KVGM “The Last Wave” (5/9/21)

KVGM “The Last Wave” (5/9/21)

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.

If we’ve learned anything from horse racing simulators, it’s that they know how to jam out, especially when that simulator is simulated on a Super Famicom. Plus Yasuhiro Kawakami is back bringin’ that buddy cop funk, the PC-Engine CD is here, women’s soccer on the Nintendo DS, even Mario Kart makes an appearance (shout out to my guy, Shy Guy!). Plus much much more!

Smooth jams, smooth jams, smooth jams. Need I say more? I mean, I could…I could go on and on about Shinji Hosoe bringin’ the chill, or Manabu Namiki bringin’ the beats, or Marshall Parker bringin’ the funk. But you already know all this…so I’ll let the music speak for itself.

It’s Easter Sunday, which can only mean one thing: more smooth jams coated in a milk chocolate shell. Praise such jams as “Misty” and “Parts Shop”, and glory be to Katsuhiro Hayashi and Yoko Kanno, jam masters among us. Worship at the church of Falcom Sound Team J.D.K. – and we all know what the J.D.K. stands for. And remember, if you donate to the Patreon, you will be blessed with even more of the smootheth video game music. Amen.

The energy level is pretty high this week, and that’s okay…it’s always nice to have a pick me up to kick off your week. Pocket monsters, dragon balls, soccer balls, world’s greatest thieves…these are automatic pick me ups. Throw in a banger by Jake Kaufman and a little romance from a PC visual novel, and the stage is set for another Last Wave. Thanks for listening!
