Rhythm Encounter 101 - Recent RPG Music 101

Rhythm Encounter 101 – Recent RPG Music 101

We interrupt your regularly scheduled Rhythm broadcast to bring you some exciting new music that is worth listening to with some urgency! While the transportation episode is making its journey here and the Xeno episode is leveling up to handle its high-level composers effectively, we decided to bring a selection of music that’s come out over the past year, with an emphasis on more recent releases in the last few months. We’re covering a wide range of game types/series, and more than one series may be making its Rhythm debut. I’ll stop trying to make WRPG Radio happen, though…as important as public radio is and however tempting the semi-ironic station name is for a site that primarily covers JRPGs. Please enjoy!

Featuring: Mike Salbato, Hilary Andreff; Edited by Jono Logan
