This week your hosts listen to music from sky and air themed stages. These are parts of games that are not entirely about the sky, but these sections are in the clouds. Pernell tries to get his head around the realities of Little Nemo, and Rob channels his inner 90s RnB singer in what might be his favorite track of the year.

Are you lost? Not sure where the next is? Let Pernell, THE HUMAN GPS, help you to your next destination! World map, overworld map, all the maps, it's map music. We find that our picks compliment each other in their happiness, friendliness, and then darkness. These maps get dark yo.
Episode 5-4 Mega Man Battle Network
Let's keep the Mega Man love going, let's listen to the music from the GBA series Mega Man Battle Network. Pernell finds his inner Mega Man, and Rob talks about a snare drum for too long. This series is a treasure-trove of excellent music, and it makes this episode a must-listen.

Rob and Pernell set aside their friendship and call each other out. It's time to throw-down! Gutsman I choose you! This week we pit Mega Man Robot Master against Robot Master in a battle to the awesome!
Episode 5-2 Victory Music
You did it! This is your time, this is all for you. This is your video game music victory. We listen to great music composed for celebratory sections of games. Not necessarily RPGs, but any game where you have become victorious. We're joined this week again by our good friend Matt Waldron of Pernell and Matt Play Games! He brings some great tunes, and some great discussion. He's a great guy! Check our his show on Youtube!
Episode 5-1 Board Game Games
Roll some dice, flip some cards, and ruin your relationships! That's what board games is all about. This week we focus on board games in video game form. They could be video game versions of existing board games, or video games designed as board games. Pernell gets nostalgic with some Top Shop action, and Rob picks all Japanese Super Famicom tracks. They both can't stop dancing to the Mega Ran track at the end. Enjoy!
Episode 4-10 Wildcard
Rob and Pernell choose great video game music RNG style this week, but not really. This week it’s all about picking those tracks that just haven’t fit in other topics. These are the tracks they’ve been sitting on, waiting for them to hatch into the perfect podcast. This is that podcast! Also there’s a huge tangent about Back To The Future 2 for some reason, so look out for that 🙂
Episode 4-9 Chill Music
This week Rob and Pernell pick tracks that would be great for your yoga class, spa weekend, or after-work decompression. We're looking at anything that's relaxing, atmospheric, and ambient. Please listen responsibly.
Episode 4-8 Tim Follin
Marvel games, super-80s colors, and adaptations of R-rated movies. That's right, this week we're listening to the sounds of composer Tim Follin!
Episode 4-7 Mechanical Stages
Gears, robots, machinery! (machina yah?) It's machine music for mechanical stages in video games! There's singing! Dancing! Rob mentions Turbo Teen! Pernell pitches the Back To The Future reboot with Yuzo Koshiro instead of Chuck Berry! It's a good time.
