How do we find such great video game tracks? Is it the luck of the draw? Is it lady-luck? I think it's Pernell's suave and sexy voice that calls out to great music like a siren song.

Rob and Pernell throw out their comfortable themed podcast format, and dive into the dangerous world of zero-theme for a second time. But this time, it's personal.

Rob and Pernell mine the depths of the Sega Saturn and come out with some solid gold hits! You'll hear some funky bass-lines, wicked drum-fills, and some on-the-spot lyrics! Rhythm and Pixels are blasting off agaaiiiiinnnn!!!!
