Jeremy: Greetings, patrons, and welcome to your semi-annual Wow That's A Lot Of Music episode. As usual for Retronauts Radio, this file is much larger than usual in order to preserve the stereo soundstage and convey the original quality of the audio rips here as much as possible without excessive compression. And, as usual, this episode features lots of short excerpts of music but certainly not enough to replace or substitute for the actual albums being discussed here. Please support niche music labels and video game artists!

This episode primarily consists of new vinyl releases, many from Ship to Shore Phono, who have begun making an effort to distribute their releases in non-vinyl formats. (In fact, I believe Gimmick! is currently only available on tape.) I did toss a few older titles in here as well, though. For variety.

I'll let the music speak for itself. Well, and my recorded podcast voice self. He does a lot of speaking here.

Cover art by John Pading, and edits/musical insertions by me (gotta give the usual editors a bit of a break when it comes to a beast of a production like this, you know?). Featured albums:

Gimmick!

Phantasy Star III

Suikoden

Breath of Fire III

Persona (25th Anniversary)

Virtua Fighter

Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster

Dragon Slayer IV

Sega Forever

Retronauts Radio has become one of my favorite formats. Thanks for bringing us this great music and commentary, Jeremy.

“Secondhand smoke” has too many negative connotations; I think hearing music you like from afar should be referred to as a “contact high.” 😎

Great selection. The Breath of Fire III soundtrack is timeless.

Another fantastic episode, Jeremy! Always look forward to these every so often 🎶🌞

My portuguese is a little rusty, but pretty sure "Antes Lance Mao" roughly means "before we throw(launch) hands." The "ao" in "Mao" makes a kind of an "ong" sound. Not sure what "Adertunerio" means.

Sorry to hear about you uprooting and moving all your things. I know that's hard. I really liked the city pop stuff. I didn't realize there was a name for all that 70s soft pop stuff, but of course there is. Was just listening to a "this month on the billboard charts 50 years ago" playlist and there was quite a bit of that kind of style. Great segment to go out on. Does the move have something to do with you not being on the regular podcasts? I miss hearing you in conversation.

This version of "Dancing Mad" sounds amazing and fucking rocks.

I always love these episodes! After thinking on it, I reckon I have a slight preference for the previous format where you play each clip one at a time, because I really dig the analysis of the tracks. With this format, I find I’ve forgotten what tunes I’m listening to and what you’ve said about each one by the time it rolls around. But I know others who are here more to vibe to the music than to get the analysis might have a different preference. Curious what others think!

How’s the GBA Castlevania LP releases sounding? I’m leery of pulling the trigger due to the GBA source material. Anyone know if they improved the sound?
