- Tune comments:
- COMMENT: "I am sorry to see that most composers these days don't have access to
the kind of tricks I was able to do (being a programmer), which for
example allowed me to create the 'buzzing bees' effect at the
beginning of the tune. Too bad, eh?"
"Well by the time I got to that game (1988) I was a bit hard up for
ideas. I didn't know what to do with so few notes available! I wanted
my tunes to build up into much larger entities but I always hit this
limit. Plus the time at which that game was developed was a pretty
rough time for Sensi, none of us were too happy at the time. Insects
In Space was a victim of this. True though, it certainly has
'character', but it just doesn't go on LONG enough, don't you agree?"
