Kyle and Slider relax this week as they check out some of the best acoustic and organic arrangements that video game music has offer, including songs from Level 99, Darangen, MintJam, Geoffrey Taucer, Danneman & Silverknekt, and many more. There’s also a first for NGI as a game is actually played LIVE on the show for the first time! Kyle plays and narrates the first level of Yoshi’s Island on the air (trust us: it makes sense in context. ) Check it out!
