The Kickstarter campaign of Wings of Death - Reworked Anthology
by the German Remix Group is live as of today and is accepting pledges, with €1287 of the original €6500 goal already pledged with 29 days still to go. As a reminder, the finished product will be available not only as a digital download, but also on physical media: as a double CD, and as a limited-edition Best of

Matt Gray: Central Park Main Theme (LN2) (R5 Version)
The second album from Matt Gray's Reformation 5
project is most definitely in the works as evidenced by another track he posted from the upcoming Last Ninja 2
album. Earlier this year we got a single featuring the main theme from The Sewers level, and today we got a single with Central Park Main Theme.
A Quick Q&A with the German Remix Group
The German Remix Group (GRG) has recently announced that on April 22nd, 2026 they will launch a Kickstarter campaign for the creation of a physical album dedicated to Jochen Hippel's soundtrack of the Amiga game 'Wings of Death'. Although this group has been publishing remix albums since 2012 - all of which have been available for free on their website - not everybody may be familiar with them, so I thought I would make them sit down and answer a few questions to introduce themselves and their new campaign to the readers of Remix64.com. You can read my interview with them at the link below.
