  1. This is intended as something for people to discover and enjoy retro video game music. You will hear/see one of three things on this channel right now.
  2.  
  3. 1. Super Metroid any% or other speedruns and gaming streams as per usual, of course! I will restart the stream before doing SM runs so as to notify people.
  4.  
  5. VGM stream
  6. 2. Keyboard view - meant to educate all of us on how this music was written, from both a technical and compositional viewpoint ( hoot sound hardware emulator, homepage @ http://dmpsoft.s17.xrea.com/hoot/ or check http://snesmusic.org/hoot/v2/ )
  7. 3. Hardware rip from the original console - meant to showcase exactly what the audio was supposed to sound like, from the source. If you see what looks like a sound test, you are listening to the actual system/cart. There is a caveat, in that some soundtracks are played on the original system using data roms containing the song data, when a sound test is not available. (exception: policenauts soundtest is from an emulator)
  8.  
  9. The audio will always be recorded as flac until final broadcast (when I'm streaming to Music)
  10.  
  11. I'm open to any suggestions, thanks!
  12.  
  13. Some more useful links to finding this music (you will need a viable audio player or plugin(s) to play these files) :
  14. SNES Music (.spc) - snesmusic.org
  15. Genesis Music (.vgm) - project2612.org
  16. NES music - search google for ".nsf", which is the NES music file format

  18. Q: WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS???
  19. A:
  20. - I've always wanted to get hoot decked out with as much VGM as possible, but seeing as how it's a Japanese program and most of the resources are in Japanese, it's quite arduous. This project gives me a reason to put it all together and I've received some massive help in this department due to starting it.
  21. - I've always wanted nice recordings from the actual hardware, especially for certain systems, like genesis, who's sound chip has more character sometimes than is captured by emulation, I feel.
  22. - Some soundtracks, like raging fighter for game boy, weren't available to me for easy listening, so I didn't listen to them much. This solves that issue.
