Atlantis II, by Pierre Estève

Atlantis II

by Pierre Estève

supported by

Simo Sakari Aaltonen Two versions of the inspirational “Rainbow Bridge”, the Celtic campfire celebration “Knees Up”, the wistful, contemplative “Highlands” track, the various moods of “Illumination”, “Rainbow”, “The Sunken Isle”, and the impressive “The River”, plus the foreboding, imposing, timeless vistas suggested by “Rhea’s Garden” and “Stars” (for a breathtaking moment and sequence in the game) — capped by “Child”, the beautiful ending — two flute melodies joining in harmony to create the perfect ending. Favorite track: Rhea's Garden.

I listened to this stoned once, and it was pretty epic. Then I realized it was done in Amiga style and it blew my mind. All of the Turrican games were like that on Amiga. Most of us had the cracked version with a trainer, so we got to hear the entire soundtracks. This was a nice way to reminisce. Richesian
