Story

This is a request of some kind. Rob Mason had found a lot of SID music from games, that are not remixed till now…he has quit a list on his page Listening to those SIDs i liked the first subtune of Law Of The West the most…and started to work on it. During a chat, Rob suggested also to include subtune 8 in some way. So i decided to use the 8th subtune as chorus part…since it is in a different key, i had to edit and transpose everything to fit😉 Since the original has not many instruments, i had to add some melodies & instruments.

At first i wanted to make a clean up-to-date version…with cristal clear synths and a pumping bassline, but it would not fit. After getting some feedback, i decided to let this remix grew older…it should sound like playing an old record.

Thank you all for your comments !

Cool :) I like your set of instuments although they sound a bit artificial (effects doesnt help). For me its one of your best tracks

XxDUSTYxX shouts:

Nice intro! Really courageous to publish a honkey tonk-remix, so you get orange from me!

Star shouts:

Funny Idea!

Chainsaw shouts:

Very great. Loved the game, the SID and love this remix.

Amok shouts:

Aaaaaahhhhhhh, Ic3m4n... I completely disagree with the crackling sample at the beginning and that annoying background noise trough the entire track. It pulls the remix down... Sorry... Idea and arrangement are worth a red one for sure...:(

condor shouts:

Have to agree with Amok. Anyway, great idea really :)

Dr-Duke shouts:

Kinky! :D

Wahlman shouts:

I loved that game and its music. I think you have made a worthy remix and I can see that you have put a lot of hard work into it. Nice!

Craze shouts:

Somewhere in between Good and Very Good. I'm in my generous mood, so let's say Very Good! An inspired piece of work. Great banjo sound - great feeling.:)

nicodaemus shouts:

What Amok said... Only I'm more annoyed. Crackling doesn't bother me as much as those gaps and clicks. Might be realistic-sounding for an old LP, but the cracks should be

Melaure shouts:

Very good idea.
