MrCaliforniaD | Swinth Commodore 64 compilation in HD - C64 SID chip - BEST SOUND QUALITY! @MrCaliforniaD | Uploaded July 2014 | Updated October 2024, 7 hours ago.
Played on a REAL Commodore 64 with the 6581 SID chip (R2-0384)
The program's name is "Swinth" supposedly by Georg Feil.
Songs:
(#1) 0:00
TITLE: Stationary Ark
ARTIST: John Mills-Cockell
COMMENT: "Theme from Stationary Ark, a nature show on PBS. [...] It appears on
Synth Sample as interpreted by a friend of mine. I didn't know what it was myself until I happened to see Stationary Ark one time. This song does not play properly on some C-64's where the SID chip filter is calibrated differently." (GF)
(#2) 5:03
TITLE: Saturdays in Silezia
ARTIST: Rational Youth
COMMENT: "A fluffy pop song I taped off the radio. Seemed simple enough to render on the C-64." (GF)
Also used in the game Shocker.
(#3) 8:29
TITLE: Spiral [from Spiral]
ARTIST: Vangelis
(#4) 9:36
TITLE: Tubular Bells, Part 1 [from Tubular Bells]
ARTIST: Mike Oldfield
COMMENT: A little free-hand adaptation.
"I just thought this was ultra cool. Used as the music to The Exorcist, unfortunately." (GF)
(#5) 12:09
TITLE: Magic Shadows, closing theme
ARTIST: Harry Forbes
COMMENT: "Magic Shadows was a half-hour movie show on TV Ontario, sort of the Canadian equivalent of PBS. They'd show old movies in half-hour installments. I have no idea if there's an album. I taped it off the TV." (GF)
(#6) 12:38
TITLE: Funeral Music for Queen Mary
ARTIST: Henry Purcell
(#7) 14:07
TITLE: Oxygene 2 [from Oxygene]
ARTIST: Jean Michel Jarre
(#8) 17:27
TITLE: Canon in D major
ARTIST: Johann Pachelbel
COMMENT: "This is a very popular classical hit. I transcribed the notes from a Transactor or Compute! article (this is the only Synth Sample piece not transcribed by ear)." (GF)
(#9) 18:38
TITLE: Enola Gay [from Organisation]
ARTIST: Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark (OMD)"
