STIL commentMost of the tunes are heavily inspired by the music in the arcade game. "Turbo Outrun took about a month all together. It was a lot of fun, but I recomposed every tune about three times to get it perfect. I still think it is one of the best audio tracks I ever did on the C64." "One nice, very nice note: 'Turbo Outrun' (the music) has won the: 'Best music on 8bit computer 1989' award at the PCW show (now ECTS) in London. :D Too bad I had to find out later. US Gold received the actual award. Bastards! I wasn't even at the scene when it was presented. :( " (JT)

OVERALL REMIX64 VOTE:

Chainsaw:
Mhhh… OK…
LaLa:
This style doesn't fit this particular SID tune well. Maybe if the tempo was slowed down, I can see the melody played in melancholy. Not bad, though, just not a good fit.
Dr Future:
Good piano playing. Like it. Maybe a little bit slower performance could have been more *dramatic*…
Fozzee69:
Sorry, sounds a bit out of time and a bit tinny!
