Rhythm Encounter 140 - Best Nintendo DS RPG Music

Rhythm Encounter 140 – Best Nintendo DS RPG Music

Rhythm Encounter 140 Nintendo DS RPG Music with art from Children of Mana, Apollo Justice, and Castlevania Dawn of Sorrow

It’s a handheld celebration! We had so much fun with our Game Boy Advance music episode last fall, we’re back for two more handheld episodes, starting with the Nintendo DS! Nintendo’s little experimental handheld made waves upon its announcement, and once the dust settled on many gimmicky titles, some great games made their way into our hearts. And as you’ll hear today, some great music as well, featuring the likes of Hitoshi Sakimoto, Michiru Yamane, Yasunori Mistuda, and more. Give it a listen and come back for the next one too, where we’ll be discussing PSP music!

Featuring: Mike Salbato, Michael Sollosi, Patrick Gann, Gio Castillo; Edited by Paul Dennis
