Excellent piano version of the various tunes in the game.
Arne shouts:
Great remake from a great original, but the only thing is that's a bit too slow for my taste - but great with so much dynamic!

This requires a much better sounding piano, because the arrangement is terrific and your playing technique is spotless! What a fantastic mood it creates, perfectly mirroring the original game's dark tones! I am really astonished how good this is, and I appreciate all your work that went into creating it.

Forbidden Forest was one of the first games I had on the C64, the game was basic but very playable and one of if not the first to include gory effects. However it was the soundtrack that gave it is true atmosphere and here soundsosound have have given it true gravity by rearranging it excellently for the piano. It brought back strong memories of being terrified and terrorised by spiders, dragons and those damn skeletons! Its nice to hear classic classic c64 tunes remixed without them becoming over technical and synthesized. Well done.
