Re: Coolest Computermusic: Games etc.

@Scarface: Hehehehe, you are right. In those days we spent more time in Coding (Assembler 4 sure), Cracking ;-) , Trading and driving to Venlo or Radwar Meetings. smile It was a very adventurous pioneer time. My favourite Computers were: SX 64, Amiga 500 / 1000 and the Acorn Archimedes (brilliant machine and kewl to code).  Nowadayz I use the Power64 Emulator on the Macintosh and YouTube to travell back into time .... smile  Thanx Scarface for your ruling Time-Machine Threads!

e-control: yeah, katakis was a blast ... smile just have a look at r-type or parodius ;-)

Cool Beatz ... Volume pleaz and dont 4get to sync the Strobos .... smile

Re: Coolest Computermusic: Games etc.

there are quite a few ones i like:

really strong final part in this sonic arranger tune, unfortunately cut off in the skid row video

another great one is "visor synth" from a skid row intro.

and a few more tunes by romeo knight, especially "megafoe", which in my opinion was ahead of it's time...

My friends and me just did a short Jump`N`Run Game and a spaced out Text-Adventure which were never released to the public. Most of the time we did some scene related code and things ages ago. Platforms: C64, Amiga, Archimedes. smile

the track off the first stage of Streets of Rage 2 still gets my hair on my neck standing up:

I've heard the riff being used a few times in some house tracks played in a club.

(I think this youtube vid sounds different due to emulation maybe?)

Game where the music is affected by playing the game; "Rez":

Re: Coolest Computermusic: Games etc.

@biotek
Ben Daglish? Did he do a lot of games? Just the music or the whole game? That Death Wish 3 combined with the movietrailer is coolio.

Another spinoff game Miami Vice: this one is almost minimal:

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGKt2vV_4zQ[/youtube]

There's whole bunch of C64-sid music on youtube (vol. 1 to 7): even Fred Vom Jupiter (the C64 gabber-remixes) and Living On Video (that one pretty cool!) smile
