I've implemented a feature that I've always wanted to add; in fact, it was one of my initial planned features. Anyway, some of you may have figured out that switching playlists from VIP to Source while playing a track would send you to the selected track's source... track. Well, now there's a feature to make it even easier!

This button instantly swaps an arranged track with the original track! You can even keep it on the "sourced" track if you prefer it to the arrangement. Needless to say, this feature is only available in VIP.

I had a hard time trying to come up with a way to accentuate the sourced tracks, because even Chosen and blocked tracks can be sourced. My simple mind eventually settled on thick colored tabs. Here's a screenshot showing how the three features can work in tandem. If anyone else thinks they have a better design idea, I'm all ears.

Just be aware that the share link will still link to the VIP...

I love remakes, because it gives me an excuse to add more tracks to the same game and doesn't break my semi-strict and loosely enforced 3-track limit. We also live in an age of remakes and remasters, because that's what the fans want: nostalgia!

This update only covers Squeenix, because you can't go wrong with Squeenix music, right?

When I listened to the OST, there were a few stand-out tracks that clearly had an actual orchestra, and those tracks are the ones by Sachiko Miyano. I don't recognize her, but apparently she has a lot of experience. So ultimately, her...

We're living in the precursor to the age where post-apocalyptic cyberpunk could become a possibility. Picture for a moment walled "clean" cities where every non-biological object is sterilized. Citizens are monitored, judged, and ranked on cleanliness. Mandatory are all vaccinations and genetic engineering to boost immunity. People turn to cybernetics to free themselves from their natural biological filthiness. The sick are immediately quarantined in hospital prisons. Everything outside of the walled cities is a disease-ridden wasteland filled with cannibals and conservatives. And it's always nighttime for some reason.

Now that I set the tone, you're ready for the update.

Synthwave, specifically retrowave (or outrun if you're a redditor), is one of my favorite musical genres. I thank the Protomen for introducing me to it. You can argue that the Protomen's music isn't really synthwave (there's actually almost no synth), but their new...

In these most uncertain of times, Mother's Day has changed. People have been giving virtual hugs through video, emoting their hugs through texts, and giving air hugs from the other side of their mom's cage. For those that don't have moms, there's always making a virtual mom in the Sims, and then hugging your sim mom with your sim self. It's almost like real life!

All seriousness aside, this is just another Mellow update.

Everyone knows The Sims games have some great mellow tracks, so here have some!

I'm having this special update dedicated to a man who was wronged by the man. This update includes games that had Mick Gordon involved. Why? Because he's a super-talented composer who might lose his job because of corporate fuck-ups.

Before I get to it, I know he composed much of the music for the nu-Wolfenstein games. There are none in this update, unfortunately, because they're pretty much all ambient. Okay, now let's get to it.

Mick Gordon composed for some games prior to this, but Killer Instinct was his breakout hit.

A man so dedicated to his craft, Mick Gordon had incorporated vocals in each character's native language onto a bunch of tracks. He even visited a Buddhist...
