Ha – love the Jarre-sounding covers of 8-bit tunes!
I was a little disappointed with the C64 tracks because quite frankly; the C64 can do a lot better than that. I've been using the C64 a lot in my youth (heck; I still have a few models stored somewhere) and I've seen and heard and helped create (no design but programming) massives of demo's.
But when looking back then one thing is for sure; it sure packed quite a musical punch back in the days. Its SID chip truly ruled in its era. IMVHO 🙂

For sure!
SID music was the soundtrack to my childhood. When I hear it now, it affects me in a deeply emotional way that I just cannot explain.
