Thank you!

i have never played the game, and just discovered the original music today, but this remix is truly a wonder. obviously a masterpiece in itself, this remix is right where it needs to be.

Thanks for your comment. When I was a teenager I used to load this game up just to listen to the music (wasn't that keen on the game itself), so I wanted to create a higher sound quality version that stayed as close to the original as possible. Glad it's given you some enjoyment :)

Other Tom Follin gems to look out for are Agent X & Agent X II (spectrum), Plok (Beach level, SNES) and Spiderman & the X-Men (Gambit's stage SNES), I'll hopefully get round to remixing some of them.

The sounds we'll remember forever. Chronos & Agent X from Speccy, Cybernoid & Commando from C64, Jet Set Willy from Atari, because there are unique. Although there is a lot of very good music from Amiga and newer consoles, those mentioned were the first jawdrops, and the first time is always remembered as something magical.

Fantastic rendition... great to find other musicians who have such respect for the genius of Tim Follin.

@kenwaah those are some great tracks, especially the beach from plok. Imagine what this guy could do for a game like mass effect.....sigh.....
