STIL:

COMMENT: Tapeloader tune in Retrograde is slightly different from the disk version found in /MUSICIANS/R/Rowlands_Steve/Retrograde.sid, Tune #2. "The disk version was the original version of this tune. While mastering the game, the cassette loader would always hang at the "pause" in the music (the point where everything stops for a moment, listen for this at 1:31). They tracked this down to the pause in the music and thus the cassette loader uses a slightly different tune which doesn't stop." (Comment by Andrew Roberts)
