Ogg is becoming the new standard, so you better \"update your bookmarks\" as they say
BTW, Winamp (both latest classic and 3) can play ogg files. I used ogg, because mp3 compressing is not free, and I don\'t have the money to pay it. While ogg is free (and in fact far better than mp3).
OK, back to topic:

Actually you are right. Congratulations!
The music is from a C64 game, called \"Creatures 2 - Torture Trouble\", one of the best made games on the C64 ever. It definitely pushes the C64 graphics to the limits. The original music, in it\'s original form is here:
http://bigbrother.vac.hu/~einstein/music/creatures_2.sidTo play it, you\'ll need classic (v2.x) Winamp (Winamp 3 is just a pile of shit) and you\'ll need the SIDAmp plugin. Get it from
http://www.labyrinth.net.au/~adsoft/sidamp/Beware though that it is a bit buggy and sometimes tends to crash Winamp. It works fine otherwise.
If you wish to play the game itself, head on to
http://viceteam.bei.t-online.de/and get the latest Windows binary of the VICE C64 emulator, then get the disk image of the game from
http://www.c64.comthen attach it to drive 8, and type
load\"*\",8,8
then hit enter, and when it\'s ready, type
run
then hit enter. Setup the joystick of the emulator to your keyboard, and there you go. Tell me if you can get through the first level, I\'ll gratulate to you if you do. It took me a while back then (I was only 9 that time though
)
Don\'t laugh at the graphics! That\'s what nearly 1 MHz (yes, ONE MHz) can give you.
In the
http://bigbrother.vac.hu/~einstein/music/folder, you can find some SIDs, and some mp3s. Those mp3s are the \"rewamped\" versions of the old musics. Definitely worth to take a look at.
BTW, is there anyone here from the C64 days? I\'m just courious whether there is anyone here, who ever had a C64. Is there?
