Episode #380 of BGMania: A Video Game Music Podcast. Today on the show, Bryan and Bedroth go beat-for-beat through a curated lineup of killer music from across the rhythm game spectrum—from lo-fi grooves and hypnotic trance to absolute chaos and comedic gold.
We’re highlighting tracks from genre staples like Amplitude, Parappa the Rapper, Thumper, and Crypt of the NecroDancer, while also diving into lesser-known but equally brilliant titles like Zubo, Melatonin, Tadpole Treble, and Mad Rat Dead. Whether you're a longtime rhythm game junkie or a casual toe-tapper, this episode has something for every kind of beat-matcher. Turn up the volume, find your groove, and get ready to vibe.
