Matt Gray: LN2 (R5) Now Available for Pre-Order

Markus Siebold 1969-2026
We have just learned that Markus Siebold — musician, SID composer, and remixer — has recently passed away at the age of 57. He is best known for creating music for the game Turrican II: The Final Fight on the C64, alongside numerous other SID tunes throughout the late 80s and early 90s. Over the years, he shared his own remakes of that iconic soundtrack here on Remix64, along with several other remixes. We are deeply saddened by his loss and we extend our heartfelt sympathies to his family, to his friends, and to everyone touched by his life and his music.
Matt Gray: Green Beret Main Theme (R5 Version)
Another track from Matt Gray's Reformation 5 dropped today:
Matt Gray: This time it's one of the remakes for the main R5 album and an all time favourite C64 tune Green Beret Title/Main Theme by the maestro Martin Galway. I must have re started on this track half a dozen times over the last couple of years and I finally found a blend of SID elements and new parts that I really like.
I can still remember the Saturday afternoon in the summer of 1986 that I bought this game and rushed home to load it up and check out what Mr G had conjured up. The loading music was excellent but this title theme blew me away at the time.
Hopefully you all feel much the same when you hear this new version.

Cauldron II (the Pumpkin Rides again)
Arranged by A0d+BST+Tron
The concept is very good, and it's well applied. I suppose the tune may go on a bit and tends to get very boring after a while. More variety and changes of directions would have helped somewhat.
The tune will certainly feel at home in a nightclub and would do well at a up and coming bitlive event.
Good effort, more variety needed tho.

Green Delta Sisters (feat. Thanatos)
Arranged by Eivind Sommersten
Love this one. I hope if there's ever a remake to some space - green beret mutant of Gianna Sisters game, this will be its main theme.
