Instead of depriving this song from the world I think that after my hard drive crash I might just as well share it with you in it's current state. :-) Hope you like it as is! :-)

Jeroen Tel - Clear As Crystal

Lets Go!!

Preview of the remake of the Highscore tune for the Commodore 64 videogame "Hawkeye" for the upcoming album "Tel Me More".

Composed in 1986 at age 14 and published by Thalamus in 1987. The game was developed by my friends the Boys Without Brains (BWB).

This was always one of my personal favorites and I felt it was the most accomplished short tune I composed for a C64 game.

I got reminded to remake this tune a lot in the many years passing since. When my friend and producer of many years, Joe Bonar, reminded me of it recently, I decided to drop working on all the other songs for a while and work on this one non-stop.

Enjoy the preview! :-)

Please leave a comment, LIKE (if you do) and share! (subscribe perhaps?) I do enjoy feedback and comments GREATLY. Keep in mind it's a preview, but constructive feedback is absolutely welcome at all times. :-)

Inspired by dubstep but mainly inspired by my own inventions in 8 bit from the eighties I bring you this song... Completely arranged in Renoise (hail Renoise!)... I really hope this song will be as addictive to you as how it was addictive to me whilst composing it... Enjoy! ¶8-)

In 1988 Adobe released Illustrator 88 (originally v. 1.7, but this was the public name). My good friend, Alexander Brandon shared this old video with the demonstration of all the features Illustrator had at the time, and the music was so catchy that I felt the urge to do a revamp, or sort of remix. 

Original demo: https://youtu.be/5NPUVs06iyU - Note that it starts with a lot of noise first, so keep the volume down. Music starts about halfway through. Pretty funky stuff, right? Straight out of Links - The Challenge of Golf! :D

Now, when I had finished my revamp and extrapolation of the parts that weren't there, I of course found the FULL Adobe Illustrator presentation, which of course came with the complete song and more late 80s corporate synth pop music. Sigh! https://youtu.be/3ctLAKFsol0 . Ah well, sometimes you miss. But hopefully, this version is just good enough. 

Thanks to whomever composed the original music for Adobe's presentation videos. If you happen to know who that is, leave a comment below. ;)

Let's go back to 1989 and perhaps Sierra's most famous Space Quest game: SQ3 and our hero Roger Wilco. And why not match the iconic sound track from Bob Siebenberg (the drummer from Supertramp) and Mark Seiberg with the KORG EX-8000, the rack version of the DW-8000 keyboard.

I've taken the liberty of tidying up some of the parts and making it more punchy as usual. I also felt the Fester Blatz and Monolith Burger themes could do with some 66% shuffle groove. ;)

The drums are Zenhiser Retro Drummer and Yamaha Motif XS-7.

A short experimentation after taking a few courses on writing for an orchestra. I just might be starting to understand a little how to write for different sections :)

EDIT: Re-uploaded a new version as the previous one had a track muted, and I fixed some problems with harmony. Silly me.
