Thanks to Pr1mus from #Slayradio to help me to find the original composer.
The first time I heard this cuttie it was on my Amiga, but this tune has also been ported to YM and MOD.
Originaly composed on C64 by Future Freax and often used in Atari ST, Amiga intros...

Damn you beat me to it! Yip, this seems to be "The Last Hero" by Kim Christensen (Future Freak)..... good choice to remix!
Can't say i have ever heard it on the Amiga though....

I have also heard this tune in a xbox intro, but never heard the original SID.
Thank you, I'm going to do the full version. If you have something to suggest for my remake, it's time

...and actually, it wasn't that famous on the Amiga as a MOD, but as a Future Composer tune and it can be downloaded
here.

It's an excellent track!
I think I heard the Future Composer version before the SID, back in the day.

This is my first sample :
http://ohmygibs.free.fr/mp3/arcane.mp3
But I think the bass & drum will not run like this...it will be "half played".
I have finished the main midi part of the full structure (piano,violin...)...
I'm testing & asking myself how to do the drum & bass part (so the FC composer version will help me a lot I think)
There will be a final guitar solo...
This tune is really important to me (I'm working a lot on it, trying different sound) ), I don't want to miss a thing...I want it very so emotive & sad

Hey gibs, you're really improving!
Getting better and better.
Now what about a bit more pedal in the piano intro (more sustained notes)
and some light reverb on the drums ?!
