Story
The game seems to be obscure but this Rob Hubbard composition is incredibly complex, inspired and engaging. It has several themes and riffs, the tension builds up, there is an excellent solo and the structure is absolutely flawless. A masterpiece.
Nothing to add to an already perfect song so we just played it. The only difference is the synth loops. Sometimes they play some notes of the original theme but most of the time it's just a simple programmed loop. The guitar solo in the middle mimics the one of the original song instead of improvising as we usually do.
Guitar and arrangement : Laurent Roucairol.
Drums done with Tootracks EZDrummer.
