Episode 66: PAPRIUM with Composer Jredd and Special Guest Mike Levy The VGMbassy

We’re back with a super special episode, in more ways than one!  Not only has The VGMbassy returned after a multi-month hiatus, but it also features the reunion of PixelTunes Radio cohosts Ed and Mike Levy (XVGM Radio, Dude You Haven’t Played This Game?!) The duo just received their copies of brand new Genesis beat ’em up PAPRIUM, and they’re honored to have returning guest and VGMbassy theme composer Trevin Hughes (aka Jredd) on the show to share some of the music that he and Groovemaster303 wrote for it. The game features a custom chipset that allows for a greatly expanded selection of sound channels, so you’ll be hearing some incredible music that’s unlike anything you’ve heard from a 16-bit console. We’ve been planning this show for years, and we’re so happy to finally be able to release it. Enjoy!





A huge thank you to Indira J (The Misadventures of Buddy and Friend, Sacrimony) for the amazing VGMbassy artwork and design, and to Trevin Hughes (aka chiptune composer Jredd) for the podcast theme song!
