Sinclair User - "6 Amazing Coin-Op Soundtracks"

Post by XtC »

No, it's not off-topic! :wink:

There was a discussion on the old ExoticA Mailing List many moons ago about what tracks were included on the above covertape, and where they were actually sourced from.

The cassette contained the following...

Side A
1 - Silk Worm (Amiga Version by Barry Leitch)
2 - Gemini Wing (Amiga Version by Barry Leitch)
3 - Shinobi (Amiga Version by Tony Williams)

Side B
1 - Continental Circus (Amiga Version by Ben Daglish)
2 - The Ninja Warriors (Amiga Version by Ronald Pieket Weeserik)
3 - Double Dragon II (Arcade Version by ?)


I have the original cassette but the quality was poor - far too much hiss. So rather than just sample the cassette and pray some audio software could work miracles on the hiss, I played the tunes on a real Amiga and sampled them in 16bit. I used AdvMAME to record the audio for Double Dragon II.

All this lot is now available on the World of Spectrum website to download as MP3s.

Now you can have The Ninja Warriors music without waiting for it to be Customised or have a new player written! :wink:

Not sure whether this should also be included on ExoticA under the Misc. section?!?

Any thoughts?

I'd love to, but I think BuZz is a bit unsure of hosting MP3s on ExoticA, which is understandable.

There is a gap in UnExoticA where the CD³² audio tracks (as OGG or MP3) should be.


BuZz - where are you mate?
