 SID Metal - Music with SID elements

Hi guys,

I just stumbled upon a band which uses a SIDstation to accompany their metal with some nice chiptunes. I love metal, and the combination of it with some SID tunes is really beautiful, so I thought some of you might be interested. happy

They are called "Machinae Supremacy", and you can download lots of their songs for free:
http://www.machinaesupremacy.com/webography.php
http://www.machinaesupremacy.com/jetsnguns.php

Begin with "Death from Above" from the "Jets'n'Guns OST" (http://www.machinaesupremacy.com/music/jetsnguns/22-machinae_supremacy-death_from_above.mp3).
I really like that one. happy
Although I had "only" wink a Plus/4 and almost no contact to SID music, it reminds of the good old times.


What do you think?

Greetz,
Thomas

P.S.: Awww, now I see that they have been posted here in 2005 already. Well, perhaps somebody didn't see it back then.

Hey Thomas, nice to see you around again happy It's okay to bring up the topic again, like you said, maybe some people haven't heard of them.

They rock as hard as they did 5 years ago! I prefer their instrumental stuff over the stuff with vocals. One of my favourite parts is the famous Last Ninja arpeggio on rythm guitar in Sidology 2. It's unbelieve how well most of these tunes lend themselves to this type of arrangement!

I don't know if this is also old news, but I also like http://www.puffy64.de. Especially the Last Ninja2-remixes and Zak MCommando Kracken. Maniac Mansion Intro is fun, too. Hail the guitars!
