Strangely, the traffic to this site hasn’t dipped since it’s gone inactive, and the download count on every item on the front page have kept rising. Sweet – well, keep coming, because things are looking up here on my end. For now, a song I really like lately that isn’t from a game:
I’ve had no exposure to anything with the name “SSX” attached, or to Junkie XL, though a friend indicated he’d heard of Junkie XL in non-VGM circles (as you might say, “IRL”) as a talented musician. I certainly enjoy it. It’s solid funk, hip hoppy electronica, the kind that sounds like it’s coming out of a street boom box, with some light samplings. It’s not at Hideki Naganuma level, but that’s just fine—not everyone is supposed to get all hyper with the Record button. This is a new name for me to research.
