Thalamusic by Rob Hubbard (Sanxion Loader C-64)

This song is ripped from an old music cassette from the late 80´s (~ 1986-1987) The cassette came as a free bonus with a computer magazine and contained some c-64 gamedemos and this tune. I Don´t know if its Rob himself that recorded this song for this bonus cassette. ENJOY!

I remember getting this on a covertape with ZZap but not realising it was an audio track. I kept getting my C64 to load it to no avail but when I finally realised.... wow - mind = blown! Thanks so much for uploading this!!!! Brings back so many great memories. What a tune.

Jesus! This is this the version of the Sanxion music released on a B-side cassette from a C64 mag showing off the sound system of the Fairlight, no?

I think this is - i've been looking for this for ages!!

Thankyou uploader!

My cassette of this is probably covered in mould or subsequentially deteriorated by magnetic interferrence!!

Cheers!!

Thanks so much for uploading this. Brings back great memories of buying Zzap 64! magazine and listening to the covertape endlessly and mesmerised by Rob Hubbard's Fairlight skills!

@TheSacredTurf Me, too! I played it on one of those old cassette players and it fucking rocked!

This music is so good they should have put it in a sci-fi movie.

This sounds quite a lot like Billy Currie's instrumental solo work from Ultravox

This is indeed Rob Hubbard using his home studio. I remember reading the interview where this was mentioned. I also remember being flabbergasted to hear something of Hubbards that wasn't C64-related.

The tape was actually from Zzap #26, which was released somewhere around May 1987.
