Episode 17 – Master System Showcase

Forever Sound Version

For this episode I’m joined by a new addition to the Forever Sound Version guest roster – Rob Hunter! Rob’s first console was the Sega Master System and he knows one heck of a lot about its games, so getting him on board for a show exploring SMS soundtracks was a no-brainer. We’ve got cheerful ditties, spooky sketches, and moody masterpieces, all pumping out of the Texas Instruments SN76489: the little sound chip that could!
