Classic Atari Games - Greatest Themes & Sounds

Post by mlynn1974 »

Has anyone seen this CD by the strangely named 8-Bit Arcade?
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Classic-Atari- ... B00P7Y3YZC
These are totally unlicensed\unofficial remixes I think.

It's very strange because it has tunes like 7 Gates Of Jambala, but 99% of the tunes have been turned into a sort of horrible midi version.
It suits some real 8-bit music like Pole Position (Title Theme) but not most of the others.
They must have spent a long time making horrible versions of good tunes!

It would have sounded better for them to have kept the real ST (YM2149), Pokey or Arcade Machine sound chip versions but they had to mess them up! I won't be buying this CD.
Still got, still working: Atari 4Mb STe, MegaST 2, 520STFM (x2), 2.5Mb STF, Atari 2600JR, Flashback 8 Gold.
Hardware: PC720B, Cumana CSA 354, Ultimate Ripper, Discovery Cartridge, Blitz Turbo, Synchro Express II (US and UK Versions).
