Ok time for some I doubt anyone else is likely to post.



Gotta give some love to the Amstrad cpc here
Great title screen music on a very good conversion generally.



OK this one is probably quite well known because the game featured in one of the Angry Video game Nerd's videos. But he fails to talk about the music.
It's amazing how just adding a little pitch shift to the bass in time to the noise channel's drum can make such a huge impact on the music.

You're all missing out if you've not heard the soundtracks to Croc: Legend of the Gobbos and Croc 2.

andy is doing it right (like always)

Here is the thing I was trying to point out:

If you play Grim Fandango (which I LOVE! I got the sound track and I tend to listen to it. I tend to listen to a lot of Lucas Sound Tracks, great work. Just interesting to hear "real" versions of songs and then the midi versions) people will ask: What's that song?

While if you play Mega Man to them they will be like: Oh nice what GAME is that?

you can tell this song is a VIDEO GAME SONG. it was used in a game. while modern songs are written for games and they are all wonderful and nice they just have this GREAT SONG FEELING but not "video game" feeling. the "retro" is missing.

I hope you understand that. Also WTF do you want from me and talking about me being a film editor, MR FENN?

And while we are at it LETS JUST DO THIS for the sake of it and proving I'm not a dick about it:

Ah Sketchy, Zeliard has always been my #1 influence.
But I agree, the music stands removed from the instrument;

The music stands removed from the instrument, that is, until you need some degree of fidelity to arrangement, dynamics, timbre.



The first line of this song is "so come right in, and sit down beside the fire..."

Easily one of the most memorable songs from my youth.



And an additional favourite track from the game:


The same tune has a reprise as the end-level tune, but changed in fourths:

Then I hope you'd like this one too!

I miss the good ol' 90's-LucasArts, before they went strawberries.

I think this rocks so I posted it. The footage is from the Nes version of Robocop 3 but the music is from the C64 version.

It'll probably piss of MasterM but, here we go:

Great song to end the first game, imo!
