Guest Jaapengel79 Posted October 12, 2007 Posted October 12, 2007 Hey, My first time here.. I've been *so* happy listening to all the ReMixes here but I can't find one of the best music in games used so far (in my humble opinion). What about a ReMix of the Title Screen music of "Ski Or Die" ? I'm thinking a bit groovy, with a good sounding electric guitar sound like the original should have been.. Thanks in advance! Quote
Dafydd Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 Wait... what system? Is there a chiptune? EDIT: Listening to the NES soundtrack now. It's kinda catchy... Quote
Guest Jaapengel79 Posted October 24, 2007 Posted October 24, 2007 NES, C64, I think Amiga or PC.. I know the PC version best but I doubt there's any difference in the main theme. It's been a while since I played it but the Half Pipe theme is close to the main title theme and also pretty good. I just *love* the guitar and the rhythm of the original, would be awesome to hear it for real Quote
Low Profile Posted October 26, 2007 Posted October 26, 2007 I know this tune... it actually had an Roland MT-32 soundtrack in the PC version... which I fortunatly happened to own at that time Gotta love those oldskool MSDOS midi-soundtracks Very catchy tune indeed, with great custom synth patches for the MT-32... I remember a saxophone-like synth lead with some awesome sounding 'fake powerchords'. Made the tune really rock at that time .... 16 color EGA graphics, with 9 multitimbral midi lol... I might do a remake, if i only had that original MT-32 soundtrack [edit] with a quick google i found an mp3 with part of the intromusic ... http://www.crossfire-designs.de/download/articles/soundcards/lapc_skiordie.mp3 sure does bring back memories Quote
Dafydd Posted October 27, 2007 Posted October 27, 2007 Man, you can tell a game is old when it has a saxophone playing the lead... Quote
Beoulve Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 Man, you can tell a game is old when it has a saxophone playing the lead... LMAO Anyway, I remember playing Ski or Die on the NES, awesome game, and it would be cool if someone did a remix. Quote
Guest Jaapengel79 Posted November 1, 2007 Posted November 1, 2007 Oooh sweet!! That MP3 alone makes my day I love that tune so much :) Too bad I'm worse than <insert least favorite politician here> at music.. Quote
polar- Posted November 8, 2007 Posted November 8, 2007 I've been thinking of making a ski or die mix, i just have to get a new arm to my whammy/tremolo system on my guitar. I mean, you can't play the ski or die solo without some over-the-top divebombs. I'm actually surprised it hasn't been done by anyone, it's a classic tune. Quote
