Rhythm Encounter 158 – Winter 2025: Pirates, Urban Myths, Magnolias, and More

Rhythm Encounter 158 - art from Flint, Earthblade, Citizen Sleeper 2, Urban Myth Dissolution Center, Ender Magnolia, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth

Continuing our new run of quarterly new music updates is our first episode for 2025, and it’s a truly notable start. We have a range of new music today, from well composed soundtracks that play homage to earlier console generations to new projects from popular Minecraft composer C418. We also continue to take our definition of music from a certain timeframe liberally and even have music for a game that doesn’t exist (anymore). May these episodes help you learn more about new game music releases, and we’ll be ready for more next quarter!

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