The influence on UK urban music particularly cannot be doubted. Check out this mix: https://soundcloud.com/kodenine/kode9-sinogrime-minimix-2005 https://soundcloud.com/kodenine/kode9-sinogrime-minimix-2005 Especially the tune that comes in just after 6 minutes, and the one which follows it at around 8:30. They could be straight out of a (S)NES game, as could much of grime records from those days. While its now coveted by hipsters/nerds, at the time it was ghetto music. There's still nothing like it out there which has the same effect. EDIT: heres another couple. these could be straight from the secret of mana soundtrack or something: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bU2dLHrpOlY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bU2dLHrpOlY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vehT9HG6gbo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vehT9HG6gbo as a bonus heres that first one in its natural habitat, with vocals :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQra9nENdzA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQra9nENdzA One of the MCs in that clip is now a chart-topping pop star. This one actually reached number 31 in the charts itself, and I'm pretty sure some of the percussion is actually sampled from a gameboy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D8PeDsO0vGo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D8PeDsO0vGo
