There's a possibility that Benn and I will do an acoustic set at Retrovision in February.

So, what SID's would work well as guitar and fiddle.

We'll do Deflektor, Paperboy and Rasputin I'm sure, but have you got any ideas as to what other tracks would transfer to this format?

dunno if you've heard remix64 v2, but there's a rather nifty Violin/guitar accoustic sound on parallax Highscore on there, it's probably a bit dark for most people tastes, but a brighter version might work well.

One thing it did prove that parallax highscore does work nicely with violin

1) Nah, haven't heard it
2) Why the hell wasn't I asked to play it :?

Will get Chris to send me a copy of the track

Thanks :)

The 3 Outrun Musics should be good, Stormlord's main theme, Delta, Hawkeye, Hunters Moon, 180 Darts, Cybernoid would sound SO good on Violin with a guitar bassline. Push the boat out a little further and try Nemesis and or Salamander.

Anything with parallax will suit me down to the ground.

/Daglish_Ben/Firelord.sid subtune #1 (fiddler solo at the start)
/GAMES/G-L/Glider_Pilot.sid (check out JCH's cover also)
/Gray_Fred/Fox_Fights_Back.sid subtune #2 (manic fun, and I love Fred's tunes)
/Gray_Fred/ShadowFire.sid subtune #2
/Grieve_Nigel/Starglider.sid subtune #1
/VARIOUS/A-F/Blues_Muz/Herning_93.sid
/VARIOUS/A-F/Fanta/Madalena.sid
/VARIOUS/G-L/Gaston/Summerday.sid
/VARIOUS/G-L/Hannula_Antti/Frazze.sid

hehe, simple reason i didn't know you when this CD was started. Although the CD is now nearly 1 year old, it started production about 2.5 years ago ;)

Guitar and fiddle ?

/Hubbard_Rob/Final_Synth_Sample_I.sid #1
/Hubbard_Rob/Final_Synth_Sample_I.sid #2
/Hubbard_Rob/Final_Synth_Sample_I.sid #6
/Hubbard_Rob/Final_Synth_Sample_I.sid #7

/Hubbard_Rob/Final_Synth_Sample_II.sid #1 maybe too speedy.. ?

/Hubbard_Rob/Formula_1_Simulator.sid #1 worth a shot

/Tel_Jeroen/Classic_Piece.sid - I think this one could be really great!

Well... hard to decide..

Phil Bak did a SUPERB flute and guitar version of Monty on the Run's High Score theme. That would be aces. :)

Loco
Thing on a Spring
Revenge of the Mutant Camels

Black Lamp subtune 1 would be good with a folksy guitar strumming backing a la that song where that man wants to go inside somebody's head (yes they do).

The Amiga version of the Led Storm music (can just see you playing this on your violin).
