Ordinary World

I managed to find a free hour or two to knock up this fast-paced chiptrance cover of Duran Duran’s 1992 classic, Ordinary World. 1992 was a good year – A1200 was released too! Stay tuned for a huge big sack of tiny little Amiga chippies I’ve been churning out lately, and some extremely old ones that have been dusted off.

Wordup!

A couple of months ago, I composed the soundtrack to Wordup! – a fantastic and addictive Nintendo DS game coded by the brilliant Superpanic, which can be downloaded for free here. It’ll run on NDS hardware, if you have a linker cart or Supercard or whatever, or just in Windows with NO$GBA if you’re a cheapskate.

You can find the Intro, Level and Game Over tunes in the music section. The mp3s are recorded with a bit of stereo mixing, as heard on the NDS, rather than Amiga-style 100% panning.

Freedom

I didn’t even need to be asked to do this one :) Some years ago, Scooter covered the tune ‘Freedom’ from Turrican 2 and released it as Level One. This is my reinterpretation of that, in an effort to squeeze some incredibly trancey sounds out of HivelyTracker. Needless to say, Hively came up with the goods (check the music section).
