10 Great C64 Tunes

I earlier released a video called Top10 Best C64 Music and felt that there was so much good music that did not fit the list so I decided to do yet another video. You could see it as an expansion of the Top10 to Top20 with these tunes occupying the spots 11-20 =) I previously released this same video with remixed versions of these great tunes. That video had some slight graphical problems that I resolved in this video, if you don't mind c64 turned into modern techno then go out and check it out too: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bI9TTikJCi8 =)

Not sure why you think Delta had no ingame music? It surely did, something based on Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon, it went for 20 minutes or something, was awesome.

@DerGraueGeist I think you mix it up with some other game? Go to c64.com, download the game and play it with an emulator to rehearse your memory ;)

the golden axe tune is the first level tune, not the title tune.

[TheCommodore64Player]

@zaphod77 It is the title track for the 8-bit versions. Here is some footage from the Spectrum version for you to see this is the case: watch?v=o0nEH9NkY5Y . It is one of the few games that is even better than the c64 version, because it has multiple enemies on screen and a 2 player option. They even done a fantastic job with the music conversion and it is even technically probably the best game music they managed to get out of the spectrum.

Golden axe on c53 is very good prrof of how graphics and music aint the most important things in a game.

[TheCommodore64Player]

Yep, "Golden Axe" proves that, but this video wasn't called 10 Great C64 Games ^^ However, music in old games were much more important to set the atmosphere than in new games. What do you remember best from the good old c64 times? The games and their playability or the music? ;)

@TheCommodore64Player you can select FX or music on main menu.

[StopSign49]

Great choices, but my favorite is still the Archer Dance from Forbidden Forest.

[Drunkensod1972]

@TheCommodore64Player .. nope... 11min in-game tune for delta, it's very slow and evolves over 10-11 minutes.. and yeah it's based off of dark side of the moon but also Phillip Glass' "Koyaanisqatsi" .. it has elements from both... the title tune for Delta more or less a direct copy of another part of that Phillip Glass tune, ableit in double tempo.

forgot about bombjack. the music ingame at 8.32 is jean michel jarre - magnetic fields part 2..... real cool...

[76MKIIDub16V]

Golden axe,the best!What a memory:)

[deethr]

Flimbos quest - awesome!! My fave Ocean Loader was the first one :) I never knew there was Golden Axe on the C64, you learn something new every day!

[naxxox]

In my humble opinion, Martin Galway is the best.

[VITRUVVII]

To me, Cybernoid I song is better than Cybernoid II. Only my opinion! =)
