The levels of the electric guitar + drums seem wrong and overall the track sounds really murky If this was remastered so the electric guitar was crisp and each component stood out with quit abit of distance between the violin and the electric guitar then it would be 100x better , To me the whole track sounds as if i'm listening to it with a pillow on my head.
Be fun to hear a amiga/c64 version of this track.


the two people who appear in this weren't in collaboration with each other. They were two separate videos (The one guy on violin, and the other on guitar) and a third party spliced them together, so I don't expect the music to be stellar.

However, the fact is that it still sounds pretty freaking epic. I have no problems with the sound quality, and my headset is currently a piece of shit.

Not a problem at all, and you're welcome. I'll pass on your thanks to mrsid.

If your username is from the c64's sound chip, you might like this one (my favourite demo and on 9 votes...):

Yeah, I know it of course...
May I suggest this embed? It has much better quality:

One of us should suggest it to the owner, Mr. Croccydile. I just wanted it sifted because it's my favourite, not because it's mine. (edit: done)

There's some great stuff in your PQ btw

You would probably want an emulator to run the demo too, like vice - http://www.viceteam.org/
Well, unless you still have a c64

Amazing what can be squeezed out of a C64. Don't tell @deathcow, but I think they were actually more powerful than my Apple ][e.

You know, that's almost exactly what I thought when I first saw one of these amazing demos

The '64 had a dedicated graphics chip sharing the main memory on alternate clock cycles with the CPU, but it could also steal access, so how much CPU it had left depended on whether the screen was blanked and a few other things... but it's a lot more powerful when these guys are programming it than when I am!!!

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

It's very good to see you back on the sift

Is electronica/old skool demo scene of any interest?
