Welcome to the soundscape of 1998!

"Busy" is a recognizable tune playing through the early stages of city building. Its a nice mellow track moving you through the paces of society. 

"Knights and Merchants Revisited" is playlist/album where I recreate the soundtrack of this beloved game.

Listening to the old sound files it quickly became apparent that the quality of those songs sound quite oldskool and degraded. Rescoring them with modern instruments/technology greatly increases listening quality. It was a blast to figure out how the songs were built up back then. Taking some liberties in creating my own versions of those songs was the ultimate goal.

"The Princess" has such a melancholic sound to it. I dramatized this song a little bit further by actually incorporating 'her' voice. I always envision her lonely in her tower with nothing more then a small toy music box.

Welcome to the soundscape of 1998!

"Army" invokes the drama of getting ready for battle. The drums are just so iconic. I've managed to keep the original percussion sample (cleaned up) and used it throughout.

"Spring" has a irregular intro that seems to go from 4/4 into a 3/4 song. I've tried my best te recreate that part, it wasn't easy! The result is a fun collaboration between the marching band and the flute playing on the same rhythm.

Your town is on fire! The enemies are targeting your Keep! Focus up!

"Struggle" is pure chaos. The original track goes all over the place,  so i tried making the song a little bit more stable. I did however put in all the small blemishes this track needs to stand out. Adding a string section also enhances the feeling of impending doom.

"Deep Blue" was a hard track to recreate. I had a particular problem with finding the correct sound for the main motif. I ended up going for a combination of Bassoon and Bombarde. Ever heard of a Bombarde? Neither did I! Very happy with the end result.

Knights and Merchants Revisited - Deep Blue

This game is still a masterpiece even in 2024. The music is magnificent. I got inspired to try and mashup two of its most iconic songs; "Estancia" and "El Club De Los Cuerpos". 

Everything is build from the ground up and by ear. So there might be some errors here and there. I really love how the strings accompany Estancia's mellow guitar. 

Hope you'll like it!
