It's kind of funny how many late 90s games had at least one drum and bass track (lemmy.world)

Not because it's bad, but because it was so ubiquitous. I love that about late 90s and early 00s games. Examples: ace combat 2, klonoa. I just find it interesting, a thing of the era for sure. Do you remember any other games that had this type of music?

I've noticed on the radio that drum & bass is making a sneaky comeback. Usually not entire songs, but some modern songs will have a bridge or finale with a clear drum & bass beat. I like how younger people creating this music must've gone: "wow this ancient form of music has a sick beat, it'll be cool in my song". Same way as 90's music often has references to disco.
