Data of Synthetic Virtue

[Kate-Z]

A cheeky non-c64 remix from me.. whilst still maintaining a link with it

I've produced a cover of Martin Galway's "Runes of Virtue" - which was a Gameboy game, and later a SNES game.

I remembered hearing this tune on Kenz's OMAHM podcast and really liking it, if finding the Gameboy instrumentation a little harsh, so I thought I'd have a go, two goes as it turned out

Oh hell yes, I LIKE!! Such a good track too. Excellent work.. The video version sits just nicely too..

Weird thing is the C64 version on your page ( and that's really such a good song too) sounds like a Rob Hubbard track?? Go figure huh? Especially around the latter 3:00 parts.. Always thought Galway songs had that certain 'feel' to them.

Either way, it's fine work..

Gotta ask though, which song came first? the c64 one or 'data of... ' because if the c64 version was a conversion, then its a damn good conversion.

Thanks

the C64 one came after the "proper" remix - after Kenz had wondered what a C64 version might sound like I know what you mean about the Hubbard thing too, I could quite nail the Galway instrumentation quite right... but then its more me than him as well

Very nice indeed Kate, a pity it's not a C64 remix as it would get high votes IMO.

What dumper said.

Well there are several of comments from people who appreciate what you did with the vocal version. Something not being mass-compatible says nothing about it's actual quality.

Kate, no matter if somebody likes your remixes or not; the quality couldn't be questioned and taste should not make up a whole review.
This remix is no exception.

Now we need somebody to port the game to the breadbin so this qualifies as a C64 remix

I downloaded them and will have a proper listen on the weekend. Thanks for sharing
