  • Album: Dandara Artist(s): Thommaz Kauffmann (@thommaz) Label: Mana Wave Media (@manawavemedia), 2021 Game(s): Dandara Artwork: Luísa Almeida (@luisa4lmeida) Soundtrack to Brazilian indie metroidvania Dandara. I haven't played the game and even without that context this soundtrack creates an atmosphere of something that's both beautiful and tense. It absolutely stands on its own as a great listen even without the game (which I hear is really good as well, it's just a genre that I suck at). It comes in a thick tip-on gatefold jacket with absolutely amazing artwork. It was a pressing of just 500 copies across all three colorways and I think it's largely sold out now, however, second-hand prices doesn't seem to have gone through the roof (yet anyway). It's a great and underrated release that more people should check out. #vgmvinyl #videogamevinyl #instavinyl #vinyl #vinylcollector #vinylcollection #records #vinylrecords #vinyljunkie #recordcollector #vinyligclub #dandara #thommazkauffmann #manawavemedia #luísaalmeida
  • Album: Ghost In The Shell Megatech Body.Vinyl.Ltd Artist(s): Takkyu Ishino (@takkyuishino), Scan X (@scanxmusic), Brother From Another Planet, The Advent, Dave Angel (@djdaveangel), Mijk Van Dijk (@mijk_van_dijk), Westbam (@westbam_ml), BCJ, Derrick May (@derrickmay), Joey Beltram (@joeybeltram) Label: Sony, 1997 Game(s): Ghost In The Shell Illustration: Takashi Murakami, Hideki Koshino Design: Steretype Produkts What better reason to post this massive banger than it finally getting a well-deserved reissue from @umaainc later this year? This feels like a very 90s kinda thing - but in the best possible way. All tracks are from different techno artists, but - like with the wipEout compilations - it just works. There's not a bad track on this album. Sure it's definitely music from a different time, but it still holds up! The 2LP here is just about half of the full soundtrack, which is still only on CD, but it is certainly a strong selection of music nonetheless. A picture disc LP was also released back in 1997 and a similar-ish reissue of that one (with a slightly altered track list) is also coming alongside the new reissue for this. #vgmvinyl #videogamevinyl #instavinyl #vinyl #vinylcollector #vinylcollection #records #vinylrecords #vinyljunkie #recordcollector #vinyligclub #ghostintheshell #ghostintheshellps1 #megatechbody
  • Album: Drift Stage (Keizai) Artist(s): Myrone (@myroneofficial) Label: Ghost Ramp (@ghostramp), 2016 Game(s): Drift Stage What to do when you've put out a car-shaped picture disc record? You put out another! And sadly that was the last of it. I still imagine the garage-themed box set that could've been had they kept doing these. Like the first Drift Stage record the tracks from Myrone on this one are both great as well. It's a shame that the game never really delivered, but at least the killer music we got for it almost makes up for that. #vgmvinyl #videogamevinyl #instavinyl #vinyl #vinylcollector #vinylcollection #records #vinylrecords #vinyljunkie #recordcollector #vinyligclub #hughmyrone #driftstage #ghostramp
  • Album: Crawlco Block Knockers (Original Game Soundtrack) Artist(s): Opus Science Collective (@opusscience) Label: Ship To Shore PhonoCo. (@stsphonoco), 2021 Game(s): Crawlco Block Knockers Artwork: Mike Luckas (@stupiddeadskullhead) A game heavily inspired by sleazy Japanese puzzle games of the 80s and 90s that will gradually reveal pictures of scantily clad women as you progress. Not your thing? Please don't let that deter you from checking out it's groovy synth-funk soundtrack. Very much in the game's spirit it comes in a die-cut jacket that will show off bits of the insert within and - quite literally - block the knockers, which are very much present on the insert itself (not shown here). And it's not like the back cover is subtle about what the game is about either. Regardless of whether you're into the naughty nature of the game and the artwork on this release, the soundtrack itself is a banger that shouldn't be slept on. While Ship To Shore may not be around anymore I do believe it's still relatively easy to track down a copy of this. #vgmvinyl #videogamevinyl #instavinyl #vinyl #vinylcollector #vinylcollection #records #vinylrecords #vinyljunkie #recordcollector #vinyligclub #crawlcoblockknockers #opussciencecollective #shiptoshorephonoco #mikeluckas
