A sid tune that still seems to be missing in the HVsid collection that I've often looked for is the title theme from a demo by the group OFFENCE. The demo had a precalculated OFF! logo semispinning. Of more note was the SID tune with samples with a very clever sliding panflute type instrument among...

... I did not think were actually possible - I knew that it was possible to to some clever tricks of your were playing back sample loops only etc - but not 2 channels of independant sample playback! Sure is. Try some of Mark Wilson's if you don't believe me, especially Xenomorph and the intro tune ...

Just in case you haven't already had a peek at this yet, Ben last year joined a band that does blues shows and Jethro Tull tribute concerts (which means that flute of his gets some mileage, and that's an understatement). The band is called Cold Flame, and have a peek at their website to download som...

Apart from "Black Rollins band", how do you think this one should be done justice to? For me: the first part's gotta keep the punchy feel but maybe use some rock/metal inspiration for guitars er al. The second bit's got to come in and either be really dreamy ambient trance, or more rock a...

I personally enjoyed this one. If Reyn hadn't have already done such a good job with it, this would have been the best mix of it. As it is, it pushes Reyn very very close indeed. It's really nice and catchy with a lead that sounds very very like the C64 version (nice synth work if it's not a C64!). ...

Thanks to everyone for putting their point across. I thought I'd better clear some things up from Infamous' post. as long as the conceived idea is something that breaks away from being your average stereotypical boyband/sash/trance artist of your choice style bullcrap Indeed. That's why my music col...

But this is starting to seem as if Markus & Pex actually owed the desired ultimate cover of "Sweet" to the world. Hopefully not from me. They owe nothing to no one. How they wish to do things is their own choice. Whether I like it or not is my choice. I usually give a pretty good reas...

I'd like to add: If you want to please wazzaw, that is. If you want to please me, do whatever YOU like to do. I don't want to stop creative forces, Mahoney. I can even remember your C64 SID output with some fond memories back in the day, and some of those were purely for lots and lots of fun. Indee...

Folks, I'd like to start this post off by saying that from my own personal point of view, I agree completely with LaLa with respect to the Sweet remix. The orchestral parts are all very well, and would for me have made a great remix alone as it showed some really nice ideas. However, there are some ...

A little short Hello from me,and i´m happy to see,there are still sum guys left ,who care bout good Music. Welcome aboard. In case some of you don't know who he is, he was quite an accomplished C64 musician in the mid-90s, going first under the handle of Ragman and then Echo. Check out his tunes...

WTF dude? Are you saying the game was first made on Amiga? It's a fact. It first appeared on the Amiga in 1986 with the C64 conversion a year later. Also see: http://www.cinemaware.com/robinhood_main.asp This is from the programmers Cinemaware themselves, who've also done the new PC version Neil wa...

The main theme tune is kinda remixed orchestrally from the c64 version Actually, as the C64 version of the DoTC theme is based on the Amiga one, more likely it is covering Jim Cuomo's Amiga classic original. Nonetheless, having heard it on that PC game, it's poor. Very poor indeed, as Vic Reeves mi...

So, did Dave settle for a flat fee, or a cut of the earnings? If the former, he may have missed out - Superbowl fees can be huge. Flat fee as far as I'm aware. Something like £8k. Yes, that low. Chris will know the real figure, I'm sure. Oh, and it's "take me out to the ballgame" that ...
