Some podcasts are content to simply take over the world, but here at HipTrax we have grander designs; we are gunning for the entire universe!

Reach for the heavens with:

\\n\\n

\\u201cBirds, Stars, Pigs and Quasars\\u201d by The OneUps

\\n\\n

The OneUps latest, Intergalactic Continuum, is a funk-fueled journey through the stratosphere with stops in Hyrule and Funkotron. It\\u2019s available now at Bandcamp for a cool 10 bones, or you can check out the band\\u2019s official merch store for the physical version.

\\u201cSpace Dojo 1 (Double Dragon 1 \\u2013 Mission 2)\\u201d by Jake Kaufman

\\n\\n

Jake Kaufman is likely better known in VGM circles as virt \\u2013 or, if you prefer, \\u201cthat guy who composes the soundtracks for all my favorite games.\\u201d Recently he added the Double Dragon Neon OST to his already impressive discography, alongside such fan favorites as Contra 4 and Shantae: Risky\\u2019s Revenge. It\\u2019s also available now via Bandcamp as a pay-what-you-want release.

\\u201cThe Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A-Z\\u201d by Tribe One

\\n\\n

Last weekend I caught Tribe One (along with tourmates Adam WarRock, Mikal kHill and Jesse Dangerously) in nearby Charlotte, NC. Tribe\\u2019s set was phenomenal, but this track in particular was a true standout.
