With nearly two decades of experience remixing video game music, Ben comes full circle on this album collaborating with fellow artists and friends such as VGR, arthur x medic, RoboRob, Bolide, Vector U, Baircave, Catmosphere, Mega Flare, Besso0, Nokbient, to create an immersive experience of his own that is VGM Essentials: Ben BriggsBen and his friends cover a variety of nostalgic video game songs from CHRONO TRIGGER, Diddy Kong Racing, Sonic Colors, Super Mario Galaxy, and more.

Ben states, "if there’s anything I want people to take away from this album, it’s the feeling that these games from our past life are not only real, but immortal and endlessly magical. I wanted to capture the feeling of playing these retro games for the first time; when our imagination filled in all the blanks between pixels and polygons, and picking up a controller was our ticket to new worlds and the feeling of being surrounded by magic and wonder. A perfectly tailor-made upgrade to your fondest memories."

Also available on vinyl and cassette.
