2013 seems to have been a particularly creative year for the video game music composers, judging by the releases of three albums of classic 90s Amiga tunes remastered from Psygnosis, Team 17 and Factor 5 games.
Tim Wright, aka CoLD SToRAGE | Strix Memoria :
This Psygnosis tribute album features his best tracks from games such as Awesome, Lemmings, Shadow of the Beast II and III (to name a few), with brand new instrumentation and new arrangements.
This collector’ steel tin (now sold out, check the link below for digital download) contains 26 tracks + bonus track put in a 4Gb USB memory stick in the shape of the Psygnosis famous owl head (from the logo designed by roger Dean).
Allister Brimble | The AMIGA Works :
A double CD album packed with 27 tracks re-enhanced (Alien Breed series, Project-X, Superfrog, Full Contact,…) to studio quality and giving the tunes a more creative highlight.
According to Allister, this will be the last time these tunes will be re-created.
Not sure if there are still physical CDs available (limited edition), check the link below for digital download.
Chris Huelsbeck | Turrican Soundtrack Anthology :
A comprehensive four volume collection of music from the Turrican series of games, faithfully recreated, arranged and updated with high end studio sounds to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Turrican Soundtrack.
