Sega Dreamcast - Bleemcast! Gran Turismo 2

Title: Bleemcast! Gran Turismo 2

Manufacturer: Bleem

Original Game: Gran Turismo 2 / グランツーリスモ2

Developer of Original Game: Polyphony Digital

Publisher of Original Game: Sony Computer Entertainment Inc.

Original Game Release Date: 11 December 1999

Bleem Release Year: 2001

Genre: PlayStation Emulator

In case you've been living under a rock, Bleem for Dreamcast allows you to play PlayStation games on your Dreamcast, but not only that.  The games are enhanced with smoother graphics 640x480 (better than what the PS2 does) and hi-resolution full screen anti-aliasing (better than what the PS2 does), but with a price.  There is a price, though; each Bleem for Dreamcast can only play one game that it's designed for.  There is another Bleem disc around on the net that will play many PlayStation games, complete with smoother graphics and higher resolution, but there are graphics problems with some games. But it's a small price to pay for expanding your Dreamcast's library of software.

I also own the original copy of the game, by the way. Gran Turismo 2 offers more depth and detail than any other driving game, but don't expect to love it unless you're into driving games. The GT mode is as daunting a single-player journey as any role-player and equally rewarding. It's a shame that you can't buy any of the non-Japanese cars second-hand in this mode, but knowing that you've got to buy that awesome Lotus Elise brand new gives you another incentive to keep winning races.

I reach for something And came back with nothing I know there's something out there Proving I need to be I dreamed of being Somewhere where no one knows my name Lying in the wait of something Caught between the Sun and the Moon

I'm gonna surf my soul Yes, I'm gonna show them all today High up on the break And I'm gonna surf my soul today

Is this blood or is this power? In this day, the twilight hour Bring me food, bring me water This is how; this is now Love me more and love me harder In this night, the witching hour Kiss me now, kiss forever This is how; this is now

from Gran Turismo 4 Original Soundtrack (2010)

SHCHEDRIVKI MY BELOVED

The Polyphony Project has some recordings of traditional polyphonic singing of shchedrivki

Like this one from Kozatske, Chernihivska oblast, which is very close to what became Carol of the Bells (let us pause for a moment to dropkick Wilhousky into space for those ding dongs):

Or this one from Stratiivka, Vinnytska oblast, which is notably different but closely related:

Traditional Ukrainian music is just on another level in general, but there's something in particular about this one that's just so captivating

(even with Jerry Heil recording it on a laptop setup and singing harmony to herself https://youtu.be/7XtkttHFw1E?si=gvhKBpmzKmTScyXz)
