@SpiralPegasus I don't know if you're stilll online and read this right now, since it's been a year since your last post... but no... most of the musicians were not familiar with our work... but had to stick with Rob Hubbard's arrangements of this music piece I wrote when I was 17 years old... I was young, they were young... some remembered, but they are all young professionally trained musicians. They loved doing it. I met them all... at almost every performance... great people!
@freejaytea Yes, I'm still around! I'm always glad to hear what one of the men behind the magic has to say!
It's a shame really - you can tell they are professionals, but when you know a song by heart (specially memorable ones, such as Supremacy/Monty on the Run/Turbo Outrun/Robocop 3's title screen) and you bring it to life, playing it on a real instrument, you always put a bit more of yourself when you perform.
Still, great performance!
Oh and... have you heard Machinae Supremacy's cover?
this is glorious!

Amazing. And I mean AMAZING. Gotta admit it beats the SID music. A little, as the SID is a classic, but my God... It's great. :)

Smetana, Brahms and Liszt in a C64 game"s music. I loved this music, and this game, of course. :)

for those like me who loves Metal and Classical Music... to listen to this version and Machinae Supremacy's is magical...

@lagranputa666 Yes, absolutely! MaSu's version is technically and musically impressive.
I have a question though: Were they all C64 owners or they were just hired to play Hubbard's arrangements?
