Is that Commando that I hear in this tune?

Menace & Adam - Missile Test

Do my ears decieve me or not? Rob Hubbard - Commando

definitely c64, but too manipulated to say "it's commando".

Yeah, agree with DHS. It's still irritating when people use C64 stuff and don't even credit it though (or ask permission). It's like "oh, that's clever, I think I'll pretend I did it and get all the credit". Sometimes like 14-Zero-Zero it's the only clever thing in the whole track. But the overstuffed egos of the musicians concerned won't let them admit it.

Maybe it's just me but I can't even hear the C64 influence let alone Commando.

Very C64esque, I can easily hear the Commando-like stab chords (high pitched). However, I don't think it's actually from Commando.

Actually sounds more like Human Race or Chimera, actually. Commando didn't have that much ring modulation.
