New this week on the Game channel on Rainwave: the absolutely stunning digital fusion soundtrack to Chiki's Chase, the funky collectathon throwback New Super Lucky's Tale, tense piano from Stella of The End, bitcrushed hard rock from Rakugakids, and that weird Magic Knight Rayearth Saturn OST.

We've been busy expanding Rainwave's new Chill channel with a lot of music additions over the last two weeks. Games like Pokemon Scarlet/Violet, Kirby Air Riders, Little Kitty, Big City, Rain World, and many more, plus the Zelda Classics and Zelda & Sleep albums. Turn on; tune in; nod off.

Very excited to announce that Rainwave now has a Chill station! Our first new stream in 15 years, it's a curated collection of relaxed/lo-fi/chill songs to vibe to, with all of Rainwave's normal features underneath.

You may be noticing some instability on Rainwave as we endure ten years worth of software updates at once. The site may be slightly out of sync with what you hear - just pretend you're Nic Cage in the movie Next. If any streams go offline entirely or other bugs occur, please let us know on Discord.

The wait is over: Goddess of Victory: Nikke is breasting boobily onto Rainwave with 43 songs selected from its infinitely vast soundtrack. From chipper rock music with ultra clean guitars to dramatic orchestras, heavy metal, and chiptunes, it's quite a spread.
