Journey to Silius is a 1990 action game for the Nintendo Entertainment System, and its soundtrack has long been praised by retro gaming fans for its unusually strong bass work. The opening bassline in particular became a favourite clip on soundboards and in short edits, where its confident groove works even for people who never played the game. Its one-second length makes it easy to drop into memes, and its retro punch still stands out against modern, heavily produced music.
