Crystal Dreamscapes

by Chris Abbott

One of the most innovative Commodore remix CDs ever created. Beautiful and inspiring, it delivers a stream of uninterrupted consciousness ideal for programming, chilling, or even soothing a child! Most tracks on this CD are based on Commodore 64 tunes, though the names of the tracks have been changed so as to enhance its universal appeal, and to avoid puncturing the delicate reality it spins. Highlights include the liquid crystalline cavern sound of Chimera (Here called "Liquid Crystal"), melancholy transforming to joy in "Trap" (here called "Dusk before Dawn"), and the ultimate joy of two Tim Follin LED Storm reworks. Priced to fulfil its spiritual mission!

Beautyfully following the original score but with just the right "real" instruments!
Thank you! :-D

 A.M.C. part 1 (orchestral remix)
Arranged by infernal season


Hello Jose A. Martin,

Are you the genuine Jose Martin who composed the original tunes for Commodore 64 and Amiga ? If true, it would be great for me, because I grew up listening to the A.M.C. tunes for Amiga. That tunes really touched me and were a deep influence in my music sense.
This remix is really cool and harmonious. But everyone has to know the original one to appreciate this.
Thank you for changing my life.

Tankscore.
