This was the time when you started games just to listen to the music :)

1992, recorded into a cassette tape using my Amiga monitor speakers. 2002 made into a CD and always keep in my car. Childhood dream came true !

Bez kitu, każdy ten utwór bije na głowę wszystkie dzisiejsze "hity".

I never realised until now how much Patrick Phelan's work shaped what my childhood sounded like.

I was listening to this on the way home in my car last night. Now I have a blown engine, several pending driving offences and severe whiplash. Seriously. That first track.

Warning: Do not play Main Theme or Miami Ice in your car's CD player if the speed limit is less than 100 kph/60 mph.

when a floppy disc could destroy the world and every soundtrack was epic...

Still listening to this in 2020.

The Amiga had such epic music. Nostalgia atack! Lotus was one of the games where I used to load it to the title screen just to listen to the music :D Gods and Turrican II and Turrican III, Agony and some other games had the same special place in my heart.

6:16 You're going to have a *bad drive*

Literally brings tears to my Frickin eyes listening to this ❤️

I miss this game and its epic music. I used this music while studying it made me turbo learner xD

6:11 if you listen carefully, you can hear Sans: Megalovania.

jedna z pierwszych gier, w które grało się nie tylko dla samej gry, ale też i dla muzyki :) ps: Pamiętam, że do wyboru była muzyka LUB odgłosy silnika... a mimo to i tak zawsze każdy wybierał muzyke :D

At 16:23 that damn tune is always in my head especially the percussion. Amazing music amazing Barry Leitch!

Słuchałem tego godzinami.

Thank you for pre-anticipating on Aug 1, 2012 that I would need this banging soundtrack to boost my energy at work today, 10 years later. ;-)

The days when developers really put effort in the music itself in games. Miss those times.

I really think these wonderful sounds should be updated and added to every current and future racing game. Perfection.

This soundtrack is simply georgeous. Time goes by, but this music is still outstanding

During the intro, the three loud sounds at 0:44-0:46 are synched up with one more roman numeral added after "Lotus" until the title says "Lotus III". For some reason I found that to be very cool back in the day!

I haven't played this game... but I always go fucking gaga for Amiga music. Mod music is just transcendent, my favourite type of video game music - old or new school, that's also why I adore the soundtracks to the original "Unreal" games and the first "Deus Ex." I know some people bitched about them bringing back an outdated format, but the mod music still rocked. It's so atmospheric and unique.

Man, I love this "Night loading" theme

I miss great old game soundtracks like this one. The music is by far one of the greatest things of gaming past.

That intro + the first track playing... pure awesomeness

Still listening to that in 2023. I miss my childhood so bad!

Who else is thinking about OctaMED , protracker and all the notes flying by.

no song is wasted excellent great work of patrick phelan

I remember spending hours and hours playing Amiga games with my friend and particularly this one too. That was the golden era of games or maybe I just became adult. But but music is still fantastic!

13:22 CD 'Miami Ice' always pumped me up!

40yrs old, I'm still too shy to play "Breathless" over speakers

Way back in the day. Every kid used to have a shoebox full of Amiga games on tape cassette. Only thing was that only two or three of the cassettes actually worked. The rest just always used to crash in the last two minutes of loading. This was one of the games that didn't and we used to play it until after bedtime. Oh how I miss those days 😿

Its 2016 and im still feeling my childhood backing like 90's... thanks for posting ;)

There will never be a better game soundtrack.

Metal Machine 06:55 it's an underrated masterpiece

Metal Machine (6:55) was my usual choice of music for racing, Miami Ice being next in line.

I saw a Lotus driving past in my hometown yesterday. :)

Works great in my bmw e30 ! I'm blasting it very loud, especially when I ride with a passenger. They falling in love with that track.

I like how every version has it's own sound.

10:35 for the win absolute brilliance. Great guitars on it.

Listening to the intro back then was epic and still holds up.

Man! Mad soundtrack, I just went back down memory lane 20 years... thank you!

Absolutely love it, thanks for uploading it. Definitely takes me back a few years :)

The usage of the left or right channel only for specific sounds is unic to the Amiga era. And that’s what made this music so special.

BRILLIANT, I LOVE IT, great memories. Thank you for posting this.

Patrick Phelan is a music god.

Year 1996 Me : 8 years old PC : Pentium 1 with 4MB VGA 16MB RAM MS-DOS/WIN 3.11 for Workgroups. :( Good old days..

thank you so much! life can sometimes pretty rough but this music reminded me of the good times in life. Thanks!

This game had a simply incredible soundtrack! and the inclusion of the Zool theme! well that was simply the icing on the cake!

Never had an Amiga but played the DOS version and just finished uploading the DOS & Roland MT-32 (munt) soundtrack on my channel. The Amiga soundtrack is awesome for listening (especially on quality headphones) as well! Thanks!

The best music in video games!

