Release: Family (Hard'n Heavy)

Post by LMan »

This is a remix of the title music from the game "Hard 'n Heavy". The original was composed by Chris Hülsbeck. I dedicate this remix to all my family, but especially to my loving wife Natascha, and to our twin sons Luca and Noah, who sadly never lived to see the light of the day. We'll always remember you! :cry:

Not only to us, but to several other community members, the recent times have been sad and troubled. In such times, the importance of family gets more obvious than ever. I think a sense of family unity is something the world's civilised cultures have to desperately learn again. It opens your heart for other people's needs, and helps you get through hard times.

But now for the music! :)

Download the tune here:

I hope you enjoy it.

Have a nice day,

- Markus :)

Just sneaked in to say I fully agree to your words, Markus.


PS: Very emotional piece of music. Just listening to it some times.

Nice piece! The drums are a bit 80'ies, Top Gun was the first that came to my mind when listening!

Well done!

great piano work at the start... it has a beautiful set sound.. very rich very vibrant and alive really emotive, im having to find the original to get to see what you was working with.

it has a real end of a film quality to it, the good guy's walked out of the firey warehouse where he just dropped a car on the bad guys head or something.. and his wife is standing looking lost shouting his name.. and they set eyes on each other.. screen drops to widescreen they stand close together and embrace in a loving manner as the credits role.

there is some wonderful guitar near the end of this tune too that i REALLY like.. and i love the creshendo effect, a nice build with the guitar and sploosh! back down again.. so very 80's so very ^^^ above hehe.

someone made a comment about the drums.. i think they fit 100 percent perfect in what is being done here, this is a wonderful tune and very faithfull to the original sid... absolutely great markus :-).

and i tip my hat at what its dedicated too... a just and true cause.
family.. love.. and health all you need in this life people.
