FileSTIL Commentary
Basket_Case.sid   
Castle_of_Zokor_Step_Caref.sid    "Another song from the game I'm designing, 'Castle of Zokor.' This is the background music for the second floor of the castle." (JA)
Chrono_Trigger-Battle.sid    "Chrono Trigger, in my opinion, ties with GoldenSun for Best RPG of all time. One of the largest reasons is the music. This is my version of the battle theme from Chrono Trigger. Unfortunately, I had to cut out the drum track from part of the song to make room for the marimba part. (It wouldn't have worked to mix them, the drum track is too intense.) Oh well, the rest of the song turned out nice." (JA)
Chrono_Trigger-Battle_2.sid    "This is a battle theme from the Chrono Trigger Demo that never made it into the final game. Pity, too." (JA)
Crystal_Cities.sid    "A SID version of the soundtrack from a PC game, 'Crystal Cities.'" (JA)
Final_Fantasy-Battle_Medle.sid    "A back-to-back playing of the battle themes from Final Fantasy 1-6, plus the individual themes." (JA)
Final_Fantasy-Battle_Theme.sid   
Final_Fantasy_6-Battle.sid   
Final_Fantasy_IV-Overworld.sid    "Another piece from Squaresoft's wonderful 'Final Fantasy' series. This is the overworld map theme from Final Fantasy IV. (or II in the US.)" (JA)
Final_Fantasy_Theme.sid    "The Final Fantasy theme song, as heard in Final Fantasy for NES."(JA)
Final_Fantasy_V-Gilgamesh.sid   
Jill_of_the_Jungle.sid    "This is the (almost) complete soundtrack from Epic Megagames' great puzzle/action game 'Jill of the Jungle.' It has some of my favorite OPL3 music in it, so naturally I did a SID mix. The one song missing is "It," the ending theme. This is because the timing was so totally screwed up that I couldn't make head or tail of it. Oh well. BTW, the song names here are the filenames minus the .ddt extension. P.S. If anyone wants to attempt a C=64 port of Jill (not outside the realm of possibility, in my opinion,) feel free to use this. The sample channel could be used for playing the game sounds." (JA)
Legend_Of_Zelda-Dungeon.sid    "The dungeon theme from Nintendo's 'Legend of Zelda.'" (JA)
Lithium.sid    "Another Nirvana song, at least sort of. It's a SID conversion of an Amiga MOD that I found of "Lithium." However, the MOD is pretty lame compared to the actual song. But anyway, here it is." (JA)
Maniac_Mansion.sid    Based on the Nintendo NES' version of the theme. "Okay, this one is more than just another remix of the Maniac Mansion theme song; it's the song from the Nintendo version, which had WAY better music. The Nintendo theme song actually had a melody (imagine that!), so I did this one instead." (JA)
Megaman_X-Select.sid    "The two "stage select screen" songs from Capcom's Megaman X. The first is the normal Stage Select, the second is the one played after you defeat all 8 Mavericks." (JA)
Megaman_X-Zero.sid   
Megaman_X3-Gravity_Beetle.sid   
Megaman_X5-Select.sid    "This is the "Sigma's Fortress" stage select music from Capcom's Megaman X5." (JA)
MicroMan_gameplay.sid    "This is the in-game song from the Windows game 'Microman.' I did a SID remix of this, since it is one of my favorite MIDI songs. It worked out well, except that in a couple places I had to remove some extra tracks due to lack of channels." (JA)
MM2-Flashman_Stage.sid    "All the versions I've heard have been crystalline bells and synths, and I would think to myself, "AAAGGHH!!! This is SUPPOSED to be a tenor sax and electric guitar, idiots!" So that's what I attempted here." (JA)
MM2-Heatman_Stage.sid   
MM7-Bass_Theme.sid   
MMX-Storm_Eagle.sid    "I LOVE this song. Sorry about the crummy approximation of a guitar, this was my first SID, and anyway, I like it like this." (JA)
Moon_Patrol.sid    "This is the ingame music from Moon Patrol, which happens to be my favorite arcade game. It's a great song, but the Bad Bros. Inc. version was BAD, and the only other SID author who took a stab at it was Jesper Olsen. (Some guy did the Atari version, but that sucked compared to the arcade/64 version.) So I made my own remix. I added some other parts to it, basically with a nicer drum track and another voice added onto the bassline. Actually, this started out as a Protracker MOD, but I just HAD to do a SID version of this." (JA)
Myst-The_Myst_Book.sid    "This is from Cyan Software's game 'Myst.' It is the music that plays as you watch the fly-in on the Myst book's linking panel." (JA)
Pokemon-Elite_Four.sid    "The Elite Four/Gym theme from Pokemon (all versions.) I'm not really into Pokemon (I kinda like it,) but it has really nice music. This is one of the best themes in the game." (JA)
SMB-Water_song.sid    "I always imagined this one with a bouncy bass and an accordion, so here it is." (JA)
Smells_Like_Teen_Spirit.sid    "I really like Nirvana's musical style, but I was very unimpressed with the SID mixes of their songs that I found. So I SID-mixed 'Smells Like Teen Spirit.' (JA)
Super_Mario_Bros.sid    "This will eventually be a complete SID soundtrack for Nintendo Super Mario Bros., but as of yet the only complete songs are the main game theme and the underground theme. I plan to do another version where I will remix them in full SID glory instead of having them sound like Nintendo music!" (JA)
Teen_Spirit_1_main_guitar.sid   
Teen_Spirit_2_2nd_guitar.sid   
Teen_Spirit_3_bass_and_dru.sid   
Teen_Spirit_4_melody.sid   
Weirdness.sid    "A collection of three songs from Greg Janson's excellent comedy game, 'Weirdness.' All of these were, to the best of my knowledge, written by Greg himself, although one of the other songs in the game came from Sonic the Hedgehog." (JA)
Zoker_1_Boss.sid    "It's the boss battle theme from Castle of Zokor, a game I'm working on. The game is for PC, but I felt like doing a C64 version of this song." (JA)
