BitJam Episode #136 - The Immortal Podcast

Episode #136 - The Immortal Podcast\nImmortal 4 enriches the world of computer game music, featuring remixes of the music from 35 Amiga games in newly arranged studio productions (German Report at .deMOSZENE). BitFellas pays tribute to the fantastic Immortal project and presents a selection of fine music from the Immortal CDs in BitJam Podcast #136, including a previously unreleased track.\n\nThe acclaimed \xe2\u20ac\u0153Immortal\xe2\u20ac\x9d project started to take shape in the mind of Portuguese game music composer Ruben Monteiro in 1997. The idea behind this project was (and still is) to release the greatest soundtracks from games released for the Commodore Amiga computer on CD - newly arranged and recorded in the studio, but not necessarily in a chart-compatible way. Instead, the \xe2\u20ac\u0153Immortal\xe2\u20ac\x9d producers aim to work with the original artists whenever possible: Chris H\xc3\xbclsbeck, Allister Brimble, Bjorn Lynne, Barry Leitch, Jason Page, Tim Wright and many others contributed exclusive tracks in the past. As of April 2011, four volumes have been released in the \xe2\u20ac\u0153Immortal\xe2\u20ac\x9d series, featuring music from classic games such as Shadow of the Beast, Turrican, Speedball 2, Pinball Dreams, Wing Commander, Alien Breed, Lemmings, or Cannon Fodder.\n\nMixing by Vincenzo, logo #136 by KF & Immortal 4 artists, compiled by Bobic
