Boppinest 8-Bit era music?

[j^aws]

Passing Breeze from Outrun, played on an MSX computer, using a Yamaha OPLL FM synthesiser cartridge.



Magical Sound Shower from Turbo Outrun, played on a C64, using onboard SID synthesiser.

 

[Abe Lincoln’s Ghost]

Some more Tim Follin goodness.

Target: Renegade on NES

 

[LowMax]

Does anyone know what kind of hardware and/or software they used to create this music for nes back in the day?

Always a big fan of the Turtles tracks, especially from II and III. The Playing with Power cover of the snow level in Turtles II... guitar work is too good.

Had to find somewhere to post this incredible rendition of Mega Man's music.

I don't really know what "bop" is, but Double Dragon, Mission 2 is pretty hype. Almost kind of a James Brown funk organ thing going on.

It's not 8-bit but the remix they did for Phantasy Star IV is amazing.

This blew my socks off when I first listened to it. The best of the recordings from this channel.

Let's not forget some of those Japanese PC funk classics:





Also, it doesn't fit the boppin' theme, but check out Hitoshi Sakimoto's PC-88 musical masterwork for some amazing tunes.

Agreed, classic Japanese PC games are a goldmine of excellent and comparatively obscure music.


Rigel Kent System
Fire Warning
Charge!
Theme of Rune Worth

Not on PCs, but fantastic:

Operation 4
Strange Memories of Death