  • Album: Cult Of The Lamb Original Soundtrack Artist(s): River Boy (@riverboybeats) Label: Laced Records (@laced_audio) / Devolver Digital (@devolverdigital), 2023 Game(s): Cult Of The Lamb (@cultofthelambofficial) Artwork: Carles Dalmau (@carles_dalmau) Didn't really know what to expect when I put this on the first time as I hadn't played the game, but it sure wasn't these chill beats to sacrifice cuddly villagers to. Needless to say I'm all up for that. It's a really good and interesting soundtrack that I've put on quite a lot since getting it and it works perfectly even when you haven't played the game. The artwork from the game's artist Carles Dalmau is top notch with its lovely outer and grim inner artwork! And of course the red and black splatter discs too came out great. It's a lovely package all around, but it's unfortunately sold out right now. It's been restocked a few times already, though, so hopefully it'll be available again before long. #vgmvinyl #videogamevinyl #instavinyl #vinyl #vinylcollector #vinylcollection #records #vinylrecords #vinyljunkie #recordcollector #vinyligclub #cultofthelamb #lacedrecords #devolverdigital #riverboy
  • Album: Deltarune Chapter 1 Soundtrack Artist(s): Toby Fox Label: Fangamer (@fangamercom), 2019 Game(s): Deltarune Chapter 1 Artwork: ADE / あで A game set in an alternate and/or connected world to Undertale, the first chapter of Deltarune dropped a bit out of nowhere in late 2018. Like with Undertale the game'sc creator Toby Fox did the vast majority of music for Deltarune. The chiptune style is somewhat similar, so if you like one you'd probably like the other too. Visually the release is a treat with great new artwork by ADE on both the jacket and printed inners. As a neat little bonus it also comes with a set of holographic stickers of in-game characters, art and symbols. Pressing is nice too, and thankfully Fangamer have been doing a good job of keeping this one in circulation. #vgmvinyl #videogamevinyl #instavinyl #vinyl #vinylcollector #vinylcollection #records #vinylrecords #vinyljunkie #recordcollector #vinyligclub #tobyfox #deltarune #fangamer #ade_ri_00b
  • Album: SNK Game Music Artist(s): SNK Electronics Sound Team Label: G.M.O. Records, 1987 Game(s): Ikari Warriors II: Victory Road, Athena, Tank (TNK III), Ikari Warriors, Alpha Mission Time for another G.M.O. release! This one covers 5 SNK arcade games from the mid-80s. It's not my favorite collection of tunes, but there's still some solid stuff in there. Particularly the Ikari Warriors theme is catchy and tends to get randomly stuck in my head at times. Unfortunately this is one of the few albums in my G.M.O. collection where I'm missing the sheet music insert, so no pictures of that one. #vgmvinyl #videogamevinyl #instavinyl #vinyl #vinylcollector #vinylcollection #records #vinylrecords #vinyljunkie #recordcollector #vinyligclub #snk #ikariwarriors #ikariwarriors2 #athena #alphamission #tnkiii
  • Album: Scarlet Nexus Artist(s): Hayata Takeda Label: Bandai Namco (@bandainamcoeu), 2021 Game(s): Scarlet Nexus Wasn't sure what to expect from this, but I was pleasantly surprised at how good this mix of electronic and orchestral tracks. It's just a small selection of a much larger soundtrack, but the picks feel solid nonetheless. There was some small issues with it as Bamco announced it is being red and black vinyl + it was meant to feature one more track. Minor things in the grand scheme, but it was never acknowledged. Ultimately, though, it's a good pressing of great music and I'm glad it's a thing. #vgmvinyl #videogamevinyl #instavinyl #vinyl #vinylcollector #vinylcollection #records #vinylrecords #vinyljunkie #recordcollector #vinyligclub #scarletnexus #hayatatakeda #bandainamco
