Professional Atari-remix CD in the works January 6th, 2004
Ok, another late one..

Discussions about a professional audio CD with remakes of Atari (16-bit) classic chiptunes have been going for a while. After a bit of researching there is a lineup of musicans; Markus Holler, Jan Morgenstern, Barry Leitch, Larsec, Rafael Dyll and Marcel Donne.

There are also a few tunes selected, that will almost certainly be included, we can find a few closely tied to the Atari demoscene (Hippel, Scavenger), here's a list of what's decided as of december 4:

FOFT (donne/larsec) - Daglish
Utopia (Barry Leitch) - Leitch
Amberstar (Dyll) - Hippel
Tetra Quest (Donne) - Paul Shields
Enchanted Lands (Larsec) - Hippel
Oddyssy (Morgenstern) - Scavenger

So what can we expect from this? Some mid-file sounding remixes or something better? Well apparently it's the same bunch of guys doing the remix64 1&2 cd's, and they sound very professional. Below you can hear a few example clips from the remix64 #2. Very impressive! Some of the songs also exist on the ST, so it should give you an idea of what quality they can remix ST-tunes at.

Sorry again about the late article, but this quite exceptional news was burried down into a thread on atari-forum.com.
