So I was all set to post about “Johto Legends (Music from "Pokémon Gold and Silver") by Braxton Burks” but when I went to his bandcamp page to get the requisite album info, he had already released another album. Curious, I said to myself. And, oh man, oh wow. Burks has five albums, all of various length, and all in tribute to the music of Pokemon. Each of these five albums has been released THIS YEAR. All back in the month of January. This post is technically about just one album though, but if you have a certain stylistic or pokemon generational preference, then you will likely be served well by something on the Burks bandcamp page.

After listening to A LOT of Pokemon music for an episode of Sound Test, I have grown especially fond of the music from Ecruteak city, or as I like to call it, Blue Field Theme from Pokemon Pinball. No matter what you know it as, it's a quality theme, so be sure to check out Braxton Burks full and sweeping orchestration of it on this album.
