Podcast: NLFM Episode 20: It's Alive!
Posted by Jon Wahlgren
Thanks for hanging on to those RSS feeds
Had you going there for a while, didn't we?
Weekly. Ha!
Sorry for the absence, fearless listeners, but Nintendo Life's chip and game music podcast NLFM is back on track after a too-long hiatus. And boy do we have some doozies for your ears!
1. Shiryu — The Goddamn Batman (Shiryu’s Arcade vol. 4)
2. Yoko Shimomura, Manami Kiyota, Yasunori Mitsuda — Mechanical Rhythm (Xenoblade Chronicles)
3. Hideyuki Fukasawa — Juri’s Theme (Super Street Fighter 4)
4. Zircon — Ashes to Ashes (Harmony of a Hunter)
5. Hip Tanaka — HVC-1384 (Play for Japan)
In case you've missed out on the fun so far, NLFM generally focuses on music from games playable on Nintendo consoles and handhelds, which, thanks to the Virtual Console, also includes the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive and Master System, Turbografx-16, Neo Geo and Commodore 64. It's not all games either as we highlight musicians and albums we really like, as well as your own original gaming compositions.
To prevent the foul smell that comes with missing episodes, subscribe to our Podcast feed or download it using this direct link. You can also find us on iTunes (don't forget to rate us!) and also drop original compositions of yours you'd like us to play on the show in our Soundcloud dropbox.
Like James Bond, NLFM will return. Unlike Bond, it will be on October 10 for our second annual Halloween Hootenanny. Got a specific spooky request? Sound off in the comments or on Twitter.

This better be back officially, and not just return to a mega-hiatus in two weeks.

Am so glad this is back. Keep it going Jon. I'll admit I didn't always listen to this, but found myself missing it when it was gone so i will be sure to show my support more. Keep it up. Love the Batman tune too. So many memories.
