thinlega · 15 June 2002, 22:20

RCK · 15 June 2002, 23:26

hum, what are you preparing m?

15 June 02 - Best chip tune?
09 June 02 - top 5 Amiga games?
02 June 02 - Favourite Game Intro?

Akira · 16 June 2002, 03:26

Shin-chan is up to something, and wont tell us!

I think I like "Agony End Tune", AHX format, by Pink/Abyss. but I'm not sure really!

If not, it might be one of Hollywood's songs, or perhaps Dreamfish

hummmmmmm........I have got something I am up to.......but its not what you think!!!!
I will keep you posted!!!

Ian: Fixed up your quote

thinlega · 26 July 2002, 20:45

Not sure who it is by but the chiptune prince.hp is quality...:welcome

Galahad/FLT · 27 July 2002, 14:56

I used to know this guy personally. He used to go under the name Hydlide, and yes his chiptunes were quite good.

His c64 conversions were cheated though. He simply sampled the whole tune, cut it up into seperate samples that Protracker could cope with, and then matched his instruments, hence why they were perfect copies and perfectly timed

I taught him to crack/AGA fix, now he goes under the name of Hoffman and is a DJ.

I remember him when he was a nerdy schoolboy

Galahad/FLT · 27 July 2002, 14:56

And Archon of Adept was the best chip tracker composer on Amiga as well.

jrom · 27 July 2002, 15:23

Well... my favourite chiptune is the one that's on Anthrox Chuck Rock 2 intro... dunno who made it but it's brilliant! Future Composer track if i'm not mistaken... It was also used on Bard's Tale 3 cracktro but i forgot who cracked that version... Razor 1911 i think...

Ian · 27 July 2002, 15:32

Well, my 2 favourites would have to be:-

Necroscope by Mantronix

And

Starworx by 4mat

Both are short, but v.good

Appogises if these 2 aren't strictly speaking chip tunes though

Yep, Anthrox put on theirs intros nice Chiptunes, some are my favourities, and the tune u r talking about its 1 of my favs - this one was compose with Sidmon 1.0 - this mod its very coolll (i made some intros with this tune too).
I also like some tunes that were made with SonicArranger, Future Composer and Hippel.

Weren't we all once ?

hell, Im still a nerd now

BuZz · 27 July 2002, 16:41

ok.. some of my faves. in no particular order

The Minimum-Song / Jochen Hippel
Vision Factory Crackintro tune / Felix Schmidt
Kompo / Felix Schmidt
Paranoimia intro tune / Felix Schmidt
Hybris music / Paul van der Valk
Naked Chip / John Carehag (Ziphoid / razor 1911)
Everything from pink
Everything from Ron Klaren
and about 1 million others i cant think of right now.

BuZz · 27 July 2002, 16:46

oh and i love the ingame music frmo jump and roll (future composer).

oh and many Art Of Noise tunes from Bastien Spiegel (Twice/Lego) are great

oh. and i cant forget some of the stuff made on soundmon by zzzax and brimble.. some great chippies there.

oh and the unreal ingame tune during the flying sections from maniacs of noise (this one from Reyn)

ghaaa.. too many great tunes. and ive hardly started
on the sound/noise/protracker stuff!

to pick an all time favourite would be too hard... (but maybe the vision factory tune would get it)

thinlega · 27 July 2002, 18:20

It seems like the best chip music.......comes with a cracktro attached...

I also like the "Angles" Prince Of Persia music as it was the first cracktro I ever saw........

The angels crackintro on Prince of Persia is a cover of the C64 Comic Bakery tune done by Jochen Hippel.

thinlega · 27 July 2002, 18:38

Is he the "Hippel" .hp music software person?? It always seems like the best tunes are the most obscure formats!!!

Yeah! Comic bakery....I had an acorn electron so I missed all the c64 music..

but when i went to uni a kid had a C128 with the original sids on....And I was saying stuff like thats from an amiga cracktro(not knowing that it was out on that years before

)

not sure what you mean by .hp but he does use his own audio format. Both on ST and Amiga. He created his own editor too.

