"Immortal 4" album producers looking for talented arrangers

Immortal 4 preview

Jan Zottmann, executive producer of the acclaimed Immortal series of CDs featuring arranged music from games released for the Commodore Amiga, and composer Jolyon Myers are looking for a talented arranger to work on a CD version of the music from the Amiga version of Final Fight. The game was more or less a direct conversion of Capcom's arcade classic, but it featured an entirely different score written by Myers. You can download this music from or listen to it on Youtube.

Jan says: This is your chance to become a member of the ‘Immortal’ team and publish your arrangement of ‘Final Fight’ on an album that features musicians such as Chris Huelsbeck, Andrew Barnabas, Allister Brimble, and many others. Participating artists are free to choose the style of the arrangement on their own, the final track should have a running time of at least 4 minutes though. Demos should be submitted in mp3 format to jzottmann(at)synsoniq.com no later than August 31. Jolyon Myers will personally select the best entry (and eventually give some input for the production of the final version which has to be submitted late September / early October 2009). Runner-ups will receive a credit in the CD booklet as well as a free copy of the Immortal 4 album. There will also be an opportunity to present these arrangements on the AmigaRemix platform.

Jolyon says: It's an honor that the Final Fight theme has been chosen for placement on the latest ’Immortal’ CD as Jan has always brought together really talented musicians to re-create fantastic blasts from the past in a new and innovative way. I can’t wait to hear what you guys do with this track and hopefully it will be you that gets your remix on the disc!
