Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online.Rob Hubbard (born 1956, Kingston upon Hull, England) is a music composer best known for his composition of computer game theme music, especially for microcomputers of the 1980s such as the Commodore 64. His work showcased the potential of the Commodore 64''s sound hardware and provided many examples of how appropriate music can improve the gaming experience. Writing a few demos and some educational software for learning music, he approached Gremlin Graphics in 1985 with samples of his work, to attempt to market his software. Gremlin were more interested in the tunes than the software and he was asked to create the soundtrack for Thing on a Spring, a platform game. Hubbard went on to write or convert themes for games such as Monty on the Run, Crazy Comets, Master of Magic and Commando. Some of his most popular tunes include also Thrust, Spellbound, Sanxion, Auf Wiedersehen Monty and International Karate. The game Knucklebusters includes Hubbard''s longest tune: a 17 minute opus.
