  • Legend of Zelda Dungeon Medley

    Legend of Zelda Dungeon Medley

    I think one could make an incredibly compelling case that the collective music from all of the Legend of Zelda games could perhaps be most iconic and memorable of any franchise in video game history.  After all, the Legend of Zelda Symphony of the Goddesses show that travels the world sells out many of its…

  • Super Mario Bros Theme Slowed Down is Beautiful and Depressing

    Super Mario Bros Theme Slowed Down is Beautiful and Depressing

    One could argue that the most recognizable and widely loved video game music is the Super Mario Bros theme from the classic NES game.  I know I find myself humming it on occasion and anytime I hear it I want to break out my tablet and controller and play some classic Super Mario Bros.  But…

    NES Classic DuckTales Moon Theme Played on NES Piano

    One of my all time favorite games is DuckTales on the NES.  The new DuckTales Remastered game that is available on pretty much every platform (I have it on Steam) is just as good since its the same game with a modern coat of paint so even if you don’t have an old NES lying…
