Omega-TI Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 Many TI games have music playing in the background, some bad, some good, some really annoying and some great. Which musical score do you think is best? If you can, post a link or upload the musical track or game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digdugnate Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 Its a pain on my phone to link but i will upload tomorrow unless someone beats me to it. I really like Alpiner (Anitra's Dance from Peer Gynt by Grieg) and the theme from Tunnel of Doom. Zero Zap theme is cool too- I think it's part of the 1812 Overture. Alpiner -- Tunnels of Doom -- about 14 seconds into this video. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8_is_enuff Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 In game music: Zero Zap, Blasto, & Moon Patrol Intro music: Jawbreaker II, Blasto I have to say, the music for Zero Zap is way too good for the game. The Jawbreaker II intro music is phenomenal. Pretty good game too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shift838 Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 This is not in a game, but one of the best I have ever heard on a 1980's era computer was the TI-99/4A version of Axel-F 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Ksarul Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 I don't really know why, but I like the music in Super Demon Attack and the way it just segues into the sounds of the monsters attacking. Slymoids has a similar effect that always keeps me coming back to it. . . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I pick Slymoids for the best but I love so many others. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InfernalKeith Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 The music in Cerberus is really good! You can play it in JS99er if you don't have other access to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omega-TI Posted August 12, 2019 Author Share Posted August 12, 2019 Anyone care to record all these awesome musical scores and turn then into MP3's so we can play them in our cars on the way to and from work? I'm thinking a new thread/section with links to all things Audio and Video for the TI might be interesting. Podcasts, music, heck even books (if any exist in that format). The YouTube videos might be a nightmare for me to catalog, but as time allows and the authors supply the links, I'll take it on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The YouTube videos might be a nightmare for me to catalog, but as time allows and the authors supply the links, I'll take it on. I'm a great fan of chiptunes, especially those that manage to get more sound out of our sound chip by using techniques like volume envelopes, periodic noise for bass, white noise for percussion, and fast arpeggios for a richer sound. I'm attaching two of my favorites in mp3 format: Collision Chaos by Chris Kelly and Commando by Newcoleco based on the original by Rob Hubbard (I'm not sure the attached version is playing at the right speed.) If you decide to make a music section, here's also a collection of the tunes I have either created or remade for the TI, also in mp3 format. rasmus-music-collection.zip collision_chaos.mp3 commando.mp3 Edited August 13, 2019 by Asmusr 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega-TI Posted August 13, 2019 Author Share Posted August 13, 2019 Awesome! I downloaded them and will check them out this evening. I'll also put them in my phone so I can play them in the car. It'll be a nice change of pace. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
