My first c64 remix.... So far

Post by buzzard »

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, I looked at Cubase and a couple of other packages and realised that my attention span was roughly that of a single celled organism - thus preventing me from continuing.

However, as MED is now available for the PC with VST support, I thought I'd give it a go and see what came out.

I still listen to the original SID version of R-type and thought I'd see what I could do to update it - here's what I've come up with so far.

And remember.... I'm new, so be gentle :D

This is really nice and an interesting approach. Very nice beginning later on its not that good some instruments dont fit. Thumbs up for your first remix. :)

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.
