"The project
started about two years ago when my friend Linnéa Carell
complained that the local orchestra was a bit bored with
playing 'classical' music. So I suggested: 'Why don't you
play old computer tunes?' She knew nothing about chip music, so we met up at my place and spent an evening listening to chip music - she was very impressed. We went to the orchestra with some of my remixes and asked if they were willing to play something like that. They responded that they indeed wanted to play computer game music. We showed them a bit of the work by 'C64 Orchestra' and they were hooked. But since C64 tunes have been done before (as well as a lot of Nintendo tunes) and the fact that I love Atari chip music, we decided to go for Atari and especially Jochen Hippel. So Linnéa started making arrangements for orchestra based on my remixes. We then decided to take it one step further and I came to be part of the performance on stage playing synth and drum machines. Since we wanted a bit of contrast we also decided to play modern game music like 'World of Warcraft', 'Starwars' and 'Pirates of the Caribbean'. Because arrangements for those tunes were already available, my part was limited to control the video effects." ACC:Xess |
