Turrican - intro music (Amiga)

Chris Huelsbeck's pumping, operatic intro music for Turrican on the Amiga. Part of my classic game video music playlist    • Classic video game music  

Turrican is a side-scrolling shooter platformer originally developed for the Commodore 64 by Rainbow Arts and ported to the Amiga and Atari ST by Factor 5. It was published by Rainbow Arts in 1990.

Taking its cues from Metroid, Turrican mixes run and gun action with non-linear level design. But, for me, the standout feature was always Huelsbeck's amazing soundtrack, which surely must be one of the most iconic on the Amiga.

Turrican fans should definitely check out Banjo Guy Ollie's awesome cover of this track:    • Turrican - Shoot or Die - cover by @b...  

I sourced the Turrican mod file from UnExoticA (www.exotica.org.uk).
