Does anybody have a source for the band playing the Mr. Gimmick music?

I think they meant the video Kageyama watched.

The best part of the episode 2 for me is when Kageyama says he quitted music because he wasn't aware of any recognition to his.

It made me think : "True, we have now soundcloud, bc and all this stuff, and internet more generally, so we can spread our music and receive (or not) recognition for it, but at that time you just enjoyed the music when playing the game and couldn't check it out elsewhere and/or contact him to tell him how much you love what he makes, so you eventually came to forget the composer, only remembering his melodies, leaving him totally unrewarded for his effort."

How harsh is it to put the best of yourself in creating a piece for people to enjoy it knowing you won't have any feedback or praise on it, and that nobody will know you for that ?

my personal highlight was to learn that Akio Dobashi, the dude on the keys in the videoclip below, composed the score for a NES game.

This is so true. I feel like sending him a long letter of thanks now... along with many other artists, just to let them know how much I've appreciated their work...
