Re: Crystal Rain wip

I'm thinking it's too much atmosphere, too little music. It lingers a bit too much. You're right about it being atmospheric - I'd expect this to acccompany a scene in a film where the husband comes home and finds his wife slaughtered - you see him pick her up and scream in anguish "WHY" b...

Re: Soundcard recommendation ???

I have a Creative X-Fi, however it's hard to recommend after they decided to change the midi connectors to mini din - you get the cables included but if you lose or damage one, they don't sell replacements separately. Why deviate from the standard 5 pin din anyway???? The Asus Xonar Essence STX PCI-...

Body Blows - Team 17

Ever since I discovered Remix64 and have listened to very little else, One track I've never seen or heard remixed was Alistair Brimble's Body Blows from Team 17. I loved the original and thought it was one of, if not the best Amiga game soundtrack. I've remixed it using the one and only MED Sound St...

Re: Anyone know this tune? I'm desperate now!

Can't help identifying ti personally' however if it's commercial, the Shazam app on the iphone may help.

I had an 8 second sample (in 8-bit) I used in the early 90's and someone used the app and it came back correct.

Happy hunting!

Re: Turrican II - Stage 1 (Powerup Remix) Work in progress...

Hugely nostalgic feel about this track - I almost expected the 'Kids from FAME' to leap onto my screen (you have to be at least 35 to understand) and it certainly captures the sound of that era.

I particularly like the uplifting section around 2:20 as it presents a more modern feel.

Re: My first c64 remix.... So far

Thanks for the feedback - I listened to it in the car a few times and noticed this also.
I tried to keep the instrument for the base line close to the original too, but it can barely be heard.

I shall do some tweaking over the next few days.

My first c64 remix.... So far

Hi all, Since I discovered the site, I've pretty much listened to nothing else but c64 and Amiga remixes for the past couple of years. I used to dabble a fair bit with Octamed in the Amiga days (about 15 years have passed since I last wrote anything musical) and after being forced into PC ownership,...

Old c64/amiga game footage needed

I'm looking to put together a video similar to the good old Kefrens, LSD, Red sector type demos from years gone by. I have the music all ready (one of this sites amazing offerings) but need to find footage of the real classics, like Ninja, Gianna, rtype etc. It's intended to be both a retro trip for...

Arturias moog modular V

Has anyone got this quite marvellous virtual synth? Audiomidi.com are doing it for $225 from $329. Having not done anything much musicwise for 10 years (since my beloved amiga), I began craving for the old days wheree I'd stay up for days just to perfect some piano sequence in octamed. After discove...

configuring sidamp

Hey all, I read ifamouses' post on sidamp in winamp, but I can't for the life of me get it to work. I'm trying to save each channel to disk as a .wav, but when using the mixer, it won't split the channels. I'm using winamp5. The mixer has no effect whatever I do Also, I cant configure sidamp to play...
