In celebration of the of the upcoming Phantasm Ravager, longtime phans and electronic musicians Comptroller & arcadecoma have offered up two new covers of classic Phantasm songs. The first is the original film's theme and the second is 'Sittin' Here At Midnight' as performed by Bill Thornbury and Reggie Bannister. Both covers were created using Nintendo Game Boys with Midnight even featuring the classic "UH!' punch before the jam! Hot as love!
This brings entirely new meaning to the line, "You play a good GAME BOY," doesn't it? Personally, I think these are marvelously fun additions to any phan's MP3 library. They make me long for a retro-inspired Phantasm game. Someone get on that, stat!
You can download both tunes for FREE right here. And as their page notes, "This is a free release purely made as a fan tribute, and all compositions remain the property of the relevant parties. We have no desire to incur the wrath of The Tall Man."
I love old-school chiptunes. It would be cool to find these in SID (C64) format was well. :)
