| STIL comment | Most 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) |

Eargasm! Magical Sound Shower is an all-time classic, and this version takes it to a new level
Oxx:
Just what these golden pieces of music need, to keep up with the trends! They will never die.
omoroca:
Fresh approach, laid-back version, nice groove. Only a little slow for a high-speed racing game!
LaLa:
I like the slowdown tempo, and lots of cool things are happening inside the tune.
Leevi:
Sounds a bit depressing to me, maybe it is just the downtempo
