This is a rock song that my friend Jürgen wrote together with me in 2007 when I was spending one year in Ingolstadt. I finally got the time to finish it on the last weekends. 

It is a little rock'n'roll romance about the dream of leaving everything behind to be a rockstar. OMG, that's such a cliche, I know, but I like it ;-)

I really love the guitar riff, which was Jürgen's idea - he is also playing the drums on the recording. Though it is hard to bang your head to the song without getting neck pain (because there are many accentuations on 4+) it appeared to me that - if played loud enough - it is also hard to not do it! So if you like guitar rock, you might want to give it a try!

What I'm Looking For

A rock remake of my favourite computergame soundtrack originally written by Rob Hubbard. If you got your hands on a C64 back in the eighties then you might know it. Recorded in 2009. Visit remix.kwed.org for more C64 remix tracks.

The original song upload is still available on myspace.com/gammlmusik, but who uses myspace nowadays?? ;-) . All tracks including the guitars is recorded with Audacity, a PODxt, hydrogen drum machine and for sure my Gibson and VGN guitars and a Harley Benton bass guitar.

I made the guitartracks public available in the C64 remix community for some time back then, because I wanted to hear what other people - being more experienced with remixing computer soundtracks - can make of them. So - if you have listened to my version - you might as well find some remixes on the net that sound quite similar, at least when you listen to the guitars ;-) -  I lately discovered a remix using my sounds of DrFuture, which I really like. Maybe you want to check it out as well...  have fun listening.