Frog · 27 July 2002, 23:58

Jochen Hippel (Mad Max / TEX) is one of my favorite music composer, difficult to choose one of his music as my fave one... let's go for the classic Cybernoid 2 !
According to Galahad, the great C64 conversion by Archon are simply perfect.

@Buzz : do you know where to find Jochen Hippel music editor ?

His version of Cybernoid 2 is great. although the c64 original is still my favourite

I have asked jochen many many times in the past for his editor. From what i remember he did an editor on the ST and on the Amiga.
He told me on many occasions he would dig out his Amiga editor for me, but nothing...

Speaking of editors, i have some more i have to put on exotica. I dont think i put ChipTracker on there yet, and others. I should also put a complete MED collection on there, but I was a bit annoyed that despite Octamed SS is a free download the octamed people wouldnt give me permission to put on older commercial versions. They just kept telling me to download the free one. maybe they didnt actually read the mail fully.. argh

Frog · 28 July 2002, 17:01

@Buzz

Thanks for info about Hippel. Cool to know you'll put online Chiptracker, there was also another PT clone made by Abyss (forget the name, but it's not AHX of course) i hope to see too.
Anyway great job through the years !

BTW there's plenty of ATARI musics which can't be played on amiga. If someone is interested there's an unified ST player with source code at : http://sndplayer.atari.org

thinlega · 19 September 2002, 07:46

Does anyone know of any chiptune musicians who are now in the music indutry making albums???

TDK · 19 September 2002, 15:11

Dr.Awesome, Bjorn Lynne has released quite a few albums.

I'm working on a solo electric violin album.

Quite a few of us are in the game industry though, 4-Mat is too I think, he was at Climax... Bjorn is at Team 17, and I'm at EA.

Dunno about the others. Nuke was @ Core design, but I don't know... um... Twilight is @ Sony.... er... that's it... for now...

Akira · 19 September 2002, 16:10

Hey TDK! nice to see you around

Muffler/Haujobb (among others) is in the music scene...

But I suppose you were talking about oldschool musos! Well, Hollywood has founded his net label.
And as TDK says, lors in thegame industry now! Jester/Sanity, Pink/Abbyss!

TDK · 20 September 2002, 12:38

Thanks Akira,

Just being nosey really. Am thinking about poss. doing a few chippies sometime, and just looking around, seeing if there's much of a scene now, or if it's all gone PC on me

thinlega · 26 October 2002, 18:18

the mod MOD.hemp-o-nsill by non plus ultra is the most tripped out amiga song ever.....check the zone

Chipmunk_UK_1 · 29 October 2002, 14:40

And how do you re-play this musical masterpeice?

I've tried modplug, winamp with oldskool plugin, and deliplayer... none of which will even attempt to load it.

thinlega · 29 October 2002, 20:12

Uploaded a working version to the zone!!! Sorry....

Sorry to bring up an ancient thread, but I just found it while doing some research on the composer of this classic Amiga cracktro.

For the record, the classic "Comic Bakery" chiptune was composed by Martin Galway, NOT Jochen Hippel.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_Galway

StingRay · 17 June 2012, 20:05

BuZz was referring to the tune used in the Angels crack intro for Prince of Persia. And that tune was made by Jochen Hippel! That the original C64 tune was composed by Martin Galway is not much of a secret... So thread revival was rather unnecessary.

JohnnyWalker · 17 June 2012, 20:06

Ah! Well, it was worth reviving so that I fully understood that. Thanks!

s2325 · 17 June 2012, 22:25

Some of my favourite chip tunes in the Zone.

BuZz · 18 June 2012, 01:07

wow. old thread. yeh, Sorry for misunderstanding, but I said "cover of the c64 tune". not that he made the original. anyway

I guess my wording was unclear.
