BGMania B-Sides #30 of BGMania: A Video Game Music Podcast. Today on the show, Bedroth explores the vibrant synth-pop soundtrack of Wheel World, the charming cycling adventure from Messhof and Annapurna Interactive.

The neon soundtrack serves as the perfect backdrop for Kat's cycling adventures, featuring an incredible collection of tracks with dew-droppy bell melodies and electrifying synth propulsion. Created by artists from the Italians Do It Better label, including Johnny Jewel, JOON, and Orion, the music perfectly captures the mechanical and soulful combination at the heart of both cycling and electronic music. Whether you're a fan of retro synthwave, cycling games, or just great video game music, this B-Sides episode offers the perfect soundtrack for your own journey.