  • Album: Mooseman Soundtrack Artist(s): Mikhail Shvachko (@mikhailshvachko) Label: Red Art Games (@redartgames), 2021 Game(s): The Mooseman Short but beautiful soundtrack to a quite interesting looking game. The Mooseman is inspired by mythology and folklore from the Komi people in the Perm region of Russia, which certainly isn't your everyday setting. As such the music also takes inspiration from Komi folk music and even uses a student choir from the Perm region for its choral parts. The pressing is limited to just 300 numbered copies, but seemingly it didn't sell that well as you can occasionally find it for sale for quite cheap. Even so, it's pretty affordable even when not on sale and it's definitely one worth giving a chance. #vgmvinyl #videogamevinyl #instavinyl #vinyl #vinylcollector #vinylcollection #records #vinylrecords #vinyljunkie #recordcollector #vinyligclub #mooseman #redartgames #mikhailshvachko
  • Album: Marvel vs. Capcom 2 Mixtape Artist(s): Planet Asia (@planetasiamedallions), DJ Toure, Havoc (@mobbdeephavoc), Nyce, Raekwon (@raekwon), Oh No (@ohnothedisrupt), Random (@mega_ran), Blaze Rock, Storyville, DJ Qbert (@djqbert), Talib Kweli, Hieroglyphics, The Grouch, Eligh, E-40 (@e40), Droop-E, MC Supernatural Label: Capcom, 2009 Game(s): Marvel vs. Capcom 2 Not the original soundtrack, but a hip hop mixtape with some absolute hip hop greats. It was released for free digitally by Capcom and Marvel in anticipation of the digital release of the game for Xbox 360 and PS3. The vinyl pressing is limited to 200 copies and was available at Capcom's fighting games panel as well as from their merch booth (as a "free" giveaway to people who spent more than $500 (!!) there) during SDCC 2009. I nabbed one on eBay instead. #vgmvinyl #videogamevinyl #instavinyl #vinyl #vinylcollector #vinylcollection #records #vinylrecords #vinyljunkie #recordcollector #vinyligclub #marvelvscapcom2 #marvel #capcom #mvc2
  • Album: PopSlinger Original Soundtrack Artist(s): Skule Toyama (@skule_toyama_tc) Label: Neoncity Records (@neoncity_records), 2022 Game(s): PopSlinger Artwork: Shiho So (@shihoso) How about a stylish indie shoot/beat 'em up that's oozing good vibes with future funk and disco tunes? That's PopSlinger and it got a gorgeous vinyl release a few years back. There's not a bunch of bonus stuff included, but the art, colors and music just goes extremely well hand-in-hand. It's long sold-out, but fear not - a new pressing is dropping next week from @vgnysoftgames, which may or may not have inspired me to do this post on the original release ;) #vgmvinyl #videogamevinyl #instavinyl #vinyl #vinylcollector #vinylcollection #records #vinylrecords #vinyljunkie #recordcollector #vinyligclub #popslinger #skuletoyama #neoncityrecords
  • Album: The Revenge Of Shinobi Artist(s): Yuzo Koshiro Label: Data Discs (@datadiscs), 2017 Game(s): The Revenge Of Shinobi A Mega Drive/Genesis classic action game - and with a great soundtrack as well. It was Yuzo Koshiro's first soundtrack commissioned by Sega and you can absolutely hear his influences from dance music here already, even if The Revenge Of Shinobi still sounds a little more "video game-y" (is that a thing?) compared to his later works on the Streets Of Rage series. This is the original 2017 pressing from Data Discs, which was sourced directly from Mega Drive hardware. It comes with an insert with the cover art on one side and new liner notes by Yuzo Koshiro on the other. Since this vinyl release came out, Koshiro discovered his original files for the music and had them remastered for the new vinyl edition, which released earlier this year. It's an excellent soundtrack and as with all Data Discs pressings it sounds great as well, so it's well worth seeking out. #vgmvinyl #videogamevinyl #instavinyl #vinyl #vinylcollector #vinylcollection #records #vinylrecords #vinyljunkie #recordcollector #vinyligclub #therevengeofshinobi #yuzokoshiro #datadiscs #sega
