Arabian Nights (Amiga) 1993 - Cave-fish Boss track...

Post by ST Dragon »

It’s been some time since I completed my game music collection, of all my favorite games from my childhood years.

Only a few I was never able to find.
One such track is the Boss music at the cave-fish in Arabian Nights (1993) AMIGA, produced by Krisalis and composed by Matt Furniss.

@ 7:52 – 8:30

The following sites have 2 archives with all the music tracks of the game, except this specific one :(

http://www.exotica.org.uk/wiki/Arabian_Nights
http://www.mirsoft.info/gmb/music_info.php?id_ele=MTAx

Where could I find this specific track (a CD-Album to buy, mp3, mod, wav, etc… or any other audio formats?)

Any help will be highly appreciated
Thanks in advance

Have you looked at paula 8364?

It's a pretty comprehensive archive of Amiga music. I didn't look if the specific track is in there, though.

you could check gh.ffshrine.org.

they have tons of game OSTs in mp3 format.

you could probably check ffshrine's forums too, they usually have stuff too.

OK, I listened to the mod files in Winamp but it only plays the "main loop" of each track, not the 2nd pattern.
I think that the Boss track that I'm interested in is inside the ARABIAN-6.MOD.
So which would be the best mod editor to separate the Boss track from the main loop as a separate mod file?

Thanks in advance

Ok, I found the Arabian Nights Boss track here
http://fonix.dyndns.org:40000/soamc/ind ... id=49&#did

It looks like that many Amiga mod files have various sub-tracks which Winamp will not play or identify and this specific Boss track, turned out to be the 2nd sub-track of Level6.mod.
mod.arabian_nights_(music_6)_T02.mp3
So I got it high quality mp3 instead now!

But I would still like to know, which would be the best mod player or editor to separate the Boss track from the main loop as a separate mod file?

I also found the R-Type II (Amiga) music tracks
http://fonix.dyndns.org:40000/soamc/ind ... &sis=N%2FA
How ever the Boss track seems to be cut! :(
“mw.r-type_ii_T03.mp3”
R-type ii 3/12 ORG
It only lasts for 6secs! :(
Is there any other place to get this specifc R-Type II Boss track?

Also what kind of player or plugins for Winamp do you need to play these tracks?

I just wanna say, I think Arabian Nights is the most underrated platform game ever. I always thought it to be utterly brilliant and superior to its most famous cousin, Soccer Kid.
