KVGM “The Last Wave” (1/3/21)

KVGM “The Last Wave” (1/3/21)

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.

The future is now. 2021. Welcome and good riddance last year. In addition to a plethora of smooth jams, including the obligatory Akira Sato track, not one but TWO SNES jams, and a Team X-Fade production, the Last Wave is now on Patreon. That’s right, your dreams have come true. There’s only one tier but it’s cheap (and lucky) and gets you access to an exclusive show, “The Last Wave” After Dark. This monthly EXCLUSIVE show will feature deep dives into soundtracks, bring in special guests to talk about their favorite soundtracks, themed episodes, anything and everything is possible…but you need to subscribe to find out! Check it out! (patreon.com/kvgmradio)

What’s it like to fly for fun? I don’t know – ask a bird! But seriously, we venture from 18 holes to the ultimate sandtrap of the Sahara desert, pondering what high school would be like in a world full of monsters, and the emotions you get from High Scores and Staff Rolls. And of course, the Last Wave wouldn’t be complete without at least ONE naughty game soundtrack. Bonus content: we reveal Hammock’s dad’s top three video games of ALL TIME. Check it out.
