VARIOUS ARTISTS – NINTENDO ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM, 1985-1992
This, I believe, one of the very last things I had not yet re-posted from my old site (Post-Punk Junk): two CDs worth of original 8-bit NES music. With bands like Crystal Castles now very much in the forefront of hyped electronic music, I think it’s cool to hear the sounds that they heard from their childhood (and mine and probably yours as well).
Just a few of the games whose music is included here are: Blaster Master, The Legend Of Zelda, Rygar, R.C. Pro Am, Excitebike, Kid Icarus, Faxanadu, Metal Gear, Castlevania, Metriod, Clu Clu Land, Double Dragon, Ducktales, and of course, Super Mario Bros. —

for those who haven’t heard them, I highly recommend The Advantage, a band who performs excellent covers of NES game music. Their 2 cd’s are well worth a listen!
