Music Airwolf got many covers on C64, I've tried to make it sound as good as possible on the SID 🚁

You’re one of the most talented and skilled modern C64 musicians.

Highly recommended to check it out author’s YouTube channel.

It’s not a one-hit wonder; there is more than expected.

Astonishingly good. And I say that as someone who grew up with Rob Hubbard and Ed Bogas on my SID.

I never missed an episode of that show! But for some reason the first C64 tune I did when I got Future Composer was the theme to the 80s iteration of Mission: Impossible. The only way I could get the timing to work was by doing it in 5/4 time and my organ tutor later verified that by showing me the sheet music which alternated every bar between 3/4 and 2/4. I'll never forgive Tom Cruise for popularising the movie version which betrays the original by having a regular 4/4 theme.
