STIL:

COMMENT: "Human Killing Machine was my attempt to write a soundtrack that sounded like Martin's Comic Bakery. Depending on which review you read, it was either pretty good or the worst music anyone had ever programmed on the C64. :)" (MT)
TITLE: Comic Bakery, Tune #1
ARTIST: Martin Galway
COMMENT: The whole music shows a big resemblance to this tune, especially the bassline and the arpeggios. "I will freely admit to Rob Hubbard and Martin Galway being my biggest influences of the time (as far as computer games were concerned), and I will not deny at all that their music had a certain influence on me. I truly wish however, that no-one thinks that I was ever copying them. If any of their sounds or productions in general rubbed off on me, I can only hope that they thought of me as a fan, and not as a plagarist." (MT)
COMMENT: Almost the same as /MUSICIANS/T/Tait_Mark/Music_Demo_7.sid, Tune #3.
