For my first review of the year, I circled back to a composer that I’ve reviewed before–Chase Bethea. He has quite a few albums under his belt, so I had some idea of what to expect when he released his new game soundtrack for On the Peril of Parrots. Well, let me be the first to say that all my preconceptions were wrong.

For this Review Roundup, I’ve chosen to review the latest offerings from Chernabogue, Lacey Johnson, Chase Bethea, and Tim de Man.

Blend together one part nostalgia, one part eclectic rhythms, and one part electronic music for the </reality> soundtrack by Chase Bethea.
