100 Amiga games in 10 minutes!

A trip down memory lane :-)



Musikken fra Amiga-spillet Xenon II er også værd lige at strejfe:

"The Bitmap Brothers co-operated with the British musician Tim Simenon to include the Bomb the Bass hip hop track "Megablast (Hip Hop On Precinct 13)" as theme music, which is also the origin of the game's subtitle. In turn, the theme of this song is based on the theme of John Carpenter's Assault on Precinct 13 movie and features also many samples from Sly and the Family Stone song, "You Can Make It if You Try".

The game was the first well-known instance of a computer recreation of a pop single. As opposed to it being straight recording of the song, sections of the music were sampled then re-sequenced by the computer. It showed that a home computer such as the Amiga was a viable tool for making dance music. For the next five years or so, hundreds of dance records, including many that were hits in Britain and Europe were made on the Amiga. All as a direct result of the Xenon 2 theme music, showing that it was possible to do so."
