Re-creating the experience of the Retro Arcades


The music of the arcades.

I was there, back in the day, and this is my selection for music to play retro games by.
Set the volume of the music and that of the game to about equal. Oh yeah, and don't
forget to kill the main lights, and throw some red and blue lights in there for atmosphere.