  • Album: Ultimate Chicken Horse Original Soundtrack Artist(s): Vibe Avenue (@vibeavenuemusic) Label: Debug Records, 2020 Game(s): Ultimate Chicken Horse A massively underrated banger of an album. Jazz, funk, prog?! This soundtrack is as diverse as the amounts of traps you can lay for your friends in the game. Came out on Debug Records back in the early days of COVID and is limited to just 300 copies that also came with a game character sticker sheet. It sold somewhat slowly, but is long gone now. It's a lovely piece of music that works great both in the game and as a standalone listen, so I can definitely recommend picking it up if you come across a copy in the wild. #vgmvinyl #videogamevinyl #instavinyl #vinyl #vinylcollector #vinylcollection #records #vinylrecords #vinyljunkie #recordcollector #vinyligclub #ultimatechickenhorse #vibeavenue #debugrecords
  • Album: I'll Keep Coming / Easy Way Out Artist(s): Low Roar (lowroar) Label: Mondo (@mondonews), 2017 Game(s): Death Stranding Artwork: Randy Ortiz (@randyortizdtd) This 12" dropped in early 2017 following Death Stranding's announcement at E3 2016 and comes with the song "I'll Keep Coming" from said trailer alongside the song "Easy Way Out" both by Low Roar (RIP...). Both songs were eventually included in the game and also released on a separate vinyl release featuring the game's licensed songs. But seeing as the game didn't release until late 2019 that one was still a ways out when Mondo dropped this 12". There may not be a lot on this release, but what's there is great. Cover with art by Randy Ortiz look great and the heavy black splatter came out superb. #vgmvinyl #videogamevinyl #instavinyl #vinyl #vinylcollector #vinylcollection #records #vinylrecords #vinyljunkie #recordcollector #vinyligclub #lowroar #deathstranding #mondo #randyortizart #hideokojima
  • Album: Watch_Dogs Artist(s): Brian Reitzell Label: Invada Records (@invadarecords), 2014 Game(s): Watch_Dogs Artwork: Marc Bessant & Mathieu Leduc I really want Brian Reitzell to do more video game scores. To be honest I care very little about the games he's scored - but the music? Great stuff! Wasn't super familiar with his music before picking up this beauty. Great electronic score with killer artwork and a lovely colorway. Ticks all the boxes. It led me to check out his great work on the Hannibal TV show and his earlier score for Red Faction: Armageddon, both of which are also really good. This one's very affordable second hand, too, and definitely worth checking out. #vgmvinyl #videogamevinyl #instavinyl #vinyl #vinylcollector #vinylcollection #records #vinylrecords #vinyljunkie #recordcollector #vinyligclub #watchdogs #invadarecords #brianreitzell #ubisoft
  • Album: It's Bugsnax! Artist(s): Kero Kero Bonito (@kerokerobonito) Label: iam8bit (@iam8bit), 2020 Game(s): Bugsnax Artwork: Young Horses (@younghorsesgames) Yeah, it's playing in your head already, isn't it? Catchy as hell theme song from the game Bugsnax, which was featured in the game's announcement trailer way back in 2020 and was released on this 7" shortly after the game came out. Made with strawberry screen print on the b-side and (very slightly) strawberry scented as well. Sadly, the pressing quality of this 7" isn't very good, so you're better off grabbing the 2LP soundtrack to Bugsnax, which came out a few years later and also features this song - and as of this post is cheaper than the 7" as well. #vgmvinyl #videogamevinyl #instavinyl #vinyl #vinylcollector #vinylcollection #records #vinylrecords #vinyljunkie #recordcollector #vinyligclub #bugsnax #kerokerobonito #iam8bit #younghorses #kindabugandkindasnack
