KVGM “The Last Wave” (1/30/22)

KVGM “The Last Wave” (1/30/22)

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 hasn’t been a great week for old Hammock but we’ve got some sweet jams to distract, including aquarium simulation, Gundam chill, viznovz, and dating in style.
