Marble madness music

Here's a trip down memory lane, have a listen to the free sample on this:

I think I'll buy that for my iPod

Great great music. That FM sound chip (sampled for the Amiga) evokes such emotion.

Quirky and wierd music.

I think that piano version on Amazon sounds amazing, and could easily be used on some of the latest TV adverts that like to have trendy music, i.e. that Audi advert with Dustin O'Hallaran music.

Of course the original arcade/Amiga sounds amazing too

There was a trendy TV advert for glasses (specs) that was using a "tribute" to the music in Marble Madness, I think the level where everything (gravity included) is reversed. This was about a year ago, but it may still be on.

That's interesting, don't suppose you have a copy of it or a Youtube link?

Use WinUAE to rip the original mod, instead!

You do know it's an "acoustic version" i.e. a piano version of Marble Madness. I think maybe everyone thinks this is just a recording of the actual game music, it's more of a different version which I thought was interesting. Not better but different.

Go on Amazon and press the play button
