Today, on the 1UPBEAT, as the CINEMATIC SOUND RADIO NETWORK turns 25 years ago, it's a great opportunity to see what the world of video game music was like back in 1996. This massive four-part special series will cover the classic game franchises that began in 1996, the launch of the Nintendo 64, and other amazing soundtracks.

In part one, you will hear selections from POKEMON: RED & GREEN, BIO HAZARD, METAL SLUG, CRASH BANDICOOT, PERSONA and TOMB RAIDER.

Enjoy the show!
