Description: Menu theme of Mystical, for the ZX Spectrum version. The music is based on the original composition for the Amiga 500 version of game.

Wow, it's amazing how much you managed to get out of these old sound chips!

This is my masturbation theme music. I mean, hi! Great track! :D

That was so good, really enjoyed the whole thing!

i'm playing overwatch and this came on as i picked Bastion. Magical.

Neat... would it not be a straight copy of the ST music though? (Assuming there's an ST one ;) ... neat art tho. And +1 for the Hostages logo :)

Impresionante, amor instantáneo. Pocas veces he oído un spectrum sonar tan increiblemente bien

more 8bit style music

This music was part of the soundtrack for an unreleased game named Sokoban Perfect, made in 1991 for the ZX Spectrum, Amstrad CPC and MSX computers.

This was composed for the Space stage, and a sort of homage to one of my favorite games - Galaxian.

The unreleased game can be downloaded at www.worldofspectrum.org/infoseekid.cgi?id=0018361

Composed with my Compact Editor (www.worldofspectrum.org/infoseekid.cgi?id=0018925) .

I completely forgot I did this track! It sounds only when the game is loaded into a ZX Spectrum 48k. Recorded directly from a real ZX Spectrum +.

Soundtrack for an unreleased Game Boy Color game, composed in the year 2000. It was one of my latests soundtracks for Game Boy Color. Unfortunately the game was never published, though it was one of the most amazing racing games ever made for the console!

Radikal Bikers - complete soundtrack (GBC, ~2000, unreleased)

Short tune composed and dedicated to friends Hannah and Robin, NES style.

First chiptune in many years! Using the sound set I created for Music On - Retro Keyboard, with sounds of my NES soundtracks.

Hannah & Robin (NES style)

In the late nineties I did several soundtracks for the games of Velez & Dubail, published by Infogrames. At first I would also do the sountrack for Wacky Races, but they needed a really fast sound driver, as the game would be some of the most advanced ever for the console (just check it, it's amazing). Unfortunately my driver was too slow for what they needed, and writing a new and faster one was far out of schedule and budget.

The tracks you hear are the first test, just to check if the game could deal with the sound driver CPU consumption. The tunes only use 2 channels (+ noise), as one entire channel had to be reserved for the sound of the car engine. They use many stereo effects, so be sure to put your headphones on.

In the end the job went to Manfred Linzner who did a wonderful work.

Soundtrack for Ronaldo V-Football and UEFA 2000 soccer games for the Game Boy.

UEFA 2000 shares some sound flavour to my soundtrack for V-Rally. For Ronaldo I tried to compose something more festive, with some inspiration from my favourite game musician :-)

My first commercial tune for the Game Boy, released in the US as Cool Ball.

The game was only 32k in size (just like Bomb Jack) but very entertaining. It only had this tune and a small jingle for the game over. I was doing the mandatory military service and composed this tune in a weekend off.

I remember how amazed I was about the new possibilities of the Game Boy sound (specially the noise channel and the pseudo stereo), compared to the 8 bit computers I used until then!

Menu music for the game QBee for the ZX Spectrum Next.

QBee is a modern take on the classic QBert game by Daniel López, an old fellow from Bit Managers and Abylight, with graphics by the legendary graphic artist Simon Butler. It has been released recently for the ZX Next Computer.

Although the computer supports 3 simultaneous AY chips, I composed the soundtrack using only one of them, leaving another for the sound effects.
