crazy how this music can take you back to childhood memories of Rainy, cold days, sitting in with family and friends getting lost in the SNES games trying to complete them never realizing how much the music tracks really impacted your day to day living. I am grateful to have experienced this side of my childhood. Thank you for such a premium mix of nostalgia. I really enjoyed this.
Wow this brings me back. Back in the day I would record the music from the TV on tape and later transfer it from tape to the PC, to convert it to MP3 and copy it to my 32MB MP3 Player. People were laughing at me for listening to video game music, and it was kind of a relief to discover years later that there are other people on UA-cam that cherish this music as well. Thanks for this mix!
Same here bud, for me it was a minidisc player i used to sit there cabled up recording all the tunes from Goemon 64 Forsaken 64 goldeneye to this little high tech device that was about to get made completely useless by computers. I thought i was so cool.
Man... I want to live snes days... I grow up with sega genesis and later ps1... But i do really enjoy the snes rpg atmosphere... I want to live in it😓😓😵
Those old 8bit/16bit guitar sounds.... in our minds as kids that felt like Steve Vai on a rooftop levels of epic... now it's like haha... the adult mind, man. Kills the magic if we let it. I'm happy I can at least remember what it was like and live in that.
Thank you for this compilation. Takes me back. I know a lot of work went into editing this. Your time was appreciated. I also know how hard it is to get subs, so I subbed.
@Cheech-lk2yp I don't think it's easy to replace. It would maybe be easier to cut out. If I get time on PC I'll check it out. I have a more upbeat one in a relaxing NES one too that could be removed as well.

Two songs in, multiple ads right after both, takes you completely out of the experience. I have premium but when I try to listen at work, I can’t because every 2-5 minutes there’s an ad.
I just double checked and I have no say in where ads show up. I'm not a monetized channel. So it's something that YT is placing themselves. I've only seen an add at the beginning when not on my main account listening. Wish I could fix it. :/

@@CrownKnowledgeBase-o7r I'm glad you enjoyed it! It is amazing how much an impact the music had in these games.

Played board games with my family with this playing tonight :)
That's great to hear! Hope the gaming was extra fun!
This may be the best relaxing snes music list ever! I get lost in what I am doing whenever I put it on. Thank you for taking the time to make this ❤
@@ROMBomb001 Thanks for stopping by! I'm glad you enjoyed it. Have a great rest of your day!
The perfect ending track to 4 hours of epicness!
@@Ronindennis I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for stopping by!
My favorite relaxation music. Thank you for making this.
@andyfromdenver Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for stopping by, and have a great rest of your day!
I thought I had heard most of the great SNES music out there, you showed me I was wrong. Especially the Water World music, I had no idea! Thank you.
@@CMori-t4d Water World might not be a great game, but it has a great soundtrack! You should check it out!
Relaxing: "reducing tension or anxiety."
2:09:57 This is an alarm clock ⏰
A suitably triumphant way to start thine day 🐸
makes me feel like a hero!!!
Agreed, this track shouldn't be included in a relaxing mix. It's woke me up a few times.
Great compilation otherwise, though.
I find it relaxing (probably because of nostalgia), but I could also see it's not a good sleep song. Thanks for watching.
Man... I want to live snes days...
I grow up with sega genesis and later ps1...
But i do really enjoy the snes rpg atmosphere...
I want to live in it😓😓😵
It was great to have all those SNES RPGs to play!
Those old 8bit/16bit guitar sounds.... in our minds as kids that felt like Steve Vai on a rooftop levels of epic... now it's like haha... the adult mind, man. Kills the magic if we let it. I'm happy I can at least remember what it was like and live in that.
It's fun to enjoy it for what it was!
The beginning for itself deserved a like. Nice mix.
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for stopping by!
Great selection of music from such a nostalgic time in my life. Thanks for this!
@@ridankrad Thanks for stopping by and listening!

Radical Dreamers Frozen Flame is so good, it's in there twice!
It gets hard trying to keep track of what I've used. 😂 Thanks for stopping by!
Tasteful selection, all killler no filler! Helping me sleep. Appreciated :)
Thanks for stopping by and listening!
@@BeefyBites Although a replacement of the file without the CT track at 2:09:57 would be great. Jarring.
@Cheech-lk2yp I don't think it's easy to replace. It would maybe be easier to cut out. If I get time on PC I'll check it out. I have a more upbeat one in a relaxing NES one too that could be removed as well.
@@BeefyBites Just thought I'd make the suggestion dude, thanks again for your efforts! :)
Very nice song selection with the Mega Mix. Great work!
Thanks for stopping by and listening!
Great selection! Thanks!

@@E_X_I_T I wish I had control over that. That would be frustrating. I've only had ads show up for me at the beginning. 😑
@ you should be able to edit the placement via yt studio!
Ill keep listening on premium for now!
I have yt premium,since having that i have NEVER saw a single youtube ad for the last few years
Have no idea how anyone would have ads with premium
