- Zool
(Rock'n'Zool)
A fast and energic tune, just like the game
it was in. This is clearly influenced by the heavy-metal bands of the eighties, like Iron Maiden or Saxons,
specially the british ones. It was also during this period that the Amiga began to show it could almost
perfectly render the sound of instruments like drums or distorted guitars. Musicians working for british
studios like Gremlin Graphics or Core Design were then really into it.

- Double
Dragon (Medley)
The Double Dragon musics mixed incredibly
well heavy-metal riffing with the typical funk usually heard in the Shaw Brothers movies, both style matching
the somewhat bizarre ambiance of the game. Every theme was perfect, but this medley only contains the
level 1, level 2 and attract mode tunes.

- The
Legend of Zelda (Kakariko Village)
A cheesy but efficient tune that comes with
every Zelda game, with slight changes in the melody, but generally the same chord progression. This version
is base on the theme you could hear in A Link to the Past.

- Hybris
(Ingame)
This Amiga shooting icon taught us that
the concept of groove can be as important in a video game as it is in popular music, with this tune that
fitted the action so well that it wasn't a problem to hear it, and nothing else, during the entire game.
This was also one of the first Amiga music to give this computer some kind of musical identity (notes
: keyboard themes are played by hand).

Set Willy (Atari 8-bits - Ingame)
Out of the countless versions of Jet Set
Willy, only the one for Atari 400/800 featured this Rob Hubbard tune, wich is full of variations. Only
a part of them were kept for this remix, for it not to last more than 4mn and bore if listened while not

- Conker's
Bad Fur Day (Windy)
In the game, this theme appears several
times, converted to different styles : creole, blue-grass... This version puts the emphasis on electric
guitar, wich wasn't done before. The intro covers Funeral March for Queen Mary, composed by Henry
Purcell in 1695, a classic used for Stanley Kubrick's A Clockwork Orange opening shot, wich is
reproduced in the beginning of Conker's Bad Fur Day.

- The
Great Gianna Sisters - Level 1
When a copycat is really inspired, it can
result in something like Great Gianna Sisters, a fac-simile of Super Mario Bros for the C64 and the Amiga/ST
that managed to make Nintendo react, maybe because it was a really good game. The main ingame-theme proved
that Chris Huelsbeck could astonishly well adapt to any game genre, without ever losing the melodic style
that made his signature instantly recognizable

This jazzy theme taken from Super Mario

guitar in the lead parts.

- Sonic
Chaos (Final Boss)
A final bossfight is generally a moment
of culminating stress. The more it puts the player's nerves to the test, the more relieved the latter
will feel after victory, wich is inevitable because you can't give up at such an advanced stage! The strange
and detuned feeling of this tune should so be considered as deliberated. Sometimes, video game music's
like that..

The game was an instant classic, its music

- Xenon
2 (Megablast)
A cult-game needs a cult-music. This energic
and nicely repetitive theme wich permanently illustrates Xenon 2 (the only shooting game ever where you
can scratch the scrolling like a DJ) was a cover of the song "Megablast" recorded in 1987 by
Bomb the Bass (i.e. Tim Simenon), rearranged for the game by the inevitable David Whitaker as a MOD wich
was pretty close to the original. Note that the main theme of this song comes from the film Assault
on precinct 13 directed by John Carpenter (who also wrote the music).

For many of us, gaming on a PC began hearing this music. A fast and excessive riff that perfectly matches

- Shenmue
To reach the status of video game history's cornerstone it clearly aimed at, the Shenmue trilogy (yes,
it's a pity, I know...) needed at least one outstanding musical theme. This one achieved this beyond every
expectation.

Chuck Rock
This hilarious platform game was an ode to good taste : you could kill enemies with your belly! It also
contained a brillant music, inspired by heavy-rock bands of the seventies (it's quite similar to Buck's
Boogie by Blue Oyster Cült), wich sounded much better on Amiga than on SNES.

Mach Rider
A classic arcade game that was also available for the NES, typical of what Nintendo did before focusing
on Shigeru Miyamoto's concepts. Mach Rider is a game where you race with a bike and shoot you opponents.
The music is ambitious, but it's impossible to determin exactly who composed it.

Bobble
This is the typical 80's arcade-resort ambient music. A tune that's as obsessionnal as the item collecting
during the game that featured it.

- Outrun
- Magical Sound Shower
To hear this very eighties theme while playing Sega's mega-hit, you had to steer left when
the game asked you to chose a music, when the car-radio appeared on the screen. The song is quite long
because it was supposed to last all the game long even if the player reached the end of the course.

Very well composed, this musical vision of the Pac-Man universe diserved a guitar oriented

- Young
Merlin - Labyrinth Theme
Young Merlin is an adventure game for the SNES, with very cute and funny graphics. This is no impressive
game at first look, but if you spare it some time you'll discover a captivating challenge. This nice medieval
theme plays while the player tries to find his way in a vegetal maze, full of intricate puzzles. You had
some time to listen to it, and love it. This version is played on electric guitar.

- High Score Theme
One of the most lovable game of the C64 era. The Amiga version had some music by the Maniacs of Noise.
This is the high-score theme, rarely remixed (remixers generally prefer to work on the intro theme)

- Intro Theme
This Arkanoid clone looked like an Amiga although it was developed for the PC by Michael P. Welch and
the late Seulas McNally. It's one of the most popular shareware of its time. When the game starts, you
can hear this music while the various bonuses of the game are shown. It was originally a public domain
MOD, and the author isn't credited.