  • Album: Toy Music: Dancing Super Mario Brothers Artist(s): Akihabara Electric Circus Label: Eastworld, 1988 Game(s): The Mysterious Murasame Castle, Famicom Tantei Club: Kieta Koukeisha, Super Mario Bros., Kid Icarus, Shin Onigashima, Famicom Grand Prix: F1 Race, Famicom Grand Prix II: 3D Hot Rally, Metroid, The Legend Of Zelda Artwork: Synske Sda The 80s were a wild time. So wild that you could get officially sanctioned Nintendo arrangement albums. And those albums could be wild too. Like this one - in all its cheesy 80s synth glory. It tries out a lot of things and while it can be hit or miss it's at the very least always fun. My favorite is the crazy Zelda track with its heavily synthesized narrator voice describing the story of the game... and it's hard to describe, it has to be heard. #vgmvinyl #videogamevinyl #instavinyl #vinyl #vinylcollector #vinylcollection #records #vinylrecords #vinyljunkie #recordcollector #vinyligclub #toymusicdancingsupermariobrothers #nintendo #supermario #akihabaraelectriccircus
  • Album: Ghost Giant Soundtrack Artist(s): Joel Bille (@joelbulle) & Bortre Rymden (@bortrerymden) Label: Perp Games (@perpgames), 2019 Game(s): Ghost Giant What a gem. Cozy folksy vibes. The good soundtrack not only to a VR game, but a great soundtrack to being home alone, reading a book, contemplating. Nothing captures the feeling of the soundtrack better than the title of the track "Mitt Happyplace När Världen Står I Brand" - literally: "my happy place when the world is on fire". It's not one I can listen to on repeat, but for the specific vibe mentioned above there's nothing quite like it. It's a pressing of just 200 copies launched alongside physical PS4 copies of the game (but at least available for purchase on its own). Despite the low run it took a while to sell out, but more people seem to have realized the small genius of this soundtrack as it's gone up a fair bit in price since. #vgmvinyl #videogamevinyl #instavinyl #vinyl #vinylcollector #vinylcollection #records #vinylrecords #vinyljunkie #recordcollector #vinyligclub #ghostgiant #joelbille #perpgames
  • Album: Pulstar The Definitive Soundtrack Artist(s): Harumi Fujita Label: Brave Wave (@bravewavemusic), 2019 Game(s): Pulstar I'm quite conflicted with this release. The compositions are great, the packaging is nice and the booklet with Fujita breaking down each track is excellent... But the AES version of the soundtrack on disc 1 is so poor quality. And I don't mean the pressing, but the actual music. Thankfully the release is redeemed by the inclusion of the Neogeo CD version of the soundtrack on disc 2, which is straight up fantastic. I remember getting to disc 2 on my first listen and immediately thinking "this is how it should sound!". I don't ever see myself putting on the AES disc again, but the CD disc and the booklet more than makes this release worth checking out. #vgmvinyl #videogamevinyl #instavinyl #vinyl #vinylcollector #vinylcollection #records #vinylrecords #vinyljunkie #recordcollector #vinyligclub #pulstar #neogeo #snk #bravewave #harumifujita
  • Album: Wai Wai Game Music Artist(s): Hisayoshi Ogura, Junko Ozawa, Norio Nakagata Label: Softbank Publishing, 1988 Game(s): The Ninja Warriors, Bravoman, Toy Pop Time for yet another Beep Magazine game music flexi disc. This is from a March 1988 issue and features 3 tracks from Taito's arcade game The Ninja Warriors on side A, and a live performance of music from Bravoman and Toy Pop from a Namco Christmas charity concert. #vgmvinyl #videogamevinyl #instavinyl #vinyl #vinylcollector #vinylcollection #records #vinylrecords #vinyljunkie #recordcollector #vinyligclub #waiwaigamemusic #beepspecialproject #beepmagazine #taito #namco
