[DOS] SkyRoads OST Remastered (hi res source rendered via original Amiga Oktalyzer files)
8This classic PC game is still beloved due to quick pick up and play gameplay that rivals any mobile game. The catchy soundtrack hits nostalgic feels pretty hard for anyone who played the game back in the day.
The game is also known because the Estonian developers behind it were some of the folks that went on to found the company Skype. Here is their official description of this music from the webpage which is still up: "All music (except intro which was done by Hasso Brück) was produced on an Amiga computer back then using program called Oktalyzer. First all FM sounds were converted to samples, then tunes were produced, and later note data from module was used just to play back ordinary FM sounds.
Because of the FM to sample conversion, the music sounded quite different at the time of producing compared to actual game. Some instruments just sounded completely different, especially percussions. Best example is Road 5, where in game version percussions can’t be heard at all, making it completely different tune altogether. Also for some weird reason game versions sound half tone higher."
Composers: Ott Aaloe, Hasso Bruck
