Donkey Kong Bananza

from Bit Harmony: A Videogame Music Podcast · host Matt Murray, Seth Sturgill

There was a time when this episode would've been considered the grand finale of our Summer of Nintendo - but there's a good reason why that's all changed now. Instead, tuck in to a dazzling return to form: a lengthy, in-depth discussion with your Normal Boys about Donkey Kong Bananza's wonderful soundtrack, unique design sensibilities and unnecessarily juicy asses.
