GN Version 5.0

Mario & Chill is the follow-up to our 2018 hit, Zelda & Chill. This album explores the rich musical history of Nintendo's Super Mario video game series through the lens of 80s and 90s electronica. Inspired by the era when Mario first hit the scene, Mario & Chill was produced with synthesizers, guitars, and retro drum machines all akin to the era. Created by Helynt (https://youtube.com/helynt1) a Synthwave producer from Italy, the album is an emotive and nostalgic trip through video game music history.
