Remember the groundbreaking Commodore 64 computer? And did you play the games?
Did you know there is an orchestra actually performing this old game tunes and that it is called the C64 orchestra?
You can find them on www.myspace.com/c64orchestra and the songs have been played over 140.000 times.
And did you check the extra ordinary CD design? Way better than the usual stuff isn’t it?
It gets even funnier if you are a musician, because the sequel of the C64 orchestra is called POKE 20.
Poke 20 offers you the possibility to get in the footsteps of the great Commodore 64 composer as Rob Hubbard and Jeroen Tel by downloading Monty On the Run in separate tracks and creating your own remix. You can find the stuff you need at: zipfile Poke20- remixng the C64 orchestra
Download the midi file of the original score and the separated tracks of the C64 orchestra score in Flute/ Horns & double bass, strings and you are ready to go.
When you are finished creating, make it an mp3 file and send it to poke20@oninternet.nl. Please limit your work to 5 minutes and deliver your music to us before the 31 august.
We will release all remixes on our internetsite and a selection on CD.
Let's play ON!
