Title: Name that tune!
Post by: KO2CV on 15:00, 23 January 18

Hi everyone!
I recently found an audio tape I made in the 80s containing all of my favourite CPC464 tunes.

It's been great fun listening to them again, although I've realised that I can't name most of the games that they are from. Can anyone here assist my memory?

--

THANKS FOR IDENTIFYING THEM ALL!

The piece at 19:52 is the tune from Tempest, but it sounds wrong for some reason (taken from a different system?).

8:28 is Saboteur
More to come

16:08 also Space Harrier, one of the themes when you fight the dragons.

30:15 I think is Cabal, but that's stabbing a guess.

Title: Re: Name that tune!
Post by: KO2CV on 16:21, 23 January 18

I can't recall playing Cabal, so it may be something else.

Post by: VincentGR on 16:29, 23 January 18

30:15 Exolon

What else is missing?

I'd like to know what game 28:04 is just cos I've only just heard that tune and I already really like it and wanna go grab the YM file off CPC-Power if they have it. :)

2.07 - Thrust tape music loader

Wow, good one. Yes I used to play thrust, so that has to be it.

One left!

28:04 is Pacific. You can hear this song when the player reads the map (using some kind of sextant (under the sea, yep)).

Damn that's kinda obscure. I even loaded up the game and it took me a while to even find one of those. There's not even music much else in the game so to get a jaunty tune when using the map thing seems odd. And unfortunately CPC-Power does not have the YM file of just the tune. But well done providing the answer. :)

Damn! I'd never have gotten that one at all!

It's a game I used to play as a kid. Always loved that "hidden" tune.

Be also aware that I'm the one who recorded mostly all the music from the CPC radio :). I know quite a lot of them.

Title: Re: Name that tune!
Post by: KO2CV on 14:56, 25 January 18

Yes!

I had totally forgotten about that game.

Quick search on youtube brings this up.

Amazing work guys, mystery solved ;D

A pretty decent ending! Damn, the music will be hard to get. I'll ask Tom&Jerry to hack it :).

Title: Re: Name that tune!
Post by: Carnivius on 16:05, 25 January 18

A very odd ending. Especially the part where phallic shaped objects start squirting as the naked woman walks by? :O

Title: Re: Name that tune!
Post by: Gryzor on 17:31, 27 January 18

Yeah, I didn't understand that one either :D

But a very nice and 'rich' ending to have back in the day nonetheless.
