8 Tracks: Of Music From ’90s Video Games With Scent

British band Scent recently released to Wichita Recordings with DEEP SPRINGS, the third in a series of EPs that have marked them out as an act to keep a very close eye on. Dealing in swirling, hazy pop music, fans of Deerhunter, Tame Impala and Dirty Projectors would do well to give them a listen.
Scent have put together this excellent 8 Tracks selection of '90s video game soundtracks for us. From Secret of Mana and Ecco The Dolphin to more esoteric picks such as Kaite Dezaemon, dig in below, and check out the band's own video for the EP title track…
I guess I like a lot of these older video game OSTs because they’re proof you can do a whole lot emotionally with very few elements. This one nails that. Also the game itself lets you time travel as one of nature’s only masturbating animals, which is nice.
