      Hallo Chris,

      ich kann mich dem Kommentar von "Radio PARALAX" nur anschließen: bitte nimm deine Kompositionen der SNES-Versionen in die Sammlung mit auf. Die Tracks der Eis-Level aus Super Turrican waren stimmungsvoll und packend. Ebenso wunderbar einige Tracks aus Super Turrican 2...also bitte diese einbeziehen - danke dir.

      Viele Grüße und weiterhin viel Erfolg!

      Dominik

      Herzlichen Glückwunsch, Chris! Habe es Dir so von Herzen gegönnt, weil ich mir sicher bin, das Du uns nicht enttäuschen wirst. Freue mich jetzt schon auf das Box-Set und hoffe sehr auf eine vierte CD, so das auch die SNES-Version noch Platz findet. Wir drücken Dir alle die Daumen und freuen uns sehr auf die ersten Produktionsdemos.

      No problem Chris and well done. The Turrican music is amongst my all time favourite soundtracks. Can't wait to hear what you come up with.
