KVGM “The Last Wave” (1/24/21)

KVGM “The Last Wave” (1/24/21)

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 sun is shining down on this week’s show because…well, a lot of things but because we’ve got MUSE in the house bringing the emotions, bongos, racing, volleyball, soccer…even computer hacking simulation. And of course, we keep delivering the special requests. And if you’re a member of the Patreon, the inaugural “The Last Wave” After Dark hit last Friday…so I hope you like remakes…and the number 7…and jukeboxes. And more importantly, smooth jams.

A pretty standard show this week (and by standard, I mean extra smooth as usual). AOL murder mysteries, 102 ways to murder God, the Legend of Zelda in four colors, and BASEBALL! Come celebrate with us, and be sure to check out Rhythm & Pixels this week as I join Rob and Pernell to talk about video game music that sounds like buddy cop movies. You know what I’m talking about. Some real fine cheese for sure.

This week,  Yu-Gi-Oh! is back in a big way, sudoku is back in an even bigger way, and we cover not one, not two, not three, but FIVE Nintendo consoles. And we prove that sometimes unused songs are not unused in our hearts. To everyone who became a member of Patreon, thank you so so so much for your support of the show! And to anyone who is on the fence? Well…that’s okay. The fence gives you a good vantage point.

Let’s bring this dumpster fire of a year to a close with a hot selection of some of the very smoothest video game music in existence. We hit the Paradise Killer soundtrack not once…but twice. We also explore the relationship between three-eyed demon girls and log cabins, use the power of our voice to explore dozens of recipes, play a little mahjong on the go, even a little Yu-Gi-Oh! Thanks for making 2020 as bearable as possible by continuing to support the show. And stayed tuned next month as the Last Wave is about to bring something extra to those who want it…

On this week’s show, MANYO continues to be the man, yo. Yusuke Beppu and Manabu Namiki return in style, things get sexy on the tennis court, toy cars for cool tots, even a very Lifetime Original ending track from a medical simulator. Plus another request…it’s a good time to subscribe to the Last Wave, if you haven’t by now…which you probably have because…well, just because.

What could get more Last Wave-y than jet skis and Akira Sato? Throw in a couple murder mysteries, a visual novel about naked mermaid girls, and a whacky GBC track…and you got the perfect recipe for jam(s). The request line is still ringing off the hook but keep them coming and we’ll keep playing them on the show. Also, look for a special announcement in the new year…2021. The future.

Enter December, the temperature’s dropping (unless you’re on Aqua City Island, where the temperature doesn’t budge), and things aren’t exactly the way you may have anticipated a year ago…but you know what? Jams. Jams will keep things warm, bring the optimism, the encouragement needed to sustain the winter…and of course, what better way to jam out then with mahjong and baseball and billiards…and yes, dirty dirty visual novels.

Happy belated Thanksgiving, to you and your family! And if you don’t celebrate Thanksgiving, you can still enjoy these jams courtesy of the Last Wave. It’s like an all-you-can-listen buffet of smooth video game music, featuring favorite consoles like the Nintendo 64 and Amiga, a lesser favorites like the GameCube and Sega CD, as well as golf, Sonic the Hedgehog, and colorful logic. Because who doesn’t think in color?

This week, mahjong isn’t the only cool parlor game in town, as go makes its grand entrance via the Nintendo GameCube. We also do a bit of skydiving (EXTREME!), city management, and dungeon crafting. And of course, the Last Wave wouldn’t be the Last Wave without some visual novel sleaze.
