AMAD.FEUD What is this?

[volvo_0ne]

This is an AY tune (AFAIK) for the ZX Spectrum

It's a fantastic tune, BUT WHen I heard it I thought the game "FEUD" was the origin of it, however after downloading the (48k)game, I find that it isn't.

Does anyone know the origin of this file?

It's in the zone as AMAD.FEUD 983 bytes

Playable with Delitracker & Hippoplayer (Maybe others)

Thanks

I don't know if there is any difference, but as far as I remember the original FEUD was 48k. Maybe the 128k version is a re-release with different music?

You are correct, I meant 48k (I was tired) AFAIK there wasn't a 128k version.

(Unless anyone knows better?)

If that's the case, is that AY music from another machine, or is it just coincidence that the names match?

There are also games Feudal Overlord and Feudal Wars.

Could it be a cover version of the music in another version of Feud?

Based on a very quick Google search, AY Amadeus is apparently some kind of tracker program. Various "AMAD" modules can be downloaded from http://www.filewatcher.com/b/ftp/ftp...Amadeus-0.html

Interesting, most of those are either game themes, or movie themes.
(however I don't recognise "Feud" as anything, even though I like the tune)

I have a theory they were from one of the music "demo" cassettes of the time.

I didn't bother getting feud.amad to play, but here are links to some YouTube videos of other versions.

Cheers Mark, I don't hear it on any of those tho, and surprisingly, the Amiga version is almost silent :-O
