Ragger Reimagines Ragtime As Video-Game Soundtrack
|
3.1
Los Angeles duo Ragger (Marc Riordan and Jon Leland) release debut album Euphonic Sounds in 2026, reimagining seven Scott Joplin pieces and one George Botsford tune as 8-bit, video-game-style synth arrangements. The record juxtaposes Joplin’s marching melodic lines with gimcrack synth timbres and rickety digital percussion, offering a playful, nostalgic sound that may appeal mainly to chiptune or Nintendo-era game aesthetics.
