@TheAuldWulf compared to the original (which I'm a big fan of), the lead doesn't stand out.. like, after the great buildup, I was expecting something cool to kick in, and instead you get a electronic duck quacking like sound.. I felt disappointed.. so I'm working on improving it a bit with Mixcraft.. but I haven't had time to work on it anymore lately.. and I'm sure not everyone will like it (IF I'm gonna share), as my skills with Mixcraft are okayish at best.. :)
@MPaans - That's actually really interesting. Thanks! I was just curious as to why you weren't as impressed by the lead synth as I was, and I meant nothing nasty by it, hence just a 'How so?' and nothing more! Yeah, I guess it was a bit of a flop compared to the original, but the overall piece of music is still nice.
@TheAuldWulf I didn't take any offense :) maybe I sounded a bit harsh(??) but definitely didn't intend it that way.. anyway, I'm finished with editing the track, imo it sounds better and that's all that matters, hehe.. been trying to reach Markus to ask if I can make it public.. it's still a hidden vid now.. ogfdMn-ofsA ;)
This track reminds me sooooo much of the S3M compositions by Purple Motion back in the 90s. I was trying to figure out why I kept listening to this and just couldn't get it out of my head... and finally realized it was nostalgia! I grew up on local BBSes, downloading the newest and hottest S3Ms and MODs (and making some of my own as well -- search for "Blood of the Chameleon trailer" to hear one of my better attempts), and this track right here just brings to mind my childhood. Captain, you rock
Holy frijoles, turns out the reason this sounds so much like a MOD/S3M... is because it actually *was* a MOD file, originally composed in 1990! Check out the Wikipedia page for Markus Kaarlonen to download the original MOD (along with other MODs he composed back then). The Rochard version sounds better, but the original MOD is pretty much the same thing. Nostalgia overload!
Mate i bought this soundtrack due to this song. It killed me for days trying to remember where it came from, then it hit me! A mate of mine demoed an old AMIGA thing to me, and the MOD file was this track!! What a cracka' of a track!! Wish i could grab a MIDI version of it to muck around with!
@Wyrdwad Yeah, I forgot where I read it, but the original song was written for some kind of music contest a long time ago. This track won the contest, and was remixed for this game. I still haven't heard the original, but I can't imagine it being as good as this version!
@happsider Oh, it's not, but it's still pretty damned good -- especially for digital music from 1990. You can download it from the Wikipedia page for Markus Kaarlonen, if you want to hear it.
Can't help it, but this song sweetly reminds me of Amiga gems of my childhood *sigh* Am I the only one thinking of Lotus Turbo Challenge right now? :)
@LSBOSS humm.. to me is more like Full Throttle vocals !! Great environment .. games are coming back, graphics, music.. now we just need good games again.. [[ ]]
Love this remix of such a classic song. I started listening to module files originally because of how awesome this song is.
