What's you favorite?
A number of times I've been surprised when listening to tunes that for some or the other reason have been suggested for listening by other users of this forum. I thought that some of you would like to share some of your favourites with the rest of us. It could probably broughten our horizons and at least let people hear some tunes that haven't gotten the attention they disserve. Anyone up for it? |

There are too many SID gems to mention here. Here are just a few of my all time favorite ones.
Fred Gray, one of my fav SID composers of all time, lovely tracky by him:
"Enigma Force" - Gray is written all over it...
"Legend of Kage" - short'n nice, great sounds, great arcade conversion
"Shadowfire" - Neat
"Misson AD" - Tracks (2) & (3)
"Mutants" - Track (1) Fantastic!!!
Jozz, very talented musician who was not affraid of trying out different styles:
"Twilight beyond"
"Nightdawn" - Tracks (2) & (3) - Perfection!!
"Myth Demo" - Track (1) soo crisp...
Red:
"Think Twice III" - So sad, so beautiful
Laxity, did some excellent SID tunes, here are just a few:
"Aids Trouble"
"Beastie Boys Intro Music" - (the beginning of that tune brings back fond memories to me)
"Alibi" - Rocks!
"Tuborg" - Just wow!
"Crosswords"
Ben Daglish:
"Ark Pandora" - Tracks (1), (2) & (3) ... Sweet
"Cobra" - Very nice tune
"Trap" - This is a great piece of music. The trap demo rocked back then
Tim Follin, liked his 'hippie' style and sounds:
"Ghouls'n'Ghosts" - Tracks (1), (7) & (11) Very atmospheric, awesome sounds / fx.
"Scumball"
"Bodyslam" - Track (4)
JCH:
"Beatbassie" - I like this one.
Oliver Kläwer:
"Emerald Mind"
"Tronic" - Track (1)
Lars Hoff (Prosonix), did some great tunes too:
"Illusions" - LOVE THIS TUNE!!
Rob Hubbard:
"Monty on the Run" - title tune, one of the best Hubbard tunes evar if you ask me.
"Human Race" - all the tunes. One of the first, if not the first Hubbard music I heard.
Jeroen Tel, started the next generation of SID music.
"Cybernoid 1" - title tune, perfection....
"Hawk Eye" - title tune, neat ...
..
Martin Galway:
"Wizball" - title track, soooo nice
"Parallax" - title tune. I actually slept to this tune sometimes ;-)
Other great game tunes:
"Samurai Trilogy" - Track (1)
"Boulder Dash" - oh, the good old times..
"Wizardry"
"Mule"
"Glider Pilot"
Other favorite SID composers are: DRAX, Hein Holt, Mitch 'n Dane, _V_, Scortia and the list goes on...
Sorry about the long post, tried to keep it as short as possible...

I think he found it somewhere in the desert.. under a rock ;) .. But yes, true!.. I was thinking of the "hidden favorites" in this thread.. Never the less, Rob composed and adapted some seriously brilliant SID tunes. |

Sorry guys, my bad. I might have been distracted by the many other postings under this topic listing quite some known SIDs. Even Laxity, the topic starter, listed some tunes that I wouldn't exactly put under "UNKNOWN Gems"
Nevertheless, back to the topic.. ;-) |
