User Reviews:
Asherett, Jan 03, 2005

Many other artists may have been more talented than Hülsbeck in writing music for the Commodore 64s SID music chip, but few gained more fame within that scene. Hülsbeck scored themes to a great amount of (often quite successful) games, thus being heard and appreciated by many impressionable teens in the late 80s. Indeed, for me as well Hülsbecks music was the door to electronica - my personal favorite is his music for the game Katakis (aka Denaris) on which I of course spent countless hours... It is a shame he did not go on to be equally famous on other musical platforms, for he is without doubt a talented musician!
