Samples Battletoads, Gitaroo Man, Mega Man X, and more
My boy Random a.k.a. Mega Ran was performing at MAGFest, so of course I had to swing by his set and show some love. Those who had never seen a Mega Ran performance were in for a treat. Even Niero and Dale North were floored by “Sock Hop” off Ran’sRiver City Randomalbum!
Long-time Ran fans were in for a surprise too — a brand-new joint, “Outta Sight,” that samples the famouspause beatfromBattleToads. It’s the lead track in a new EP entitledTime and Space, the first in a monthly EP series in which Ran will make songs based off games suggested by fans. ForTime and Space, expect to hear tracks that sourceChrono Trigger,Final Fantasy Tactics,Gitaroo Man,Ms. Pac-Man,Earthworm Jim, andMega Man X.
