STIL comment"Without doubt the game which is most closely associated with me. The highscore tune (1) is a copy from the original arcade machine. However, having listened to the in game tune which was a complicated harpsichord tune using lots of channels, I decided to compose my own ghostly tune. Again the tune is not completely original using elements from several sources including Chopin and other bizarre sources (my mom's old organ vinyl records from the 70's). I'm still mystified about why I went for that strange percussion but it seems to work somehow." (MC)

Frida Katarina:
I like that brass section! Very triumphant. Nice cross between rock/orchestral.
tim_forsyth:
Brilliant soundstage, great arrangement!
Glyn R. Brown:
Very energetic!. . Just how I'd imagine a real orchestra would of performed it. Great work 😊… Also like the reverb choice, gives it that feel of a live performance.
TheTune:
Cool sound
DMC:
This was so close to a red one and for sure is a superb track with great arrangement. I listened at least 4 time to the entire track but in the end for a top notch orchestral piece there's missing something. Sorry I can't excatly tell what it is.
