Rocket Man [ Bitpop Chiptune ] – Tribute to Elton John – Made with C64 Driver/Samples & DAW (6 Channels)
I remade Elton’s “Club at the End of the Street” on Bitpop 6 and I’ve been wanting to do another one of his songs. Since the movie Rocketman has come out, it’s inspired me to SIDifiy this one.

Not their #1 song, “500 Miles” as that would be two obvious. I sometimes like doing songs that I have a personal liking for in preference to songs of popular choice. This is one of those.

Made with the sounds of the Commodore 64 – 6 Channels
A collaboration between Gavin Graham & Taikan Liao.
This is another one those classic early 80’s songs by Australian Singer/Songwriter , that gets the occasional revival. It’s been used in Boogie Nights and also in an episode of Glee.
It has been my (dis)pleasure to work again the the talented Taikan Liao on this song. Although it took a lot of time to get it right, Taikan has provided what is one of the best vocal performances I’ve heard.

Two Tribes [Bitpop/Chiptune] – Tribute to Queen – Made with C64 sound driver & DAW
Frankie Goes to Hollywood only made two albums and their first, “Welcome to the Pleasuredome” had multiple massive hits. Their music videos got banned then edited or replaced. They were ever so briefly huge!
Just another classic FGTH song gone Lo-Fi.

Superstition [Bitpop/Chiptune] – Tribute to Stevie Wonder – Made with C64 Driver/Samples & DAW (6 Channels)
I started doing a cover of Stayin’ Alive by my ex-neighbours, The Bee Gees but the bass riff morphed into Superstition so I gave up fighting it and decided to do Superstition instead.

I Want to Break Free [Bitpop/Chiptune] – Tribute to Queen – Made with C64 sound driver & DAW
Made with the sounds of the Commodore 64 – 6 Channels
I wanted to do this one as a bit of a Rob Hubbard and Martin Galway hybrid in its feel. I don’t know if I’ve pulled it off bit I hope so.
Queen have gotta be my favourite band back in the 80s when I was growing up. I went back into their 70s stuff at the same time because they fascinated me with their “virtuoso” approach to music.

Just Can’t Get Enough was made with the sounds of the Commodore 64 8bit home computer – 6 channels
Made with the sounds of the Commodore 64 – 6 Channels
I remember when I was friends with this guy I went to college with saying that “this should be my anthem”. He said that as a devout Christian making an unfounded assumption about my sexuality as being a promiscuous person. Haha. Boy, did he get that wrong! – I don’t consider it a bad thing if you do run wild and free, btw. More power to you!
Still, this song just brings back a memory.
