Episode #157 - Tribute to Psygnosis, Part 1: The Amiga years
On August, the 22nd of 2012, the SHADOW OF THE BEAST (Sony) fell over Sony Studio Liverpool, better known as Psygnosis. After producing AWESOME games for 28 years the MENACE couldn't be stopped. Game over for a company who wrote a big chapter into the book of history of computer and video games. BitFellas says "thank you" for creating and publishing milestones like Lemmings, Barbarian, the Beast trilogy, WipEout and many more gems, including some of the best box art of all time.
R.I.P. Psygnosis, playing at the THEATRE OF DEATH now.
This is the first podcast episode with music from Psygnosis games. The focus here is on music from their Amiga games, sometimes in their original MOD version, sometimes as remix. Some unreleased tunes are included, too.
BitFellas - playing the tune tonight, which Bobic made to switch from Atari ST to Amiga in 1989 (Blood Money!).
