Episode 79: Five Finger Fanfare, Part 2

We are back again, and this time we're returning to a classic show theme for another Part 2, this one focusing on the Five-Finger Fanfare (a term coined by the Super Marcato Bros. on their excellent and seminal VGM podcast). This is a term used to describe a run of 5 notes that line up with the first 5 notes of the minor scale - a technique used frequently in video game music. Will you be able to hear the Five-Finger Fanfares in each piece of Very Good Music the hosts brought to this episode? Only one way to find out!</p> <br /></p> As always, we appreciate our amazing patrons who supported us for so long, as well as the artists who made our show art and theme song.

Episode 72-1: Bedroth's MoVGM Honorable Mentions

In June of 2022 (and stretching into July), over a dozen VGM podcasts came together to honor our favorite composers in what came to be called Masers of VGM. </p> Part 2 was originally intended to be a one-episode listener recap. Instead, it evolved into three parts of its own! In this episode, the first of the three, Prof Jeff joins the party to help discuss Bedroth's honorable mentions for the event - composers who didn't quite make his Mount Rushmore, but still deserve recognition for their Very Good Music.</p> Join us for Part 2-2 tomorrow for the listener showcase event, featuring additional commentary by ProfJeff and a cameo from the wonderful keyglyph of The VGM Jukebox and Sound Test Roulette podcasts!</p> Thanks as always to our amazing artists who made our show art and theme song.
