Tracking new VGM releases since 2022

Mining Merchant carves its path with KAESUL's mesmerizing soundtrack


May is off to a great start with the release of Mining Merchant, which could be simply described as a mining equivalent to Dave the Diver. The core gameplay involves exploring the depths to gather ore by day and upgrading your shop by night with your findings. This game design implies a contrast between two radically different atmospheres—a challenge that KAESUL’s music handles beautifully.

This short 12-track album offers energetic, house and trip-hop-infused electronic pieces for the exploration phases, alongside more laid-back, spellbinding tracks to score the quieter moments of this game by Delayed Victory.

I’d like to take this opportunity to share a quick milestone: Mining Merchant is officially the 400th album listed on nwpl.ing! Feel free to browse the entire collection at this address.
