A.M.T. - Speedball 2 : Title Music [Brutal Deluxe] [Imagework] [1990] 

Yeah. These memories is why I'm doing this!

@@ArcadeMusicTribute : You know you’re doing an important cultural preservation , right ? I’m not joking.

@@raggeragnar I certainly hope so! I want to keep the memory alive. These composers were so awesome and I want to keep doing it. Some people look down on this project but to me it really means the most I've ever done in music. I've left all other projects because this is just so fulfilling and when the positive feedback comes in it's just the best!

@@ArcadeMusicTribute : You know how it is ; haters gonna hate , trolls gonna troll. Just don’t waste energy fighting them. Their project is to rain on everybody else’s parade. Trying desperate to be superior. The best approach is to ignore them. You just keep on doing what you like. You’re not harming anyone , my good man. On the contrary. You’re reminding likeminded of positive memories. That’s admireable. Keep going.

This remix sounds nothing like I had in mind. It just kind of came out. I do like it a lot but in my head I heard a ruffer more dirty stuff. Like it all begins with the main brass lead. It should've been played by bariton saxaphone - the low one. I didn't have any good sounds available to me so I just went with cheezy brass lead. So from there on I just decieded to take it to another direction. There are some original Amiga sounds in there used. That mid range thing that's constantly grooving there - If I was doing this today I would've added a wahy guitar on top of it. I do love how this thing came out but if I ever get a good Bariton Saxaphone VST and figure it out - I'll possibly make another version. Same is with the Xenon 2. I had the same problem there :D

yeah I almost always do that

I'm really happy people like this track.

+stylishstyler thanks brother! :D I've used 2 or 3 original sounds from Amiga in this remix :D but yeah - I usually put the original track at the end - or something as closely related to it as possible - for even more nostalgia!

XD

thank you

Thanx for this compliment. This is exactly what I'm aiming at with most of my remixes. I'm trying to be as close to the original as possible, yet sometimes try to sneak in a bit of my own add to the song. Sometimes I would change the arrangement & vibe a little or something - depends on the song... As far as Videos go, I'm trying my best to keep it interesting with what limited skills I have :D

Arcade MusicTribute That's the talent right there you add your own ingredient, your own personallity, to the mix but in a discrete subtle way to make it better but not different. That's music alchemy keep it up!

tnx

@@ArcadeMusicTribute you should have just tweaked original samples a bit... its ok, but you lost that funky note it had... has. ill merge em... i think itll sound the best

@@CaudaMiller You'd need that low sax for this one and Xenon 2. I didn't have any proper VSTs for that.... Is it called bariton sax? :D that would certainly change a lot....

The question is, would it generally be possible for a remake to reproduce the flavor of the original? I doubt that.

@@commongivemeanicknam it would be possible but very, very challenging.

... and I always make sure to share the link on Amiga community Facebook pages.... most recently yesterday, and am pleased that more Amigans have discovered this loving and excellent remix of a classic. But I have to say that my favorite is the remix you did for Gods 👍

Didn't know :(

vs Fatal Justice

Thanks!!! ^_^

Thanks for the info dude! Really appreciate it! I already corrected. (y) Btw - I totally love the Amiga CD32 Speedball Music :3 :3

+Vincent GR Thanks XD

tnx dude!

Yay! ^_^

thanks man! ^^

you mean Amiga's audio card? I know later mod players had up to 8 and even more channels. I think Speedball music was fantastic and way ahead of its time. I've checked all the music you mentioned except Crazy Cars. Lotus is one of my favorite Amiga tracks besides Turrican. I remixed 2 tracks from Lotus Esprit Turbo Challenge and 3 tracks from Lotus Ultimate Challenge. Going to check out Crazy Cars now :D

+The Gaming Ground thanks man! :D

Anytime bro ;) Keep up the good work!

It sure looks that way, although I've never had the privilege to play it!

@@ArcadeMusicTribute XD

Thanks mate. I appreciate it! It turned out way different than I wanted it. If I could afford it I would have the main lead played by a baritone sax because that is what I believe is what it was meant to be. I didn't have any appropriate VST so I just decieded to fuck up the whole track and turn it on its head. It came out really good in my opinion but that's because I did not try to do what I originally wanted to. Besides the main lead being played by cheesy brass VST instead of the baritone sax I wanted to give it a harsher non polished sound. Just way different than it actually sounds but I can't mix that kind of stuff so I just went with the flow and this came out. Same thing was with Xenon 2. Again the main lead should've been baritone sax and the whole drum sound should've been more old school, vynil rap kind of sound. Harsher non polished... And again I couldn't do it and I just went into my own direction. I love both of the tracks but I just wish I could've worked with some professionals to get these mixes the way I hear them in my head.

funny enough I did buy a pretty decent sax VST in late 2017 after both of these tracks were already released, but it's not baritone so I could not have used it anyways ;) It can be heard on the "Arcane" track but it's mixed together with brass VST & other sounds...

@@ArcadeMusicTribute Yeah it must be hard to "modernize" these tracks because the originals are very specific combination of things, maybe some of the charm is even in the old limitations of Amiga, in how most everything was just 1 sample with harsh pitch shifting. Hard to reproduce or to catch the essential. You did well, I should check out more of your covers. It's funny how game music from this time is often better than actual "artists" and DJs of today.

Thanks ...

Well I'm thinking about opening an option for donation projects in the future... I've curently been producing at a very slow rate in last year, but I will step up, because this is the thing I enjoy doing the most in my life! :D

@@Jackaljkljkl S I C K !!!

that's my own version :D Yeah I'm not very good with raw sounds. I know how this remix should've sounded but I can't make it happen. If I ever get my hands on a proper Baritone Sax VST or someone who actually plays it, I will perhaps make another version. With this I went quite the other way. It's very polished and I'm afraid not even the original writer would have liked it very much :D I hope he would, but idk

@@ArcadeMusicTribute quality wise dude you got all the elements in there nice and crisp. Have you tried Vital its free. I make muddy drum and bass lol :)

@@doctoronishispsychosislab1474 I like my version but I did my version because I knew it was going to work and I knew that if I went for a more harsh dirty approach I would have probably failed. I knew how the dirtier version sounded in my head but I couldn't translate it into my DAW :D I'm not necessarily talking about mud - I mean those dirty sort of vynil noise drum samples and baritone sax for the main lead. I don't have a good baritone sax VST and I'm also not very good with ditry sounds. The same thing I did with Xenon 2. I heard it in my head but I couldn't do it. If I ever get a good sounding Bariton sax and I'll like the main lead it will motivate me to do new versions of both of the songs. I'm very thankful that people dig both of these songs as both have a lot of views and positive feedback :D

@@ArcadeMusicTribute Yer nothing wrong with your version in fact it is much higher quality. but it dose need that dirtyness for the full nostalgia hit :)

Now that would be awesome
