STIL:

COMMENT: "Thunder Blades music was produced over night. It was decided that a demo of a level would be appearing on the cover of Zzap! 64. The actual C64 game was not written by Tiertex (although the other versions were), it was a guy called Chris someone. As I remember, he credited everyone but me!" (MT) (Chris someone = Chris Butler) "ThunderBlade is another favourite and one I loved doing. We got the proper arcade machine into the office to play with. The title music was a little different, no four-to-the-floor, a little more fluty. Then the in-game music just takes over. [...] the game was pretty good, and I made the music sound as much like helicopter blades as possible. I was really pleased with it, and as I recall, ZZap!64 gave it a pretty good score, too." (MT)
TITLE: Thunder Blade [from the arcade game Thunder Blade]
ARTIST: Koichi Namiki (Pretty K.N)
