Here's the latest episode of our weekly podcast dedicated to videogame music – Sound of Play

For many of us, it’s hard to think of almost any videogame without our minds conjuring up the music that accompanied it. What we aim to bring you with Sound of Play is a diverse sample of our favourite pieces from the many air-punching, spine-tingling, tear-jerking and grin-inducing videogame soundtracks we’ve heard over the years. Of course it’s not just about what we like, so if you venture over to our forum at caneandrinse.com you can put forward your favourites and we’ll start to include a selection in the playlist for each show.

This show’s presenters was Leon Cox

Great selection of tracks I loved the sweet 8/16 bit tunes, bubble bobble gave me goose bumps and brought a tear to my eye. Leon is the superstar DJ.

That opening track made me want to hug somebody. Unfortunately I was alone at home making a microwave burrito at 1 in the morning. I'll definitely be picking up the Planet Coaster soundtrack when I have the available funds.

I don't think I have the same feel-good associations to many of the older tunes, but they were still fun, and solo Leon shows are always a treat.

Kind of you to say, because I do think it might seem lazy and/or indulgent to go it solo, but I do enjoy freewheeling.
