Google "City Pop"
I stumbled on to it a year or so ago, and it's pretty obvious how hard most classic video game music cribbed from it.
- richardjdare 8y agoReminds me a bit of how when I was a teen, Amiga demoscene and game music sounded like nothing else and contributed to my sense that the "computer world" was something apart. Then years later I found out about Italo Disco and Tangerine Dream.
