Smooth McGroove’s Latest Comes From An SNES Classic
A cappella soundtrack performer Smooth McGroove has released a new track from a classic SNES action RPG. Square's Secret of Mana featured a exciting combat, a compelling story, and an extremely enjoyable soundtrack.
McGroove’s latest is “Into the Thick of It,” which comes from the early parts of the game as the male protagonist fights his way through rabbites after his exile. You can catch up with McGroove’s other work on his YouTube channel. You can also read a recent interview we conducted with the multi-toned maestro and reflections on the game written by editors Tim Turi and Kim Wallace.
