The Music Theory of Jet Set Radio

US And other gaming adjacent content      08/04/26

Video games; not everyone loves them, is it even a Sonicstate thing?! Who knows, but here is some collected Video Game adjacent content, given the popularity of the recent Jet Set Radio Samples article we published last month. This video expertly covers the Music Theory within this cult classic Dreamcast (and others) game, with references to the vibey compositions of Hideki Naganuma. Made by Alex Yard who has also covered the Music Theory of Sonic and many other games on his channel, which we covered a while back. 

Also for video game fans, we have a couple of videos on the ROMplers and synths which sound tracked early video games. Press start to play... I mean press play to watch...
