Get to experience what I missed out on, minus the feeling of putting in the cartridge lol.

You know, this is just so friggin nice. If I went to a massage parlour and asked for a "good ending", and they did anything other than play these tunes, I'd be asking for a refund.

[@bobloblaw3415]

I've listened to this set so many times now. Let me join in the chorus of thank yous. Unlike most mixes of relaxing game music on YT this one isn't just a big boring compilation of tracks from RPGs and popular games. That you are a musician and have discerning taste and wanted to present us with a variety of styles and compositions rings clearly through, does not go unnoticed, and is highly appreciated! The jazzy and samba numbers from the golf and pool games kill me. The gorgeous, rich harmonies of the Landstalker ballad. The slinky Super Hydlide. The groove of Flashback 11. So much good stuff. BGM4 on the first golf game on a 30 some-year-old console is so fucking good I'm super jealous I didn't write it.

[@fedupN]

As others have pointed out, it's great that this list is so eclectic. Ranges far afield and doesn't just rely on the big named songs that get so heavily recycled. Don't get me wrong, I love some Final Fantasy, Chrono Trigger, and other RPGs but hearing this new (to me) stuff is amazing. Thanks for sharing it!

[@RandomInnVGMs]

When I started making calm, relaxing Sega Genesis music compilations, internet was a diffenret place for sure. I was shocked to see many SNES compilations of mellow music but none of SEGA Genesis/MD. That's why I started my YT channel. Glad to see that things have changed and downbeat, relaxing soundtracks are being recognized by the masses. :) Thank you for your great work, Dustin! _PostScriptum - check description, there might be an error._

[@wesgeorge4112]

Unlike SNES, Genesis is not known generally for good "chill" tunes. I'm surprised to find this wonderful compilation. Well done and thank you.

[@SirBopALot]

Thank you so very much for this. This makes me feel like a kid again! Always loved the SEGA Genesis growing up, and this is just a beautiful nostalgia bomb in the form of music, and I love it! I’ll openly admit, I haven’t actually played a majority of these games as a kid, but know more about most of them as an adult. Still, nostalgia aside, I always loved the Genesis for it’s sound capabilities, and this compilation is an awesome showcase of that. I play this whenever I want something peaceful, and I fall asleep to this occasionally. It’s so beautiful! I especially respect the Genesis more and more as an adult, because it was able to do things the SNES couldn’t do. The Sinking Old Sanctuary is probably one of my favorite Genesis tracks. It’s atmospheric, even for Genesis standards. The Streets of Rage ending theme speaks for itself, as we all know too well, and that’s because Yuzo Koshiro is a musical genius. Never played Mickey Mania as a kid, but I have looked it up a few times, and I’m constantly blown away by how fluid the animation for that game really is. Every frame of animation has outstanding timing, and the attention to detail is precious, and definitely well done, and still manages to look awesome, even today. The soundtrack is really well done, as well. While none of the tracks from this particular game are on here, I have to point out Garfield: Caught in the Act, which is another game I’ve unfortunately never played, but have done plenty of research on. For example, Jim Davis and PAWS, Inc. were directly involved with the game, and it definitely shows, especially in the animation, much like Mickey Mania. Both of those games have exceptionally well done animation, and look great. I used to play Comix Zone as a kid, but never could beat it. It’s actually amazing that game turned out the way it did, even in 1995. The exact same year, we got an obscure Genesis game made by the exact same team, SEGA Technical Institute, called The Ooze, which is something that never really hit mainstream popularity, but has it’s own fandom, as well as it’s own speedrunning community. Anyway, your music choices are definitely fantastic, especially speaking as someone who has grown to appreciate the Genesis for it’s sound chip more and more over the years. This was fantastic!
