About Hideki Naganuma:
Naganuma is an acclaimed videogame music composer best known for his work on the Jet Set Radio series. However, he also produced tracks for other lesser known games like Sega Rally 2006, Ollie King, and Sonic Rush. Blending elements of techno, funk, hip hop, and madcap sampling of the big beat genre, Naganuma's style is often both wildly eclectic yet instantly recognizable.

About this Mixtape:
I'm a die hard Naganuma fan and decided to produce this mix in honor of the re-release of Jet Set Radio on Xbox 360 and PS3. While not all encompassing, I think it gives you a good taste of his defining uptempo tracks. It's a bit wild in parts for sure, but I included some visual elements in the video to break down what's happening in the mix.

Looking for tracks? Sega just re-released the original Jet Set Radio soundtrack on Amazon!

You can also find some albums on iTunes and Amazon MP3 (though some regions currently have limited access). And while I definitely don't condone piracy, some of Naganuma's more obscure tracks can be quite difficult to find. Google is a search engine.

Finally, here's an interesting recent interview with Naganuma over at RadioSega.net
