C64 retro-game music: Reyn Ouwehand & Jeroen Tel

I love old computer games- especially the retro 8-bit music.  One of the legendary C64 (Commodore 64) musicians is Martin Galway, composer of many superb C64 game soundtracks.  Green Beret is one of Martin Galway's most famous tunes, and you can find a wide range of remixes all over the web (eg Remix.Kwed.Org).  This YouTube video is not just a remix, but something quite different.  It is essentially a live performance by Reyn Ouwehand (a famous C64 composer in his own right), who uses some fancy looping technology to enable him to play multiple parts and instruments by himself.   Anyway, it's very cool... give it a few minutes as it gets more and more impressive over time. I particularly like the cool Rhodes part at around the 8-minute mark.  :)

Another famous and prolific C64 composer/musician is Jeroen Tel.  Jeroen is responsible for some classic game tunes, including my favourites Eliminator, Cybernoid and Robocop 3.  Judging by this YouTube video, it looks like Jeroen is still very much active in the 8-bit music scene.  This is a small except from a longer performance, which you can download in its entirety from 8Bit Mayhem. 

While C64 or Amiga retro-tunes may not be everyones' cup of tea, I still think they sound fantastic.  Particularly when performed by talented musicians like Reyn and Jeroen...
