This weeks challenge was... [quote author=andrewjbryson link=action=profile;u=34 date=1243410229] The Topic for This Week "ViDeO GaMe bACkTrAX" Your interpretation of 80/ early 90's video game background music. Think Nintendo, Think SEGA, Think Atari or the original Arcade Coin Ups. Very wide range of sounds to go for : Action / RPG / Puzzle / Sports As long as you can have this in the background while the game is running... [/quote]

[quote author=Alan Ratcliffe link=action=profile;u=10 date=1244018934] http://www.ratcliffe.co.za/music/a-alan-junkyard_dogs.mp3 OR http://www.box.net/shared/g9fycu5fhr When I read the topic for this comp I immediately thought up a sidescroller game called "Junkyard Dogs". So I went with that and ended up having a lot of fun. Even threw in some of the cliched rock 'n roll that so many of the games of the '80s seemed to use shamelessly. :D Just drums and three guitars. The first half is just drums and a single guitar (with MIDI). From halfway, another guitar joins in to provide a bit of a "push", then becomes a harmony guitar for behind the solo at the end, which played by the third guitar. More details in a post later.
