Play 'Turbo Outrun' on DeepSID

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)

OVERALL REMIX64 VOTE:

hillsman:
A proper Turbo Outrun remix and its brill - great idea to expand on the original's tasty Get Ready tune!
NecroPolo:
I like the power and stlye quite much. I miss some kick-da-head power beat as the tune develops. With that, it would blast the enamel off the teeth 😊 For me, the best one in the latest pack.
Melaure:
Nice tune
Danceaway:
Great mix, nice use of sounds, full of energy!! All in all top stuff
LaLa:
Great arrangement, great sounds! The only thing I don't like in it is the lack of the pulsating chords/arpeggios of the original.
vurtx:
Its got lots going on and is something different, I really like the Jarre type bass, nice work!
Mordi:
Very nice instruments and soundscapes, but I'm not fond of the arrangement.
Ziphoid:
Quite ok.
Dan:
Not bad at all, for some reason I just don't think the instruments well that well, kinda old fashioned sounding
