I used to think that Rob Hubbard was no. 1 but these days I am thinking that it is you. Rob did great work too although I find his tunes a little noisy somehow. This track is really fucking cool. I have listened to it at work on repeat for an hour or so. Other REALLY cool tunes: Cybernoid 2 Savage Battle Valley
Eliminator was a good game, but could get formulaic and dull after a while. This music really lifts it and makes the game feel much more fun. It's so catchy - one of my favourite chiptunes, and love that bassline.
I picked this game up for cheap in the early 90's, long after I was convinced the C64 was obsolete. Needless to say, I couldn't connect my C64 to my hi-fi quickly enough once I heard this amazing song for the first time. I'm sure I still have a tape or two around here somewhere that contain this song for listening on the road!
One funny personal fact about many C64 games I played as a kid: I can't really recall too many details of theire gameplay, but the MUSIC... I keep humming it to myself every now and then - or revisiting on YT, thanks to champs like the uploader here :-)
First heard this in 1989. Another Hewson game I bought purely because the music was by Maniacs of Noise. This fantastic track made a fairly dull game a lot more fun! Great work JT, it's an absolute classic! Also nice to see a version of this track on UA-cam that isn't played from an 8580 chip that massively filters the bassline. Our old 64 dated from '83 and had the old 6581 chip that sounded better imo. Did you create your c64 originals on the 6581 or the 8580 just out of interest?
Wrong. Listen to NES tracks of the same composer. Skill and talent is what matters not hardware. "Nintendont" itself is stupid SEGA marketing phrase, dunno why you use it to prove C64 superiority.
Somehow I stumbled upon this upload of my track. I composed it when I was 16.
I thank you all for the kind compliments about it! :-)
One of my favourite themes of yours. :D Heck, the music alone makes me want to play the game.
Your music is inspirational
Jeroen, it's super catchy. You got some talent, boi.
Boi... hah! =D

The C64 was lucky to have such great composers and musicians for real. I love this track. Mr Tel, you are a legend.
I love how Jeroen's work is never just a 30-second loop, but keeps going and changing throughout the track. Frickin' amazing.

Thank you, I always try to uplift the games I compose music for. That's why I am in the game. With vision. ;-)
Can't stand still while listening to this. Absolutely have to thump fingers, swing my head, thump my foot... so much funkyness in a single tune!
I have to say this is one of my favorite Jeroen music, i found out about his work today and wow there's some cool bangers
One of my favorite Jeroen Tel songs
Thanks, man (I assume you are a man)... :-)
Jeroen Tel Yes, I am a man.

Incredible! :-) Thanks, man! I feel honored!!! :-)
Back in those days, I used to record soundtracks on tape for listening on the road too... great times man... good old times!
I bloody love this track, one of Jeroen's best ever!
+David Craddock : That means a lot to me! Thank you, sir!

One of my favourite soundtracks back in the old days, as well as one of my favourite games on the C64.
I used to play the game just for the jams!
Very very nice.
One of my altime favorite songs. Funky!
Very Nice
Nice!
yeah great track ^^
Nice
reminds me of the song: Poncho ft. Maxi Trusso - Please me
Old School game soundtracks aren't so bad after all. :D

Why does the space ship got the domino pizza logo on the back?
this music has no right going this hard but it goes hard anyway
CommoDOre but Nintendon't. Heck this little chip we call SID is simply amazing, no matter what revision.
So true.
I think this would have sounded a lot better if you said "Commodoes what Nintendon't". You're still right, tho.
Wrong. Listen to NES tracks of the same composer. Skill and talent is what matters not hardware. "Nintendont" itself is stupid SEGA marketing phrase, dunno why you use it to prove C64 superiority.
@@jcdenton2819 I think you´re head is too much stuck in your ass to even discuss such things and the fact that the composer himself noted so.
Anyone got remix 64?
