  • Glad you liked it, a friend put me into these comments.. I remember changing the key to my own favourite because it made it easier for me to play. I just quantized the fast bits.

    This remix was done back in 1996! Using just a jv1080.

  • never heard VGM in 7/8 time signature before!

  • @plaguebeastable Oh yes indeed, Follin loves mixing up the time signatures. Check out the Plok Beach level for more 7/8 goodness!

  • this is not normal anymore!!! one of the greatest ever :D

  • How about that tune when u die, and all the zits pop? That was good too. Haven't seen it on here at all. Be great to hear that again. If anyone is reading this, and can upload it. I would be grateful! -:)

  • How can any one dislike this? It's total genius! The person who dislikes this should f off and listen to some of the s*** of today! lol.

  • i had this on the amstrad an the sound track was very much the same . an amazing track that should have been made into a single.

  • Amazing tune this - thanks for sharing.

  • god i remember this game, i was so addicted, this music is amazing!

  • The music from this game laid the foundation for my music tastes today when I was 4 years old playing this game. So epic!

  • Good job for putting this up, one of my favourites from Mr. Follin. =) I was just thinking about uploading it myself when I found your vid.

  • Great music! There is also a quality remix of this tune by Tim Forsyth - highly recommend.

  • Might seem an odd tune to say it about but for me this is one of the C64 tunes I remember the most - such a good tune!

  • im trying to find the cpc version since that was the version I had. It sounded a little different to this and the cpc version in my head is better. But probably just nostalgia since the c64 nearly always had better music!

  • @sasfcps

    hiya

    i know where you're coming from , i had it on my trusty ole cpc6128 back in the day an fell in love with the soundtrack. i think it at least equals the c64 version if not betters it but then again i may just be biased. i've searched everywhere seeing if anyones uploaded it but alas all in vain. i live in hope.

  • I LOVE this tune!

    I emailed Tim a few years ago - apparently he'd forgotten he even did it until I reminded him.

    There are a couple of good remixes of this tune, the best one IMO is by Jogeir Liljedahl from a CD called "Back In Time 3".

    Anyone remember Tim's Agent X music for the Spectrum? He somehow got a 1-channel beeper to sound like a proper pop band! Incredible.

    The in-game tune was really distinctive, too. Eerie and echoey, like a glass harmonica. I wonder if that was Tim's intention?

  • @GrandDizzy Mordi made a great version too

  • @GrandDizzy

    My own favourite remix is Tim Forsyth's version, which can be found at remix.kwed.org.

  • @brotheredward06 Yes, Tim Forsyth’s version is great—notable because it’s in a different key to the original and a bit longer. There’s also Mordi’s remix (on remix.kewd.org) which I think has punchier lead and drums, although it fizzles out too early at the end. For me, the Liljedahl version is by far the greatest remix, both in terms of rhythm and production. Spectrum fans should also check out an AY remix of the tune by a chiptune band called AY Riders.

  • This tune is great. There is one more C64 tune I really like, but I can't find it anywhere. I had IK+ on cassette. And the load music was awesome! But I can only find the ingame music.

  • As naff as it may seem, that takes me back about 20 years!!

    Video games have come a long way since, although I would love the C64 back again for nostalgia sake.

  • theres nothing naff about it, takes me back 20 years too, great music, brilliant sounds
