What I'm trying to do is to produce my c64 games tracks using not just the SID as a synth but any instrument that given the chance to I would have used when I originally composed them for SID I find it fascinating to hear what's being discussed on this thread, and really gets me into this project e...

I think, Waz those are some good points and I think it's probably best to eliminate the term "Re-Mix" from my project. For me that term has taken on new meaning over the years. When it first emerged in the record industry it was literally referring to the balance of the mix and arrangement...

Comic Bakery is a classic and there's a great remix by Reyn Ouwehand from early 2000's that for me shows the track off how it was probably intended if the sounds and technology had been available to put it in the original game. With my project I want to reproduce the tracks as perhaps I might have n...

I've started preliminary work on some of the Last Ninja 2 tracks with a view to put one of them on line as a taster for the boxset project. It'll be interesting to know what LN2 track people would be eager to hear first ? Hi Matt, I was always most impressed with “The Basement In-Game” – the atmosp...

That's the conundrum. I'm doing prep on various tracks. I've got a good remake/remix of the Central Park loader on the go....

Picking the fav LN2 tune is pretty damn hard as I love all the tracks for a reason or two. I would say a different fav depending on actual mood I think. Maybe if I should pick jut one track it would be the Central Park ingame for the reason that most probably this one had the biggest impact, theref...

TNT - Hopefully the Kickstarter will be in the near future,but we need to get the kettle boiling a bit first. I'm obviously still discussing progress here,but if anyone wants to follow the chat on Twitter then here it is https://twitter.com/mattgrayc64

Registered, too, just for the occasion. :) I'm a great fan of Matt Gray's music and I also wondered why. While e.g. Rob Hubbard creates great tunes as in the melody, the instruments sound mostly synthetic. (Yeah, yeah, what do you expect from a synthesizer?!) However, look at the great difference b...

Greetings Matt, from Matt Gray in the USA. Glad to have discovered your post here. I'd like to say that you have some of the best, most enthusiastic fans I've seen anywhere! I've had some inquiries in the past, folks thrilled to have found you, only to be crushed that it's not. I'd be happy to poin...

Good afternoon Mr. Gray! If you have a facebook account and would like to make your way over to here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/compunetcorner/ there a quite a few names you will recognise who would be only too happy to say hello :) Steve Hi Steve. I'd love to make my way over but unfortunate...

Hi Jeroen Thanks for the support and the anecdote. Always nice to hear when another musician pricks up their ears to your work. Sounds like you had the same "problem" I had as a youngster - having your Dad's recording studio in your home. Mine was under my bedroom for 4 years. A lot of met...

Thanks TNT. Don't worry all the Ninja 2 tracks will be in there. It's just a question of how big the project can be within the budget. That's why I'm starting the ball rolling now with the promotion side. Glad you've had so much joy out of the Ninja 2 soundtrack.

Thanks Dr also.

Thanks Mr Woodward Have you pledged on some non delivered Kickstarter projects then?
