Amiga Music - Hybris (HQ+Stereo)

[deLord1337]

Requesting midi file or Piano sheet! Definately one of the best Amiga Soundtracks EVER

[enderleit]

One of my all-time favourite tunes. I used to load the game just to hear the music. :P

[RegePower]

a lot of years ago a program called Exotic Ripper was able to rip all of this sounds... :-)

[zerosumdkp]

Sounds just like a chip tune trainer music. I fucking love it.

[cavedweller2000]

omg...I'm 10 again!!

[falibamse]

I remember playing this game with my father way past my bedtime on school days. He was more hooked than me. Great times. Brilliant music.

[Alevamltd]

Amiga music was just pure magic

... and four channels of 8-bit PCM, but mostly magic.

[MrSmiley1978]

(((d(--__--)b))) I loved this game. AMIGA Games had some very good tunes

[superman1234393]

The music is really good dude.

[Hertje73]

Back in the days.. I recorded this on tape and listened to it on my walkman at school.. God this music is still AWESOME!! :D

[mrdisk0dav3]

It is all waves playing but there's pitch bend and arpeggios. Also some of the little repeated square waves are being editted in memory (by Paul van der Valk's play routine) as the wave plays ... so altering the proportion of up to down as you listen. That's where the long interesting chip-guitar-wah-wah sound comes from. In this way it get's to be a synth even though the hardware only plays waves.

[mrdisk0dav3]

doh - i take it back,,, scratch + drum solo is in the other Hybris track

[mrdisk0dav3]

You didn't include the scratch + drum solo :(

[lisochek1]

My ring tone ;D

[viperz7z]

@lisochek1:

if i had this as my ringtone, i could't answer any calls since i would become nostalgic and listen to the music until they hang up and then become a bit angry about them hanging up, causing the music to stop playing xD

[zendakk]

I always thought it was a shame that Iron Maiden didn't make a song based on the section from 1:09

[stouf04]

Amiga can make synthetic sound, remember SONIX ...

[neoprana]

its fucking simple I did start this game to listen to this awesome music :)

By the way the game was very good but the music blow me away ...

[DingofromOz]

I also get goosebumps when listening to it. So ethereal!

[ryashentsev]

god I love it

[estebann]

huuuuuuge soundtrack

[MrBigmac1971]

omg never heard this tune b4.this is awsome

[Thunderblade64]

THAT is computer music. Most Amiga musics were just MODs with digitized instruments. But this one... wow. It really uses the SYNTH capabilities of Amiga's sound chip. Awesome.

[hooverphonique]

@Thunderblade64 The amiga sound hardware has no synth capabilities!

[Thunderblade64]

@hooverphonique Of course it has. I have programmed music in AmigaBASIC with no samples at all. It has e.g. programmable sound envelope, attack and decay times etc.

[hooverphonique]

@Thunderblade64 that's correct, but that's a softsynth. I said it has no synth *hardware* !

[hooverphonique]

@Thunderblade64 AmigaBASIC uses softsynth.. I used to code demos for the Amiga and know the hardware inside out, so you can trust me on this!

[Thunderblade64]

@hooverphonique Okay I was referring to various articles that said you could use something like a freely programmable waveform on the Amiga. I guess this is was Hybris is doing. I wasn't aware though, that a "totally freely programmable wave form with values from -128 to +127" actually is identical to what today is known as "waves". So you either fed the chip with "samples" of a real wave, or you programmed it. Also AEGIS Sonix was doing that, I guess. Thanks for clarifying. :-)

[hooverphonique]

@stouf04 no I'm not.. sonix, as you mention, uses softsynth.. I was talking about the hardware..

[stouf04]

@hooverphonique yes, sorry, i've readen too fast, i'm sure that Amiga can make synth sounds, but with soft synth as Sonix, not with hardware which uses only samples, but i ask myself how a soft can make synth sounds without hardware for, just by coding ?? on my first amstrad cpc i could make sounds and music by coding in basic ... ( i delete my comm up ;-) )

[the1seal]

Awesome music and awesome game..;D

[LordLighty]

thank you for bringing back great memories. :)

This was my first Amigagame, I only knew pixelated Atari 800XL and C16 games until that. It blew me away! That title screen, the colors, the music! Just wow. :)

[tatsujincorp]

one of the greatest chip tunes of EVER! @1:10 I got the goosebumbs when ever I lissen to it!!

uber great stuff!! CUS FORMAT FTW!!

[licksers]

@tatsujincorp totally agree with you!! Tried 2 cover it on Protracker once and it was really hard work. !!

[estebann]

rocks rocks rocks !!!

[MicBain81]

still the best videogame music EVER...

[gsavogin]

@MicBain81 Absolutely!!!!!!!!!!!! My first Amiga Game, brand new, geez buddy, I still remember that!!!!
