Zak Mc Kracken Sid Remake

Post by bosone »

this tune was written using ONLY one Commodore 64 SID synth built according to Torsten Klose's schematics found on http://www.ucapps.de
my goal was to rewrite the music of one of the best adventure game ever made: Zak mc Kracken and the Alien Mindbenders, originally appeared for C=64
All the sounds you hear in this tune are produced by only one SID synth, including the drums. they were overdubbed in cakewalk, and then i applied some effects from my Creamware Pulsar board.
i'm still not satisfied with this result, i'm thinking about adding something to the arrangement, which is very close to the original for now!

Hi bosone, I like this remix. It works well, the drums are nice and as you say it is close to the original. Perhaps you can add some more tracks to "fill out" the sound a bit more, and maybe change the main violin-style voice a little?

Keep up the good work!

thanks for your reply!
you centered the problem: i'd like to "fill" the sound more, with some other track/instrument/arrangement, but for now i have no ideas! i downloaded many other zak remixes, just to know how are working other people!
