I don't know if anybody else has felt the release of Immortal 3 dragging on for longer than the release of a new Amiga by Escom or Gateway 2000 ever did!

Apparently, "The Killing Gameshow" and "Blood Money" were also to be included, but the tracks couldn't be finished in time.
If you're into Atari ST soundtracks, then the yet to be released album "Revival ST" should whet your appetite. Still being a biased Tim Follin fan, the following preview was very impressive: -

In the meantime I thought it would be nice to let you have a look at the making of one of the tracks: "Shadow of the Beast 2" was orginally to be arranged by "Immortal" series creator Ruben Monteiro for CD; unfortunately, he only found the time to work on the intro and make a hurried attempt to re-orchestrate the ingame mod. Since this was the only track left unfinished I decided to give it a hand myself and teamed up with a friend to sample a whole load of quality sounds from our synth racks. In addition to the exchange of samples and some careful changes to the song structure we re-arranged the climatic string part at the end of the piece with a Kurzweil K2500. The result was finally approved by composer Tim Wright and will hopefully please the many fans of the Amiga original...
