KVGM “The Last Wave” (7/25/21)

KVGM “The Last Wave” (7/25/21)

Do you hear that sound? Can you feel it? The cool ocean breeze in your hair, the salt on your tongue. It’s the smooth crash of the Last Wave on KVGM with your host, Hammock, bringing you thirty minutes of the best video game jams(z) from all your favorite composers and consoles, each and every week from our beachside studio in sunny Aqua City Island. Sit back, relax, and get ready to catch…the Last Wave.

This week on the show, we return to the mahjong parlor but add a sexy spin to it, we interrogate some cuties, we shoot some pool, manager an idol, play baseball, race Toyota Celicas…and we even have enough time to squeeze in a JRPG. Not to mention, a new Last Wave After Dark came out with a super smooth soundtrack – you can listen to it right here!

It was a busy week for Hammock this week. Not only was he in the studio, bringing you more smooth VGM music, but he also took a trip to the esteemed VGMbassy to hang out with Ed Wilson and listen to great music from an obscure Korean DOS platformer called Eol’s Adventure. Go check that out! But also check this out because this week’s show is no joke. Lots of Nintendo love, a love escalator(?!), love therapy, and even a special request from Arc the Lad II.

July is hot and so are these tracks but they simultaneously cool you down, which is the beauty of the video game music. This week, we’ve got J.League soccer, Urbz, bikini magic, horse registration, boxing…even a special request from a Nintendo 64 game. The YouTube mixes continue to go up so subscribe to those if you want to chill out at work. And next week, Hammock makes his debut on a very special podcast episode so keep your eyes and ears peeled!

It’s the 4th of July in the United States of America, which means, you’re probably chasing each other around the yard with Roman candles, drinking tons of alcoholic beverages, eating BBQ, and being rambunctious in the name of liberty! And when you’re not terrorizing the neighborhood pets with your street fireworks show and blasting Toby Keith with the windows down, why not chill out to some of the smoothest video game music on the planet? All in the name of freedom.
