The Demoscenic Route - A C64 & Amiga Remix Album.
Oh look - it's another remix album!
This time, I'm happy to present ten remixes originating from both the Commodore 64 and the Amiga demoscene! Woot! 😃
However, since this remix album is dedicated to the demoscene, you won't find any game music remixes or commercial music covers in here. All the remixes are (as far as I know) based on strictly non-commercial original tunes from demos, intros, cracktros, etc.
The focus is less common and/or lesser known tunes, the music styles vary somewhat but remain in the electronic music genre, and the overall mood of this album ranges from mellow to upbeat bouncy, whereas a minimal amount of creative liberties were taken during the remixing process since I mainly wanted to upscale and extend the original music.
Also worth mentioning is that the first half of the album (tracks 1 to 5) is all C64 remixes, while the second half (tracks 6 to 10) is all Amiga remixes.
And yes, this is a totally free digital album!
It can easily be downloaded from the links below.
Enjoy!

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.
RetroGamingMusic + Linus LFT Åkesson Premiere!

Back In Time 4 - Sidventure
by Chris Abbott
Welcome to Back in Time 4: Sidventure, part of the 8-Bit Symphony series of projects. It’s a series of symphonic tales, told with passion.
I planned Back in Time 4, 5 and 6 two decades ago to take over from where Back in Time 3 left off. It was always planned that they’d be largely symphonic, but it took a while (and many twists and turns) for reality to catch up.
This series of CDs contains computer-based performances of arrangements from the 8-Bit Symphony project. I used mostly VSTs from Orchestral Tools with additional libraries from Spitfire Audio, 8Dio, Impact Soundworks and Embertone. These were all integrated into Sibelius, and the scores were then marked up for realism (this is where the art comes in!). After that, they were output into Cubase where they were timing-corrected, enhanced with light reverb, mixed, and then rendered. The CD was co-produced by Kenneth Slaygon
Mutka who worked closely on this project since its inception, and without whom it wouldn’t exist. Many of the production ideas are his.
Arrangements were created by myself, Rob Hubbard, Gari Biasillo, Alisdair J. Pickering, Ben Daglish, Paul Norman, Peter Connelly, Julian Breeze, Alistair Boz
Bowness, Marcel Donné. They were orchestrated by Rob, Alisdair and 8-Bit Symphony conductor Robin Tate.
Big thanks to Back in Time Symphonic Collection
Kickstarter backers for their patience!
This project is of course dedicated to the memories of Ben Daglish and Richard Joseph. They would have got a kick out of all this.
Outer Space (Spaceboost Remix)
Arranged by Sonic Wanderer
I especially love the lovely female voice, it makes it even more better for me! OK, so someone gonna try and do a conversion of my Turbo-Charge Fastlane theme? Or, do I have to do it myself?
