I've updated the wikipedia entry, added lots of missing C64 titles he made music for

Cheers for this!

Another C64 legend gone :-(

I was lucky and privileged to have met Ben several times at retro events. I got to call him a friend, after admiring his music for years.

Rest in peace Ben.

Very sad to hear the news. Ben left a significant positive impact with his contributions to the c64 and music. His legacy will remain with us however and that is timeless regardless of his departure.

What a loss.
I had this great lifetime opportunity to meet him in person talk to for few minutes. Chatting about old times when he create these great tunes...
What a great guy, What a great artist.

RIP Master

I went to a couple of retro events that were mostly filled with men (always men!) sat awkwardly around tables, not interacting very much. Ben was the guy who would stand at the front and get everyone on their feet dancing! He was a really fun guy, with great personality, and of course a talented musician.

Sad to hear the news.
