just dropping in here in case anyone wanted to know and was not aware that Chip Tanaka (who worked on the music for Earthbound and a bunch of other Nintendo games) has a new album out on Bandcamp
https://chiptanaka.bandcamp.com/album/domingo
(think I'd missed this thread before, will be checking out the youtubes now - or once I've finished listening to Tanaka's Snoopy Concert music for Super Famicom/SNES. Earthboundish vibes plus Vince Guaraldi "Linus & Lucy" motif all over the place)
(yeaahhh I stole both these from a Frank Cifaldi tweet, hat tip etc)
― L. Prague de Scamp (a passing spacecadet), Sunday, 19 July 2020 14:28 (four years ago)
Beautiful Wikipedia sentences of our time:
Among specific musical influences, Tanaka has cited Brian Wilson, Randy Newman, Stackridge, Yabby U, the Flying Lizards, Prince, Lalo Rodriguez, My Bloody Valentine, Frank Zappa, Keiichi Suzuki, Hal Willner's various artists compilations, Sly Dunbar, Jah Wobble, and the Slits.

Spotted this one ages ago, but I've yet to see it included in any of the Earthbound samples lists.
The Lava Springs theme has to be a sample from Jon Hassell and Brian Eno's "Delta Rain Dream":