16.22 i rememeber anytime this song in my head the very best of song of amiga forever

2020 and this is still popping up for regular play :D

Awesome - sounds fantastic!!

I love the introduction sequence.

Whoa, you made the night tune longer! I like this. :D

All hail to Pat Phelan. As a game, I preferred Lotus II, but I kept coming back to Lotus III for the soundtrack.

sounds great on my headphones , thankyou :)

Best intro in driving game history.

I was looking for good music for testing my headphones, played this without reading the title and was like I've heard this before, sounds like lotus challenge looked at the title and was like YESSSS! not heard this since 1993 or something!

I started the game for the music and the game 😃 this was the best I had seen.

Lembrando o quão velho eu sou, que trilha, que feeling!

thank you, very nice! прямо детство вспомнил!

this is great when listening to it with headphones awesome done i approve!

never forget!!!! #amigaforever

Evolution = C64 SID -> Amiga Paula -> PC Adlib/Creative -> PC Gravis

@10:31 Cool! I didn't know they used a remix of the Zool theme for Lotus III?! I had never noticed this back in the day, it took me more than 20 years to find out! LoL! :D

The ultimate soundtrack?!

Space ninja forever!

The very definition of brilliant

Awesome quality!

6:14 very sus, Toby Fox.

It's amazing what they go out of Amigas, isn't it? - especially considering the tiny RAM and disk space they had left after a game was in there!

Great! Thank you.

2023.....yuuuuup

Space Ninja! oh the memories!!

My personal number 1, talking about old school racing game soundtracks, in general. The one which completely took it to another level was, nonetheless, Screamer in 1995. I´ve been listening to this soundtrack on the Autobahn in every one of my first five or six cars. The original game CD was just a traditional resident to my in-car cd wallet.

Świetna giera Amiga forever

Patrick Phelan is a god, like Chris Huelsbeck, Allistair Brimble, Matt Gray, Richard Joseph, Rudolf Stember, George Sanger, David Govett and many, many more. Their sounds defined the era of computer and video games.

Oh la vache 💥💥💥 jpeux écouter ça en boucle. C est a cause de ces conneries que j ai passé la moitie de ma vie en party techno. Bravo Amiga! Bravo!!! 💥💥💥 Sûrement le meilleur truc de toute ma vie. Double dragon 3 // hiredguns// lotus3 // pinball fantasy// theme park// lemmings// street Fighter//bodyblows// canonfodder

This ia amazing!

alot of thought ent into the making of this song and to listen to i it must have taken the composer months to create, and alot of people listen and thing its just nothing, this was real skill and at the time was well noticed. Amazing work. im so glad i was brought up with an amiga than a shitty dos pc speaker.

This is the one soundtrack I unconsciously find myself turning up the speed on my treadmill desk while playing. ;-)

I do play this in my V8 423hp LEXUS and with that excellent Mark Levinson Audio system :D My wife looks at me with that look "Those man" :-) :-) :D She does not know what legendary tracks we had back then. :-)

Sue me! I'm listening this through my 8 x 10 " speakers and sounds good nuff :D

oh shit, I remember Metal Machine being used for a Wii homebrew program that we (my family) used; I never knew the source for it's banger until now, and look at that, I just find it all willy-nilly while looking for this OST nice

Amazing clear Sound! Brilliant! My Technics RP-DH 1200 firing it up. Outstanding! Please go on with other projects like X-Out, Z-Out, Shadow of the Beast, Super Cars II etc. etc. In that quality it´s like a complete new beginning! Wow, what the fuck! Sounds awfully great!

Thanks Dan

Very good effect on my headphone Fostex TH900, incredible sounds...

best sound to listen in 2021 - Lotus III - The Ultimate Challenge

Metal Machines, Space Ninja and Shamrip are amazing even to this day

So many memories :)

New Marshall 2 headphones, or I found them in an unopened box in a apartment My moving company was throwing everything away at a dump area. The apartment had burned in the living room. Our order was dump everything so I found thoose headphones a system camera money, tv, expensive clothes everything. BUT some things killing My eyes throwing away. Have worked with this for 20 years now. An expression in Swedish is "- It cuts My eyes" and also I had a Amiga playing and started Lotus turbo series maybe around 1.000 times. Bad is that this track is not the best quality but I have listening to just this track many times. But Marshall headphones are very very good quality. I downloaded 2023 LP records from digitally mixes special recorded from DJ:s and You can hear the recorde spinning around ✨️🥏😃😃😊😅 very nice. Good weekend everyone. Lotus turbo the first one i played with My grand dad tried to master the Lotus when I was 8 years old. He didnt had a chance 😃

The thing to take away here is that even the loading screens had music that SLAPPED

Wow! Brings back good memories! Thank you for posting this! Could you also upload the rest of the course loading themes? :)

No wonder the same people who worked on Top Gear on SNES worked on this, it’s just as stylish~~ man I so wish I had owned an Amiga back in the day I bet I would have loved this game

Just love it so much

Good job!!!
