Welcome to World 6: Obligatory Forest Level

Why is it that almost every video game has a forest level? Perhaps it's because of their diversity and the many feelings that can be expressed through their role in any story. They can be gentle places filled with light, they can be dark and foreboding, and in most cases they are places of mystery where danger or delight could be hiding just around the corner. Obligatory Forest Level explores all of these facets with classic music from Chrono Trigger, many Final Fantasies, Pokemon, Banjo-Kazooie and tons more. This is an 18 minute epic featuring our guest flautist Ingrid Cheung.

The songs are fantastic and fun - it's so easy for me to listen to this album on repeat. And the album cover is so great. The pun on the title just makes me chuckle every time I look at it. I really wish I could buy a physical copy of your other albums as well! tousledbirb

Escape
by WASD

supported by 14 fans who also own “Obligatory Forest Level”

Escape is an awesome collection of badass metal covers. The selection of source material is wonderful in itself. The instrumentation is tight and the compositions are heavy- especially the last leg of the album. I was caught off guard by the straight up hardcore breakdown in Highest Bidder. I especially dig moments where the bass cuts loose. Great stuff! Unicorn Hole
