Here is a track mainly inspirated from the Techno song from Faithless and Sash!, worked around a 6 tracks arrangement for the Bilou’s Adventures… I was imagined the song for a fight between Bilou and a big boss in a dark bayou.. No idea about the boss morphology, for now, probably Toad have a chance, but at that time imagine something more speed as the battle of Rayman and Moskito… that explain the title of this song !
Started in the end of the year 1996, i finished this short techno track that i have written for the boss ambient of the Factory Zone of seconde episode of Badman & Rubish Bin, fighting again Burner.
This track use a lot of samples i’ve made out of titles of my CD TOP Hits Top 100 volume 1 : Zhivago, Pin-Occhio, Ice Mc, Mo-Do and especially H2SO4 - Do it.
Well, here is the last songs of the year 1996, a loop track for the menu of the first game realised by PPP Team Software under Game Maker… in 1995. Pengo’s Adventure was not a great game, juste our first realisation with that tool, using the original pingouin of the software. Maybe did you recognize our Bilou as the first boss.. in a Donkey Kong like level !
Here is a new song for a PPP Team Software’s big boss. This track was written for Skyboy, the Badboy hidden in his castle that should be defeated by Badman & Rubish Bin in their second episodes. This some kind of mix between La Macarena and the movie sound track of Mortal Kombat.
So, i should admit it’s hard to link this song to our Bilou hero… mixing electro, asian koto, flute pan and some Street of Rage rave sounds… So yep, some levels was re-used from our Calimero Against the Black Empire project, and there Bilou should fight to a big boss in a spaceship.
So, here is the song i proposed for the Toys Zone of our PPP Team Software game : Badman III. Too much sounds Techno to be used in a level in fact,… but may be just for the big Game Boy that should be the boss.
After a repetition with my rock band the Virtual Music, or have seen a metal concert, i would like to write such kind of song with my tracker… also to pleased my rock’s friends JedD, Parmy and Len.
This song also be written to used in the boss level of our PPP Team Software game : Badman, when he fight versus Smoke.
Un dernier coucou à V-Drums, JedD (Jean-Denis Magis), Pierrick Hansen, La Puce, Tentacle Bob, MegG (Laurent Rosati) et DJ Dub (Christophe Deblire).
Nope, i was not won a lot of money… just a narcissic moment arount the first letter of my first name…. and a new trance song with interesting piano melody… better thant the global arrangement that not correctly sounds on Modplug/XMplay rendering.
During those holidays, i was working on differents stuffs. Keep tracking with Scream Tracker III but also writing MIDI songs with my friends Vivien and his sequencer : Culture Beat, John Lennon, The Beatles…
PPP Team Software also worked hard. Pype and I still working on the third episode of Badman and I especially working on a new project first starting from a 2D conversion of Wolfstein 3D world on Game Maker. Called Spector with a hero inspirated from Inspector Gadget, Nono and Badman… I took time to work on blood animation of my enemi death ! The first level was great ! But one year later we lost all data in a Hard Drive crash.
Tentacle Bob and his brother La Puce also working now with Game Maker…. Valentin working on a game called Tentacle Bob and also Ratman… who also appears as the first boss of Badman 3.
Yeah… that’s holyday now ! and our productive small video game team PPP Team Software working hard on the brand new episode of Badman adventure, the plate-forme game working with the “Game Maker” engine. This one still pushed away in the seconde advenutre called : Out of this world. You could now choose between the two heroes Badman or his partner Rubish Bin. Booth have special actions. There would be also some cinematic sequence between stages and new complex comportement for bosses.
Pype have write some programs that let it import and cut some LBM file produced by Delux Paint to the Game Maker engine and also an animator routine to easely create animated block.
… Anyway Badman III still will stay to a demo version with 3 stages on the cheese lunar zone, one boss and a first stage in the Toy Zone…
About that music the should be used for the starting intro and menu. It show you all the funniest of that serie with sounds recorded with our voices.
Well remember, i’ve write many songs for our game, but Game Make will not able to play soundtracker format… so we had to use some .CMD music often from Apogee’s game ;( Anyway, in that game, we have found a solution to convert music produce in Adlib Tracker to .CMF file… anyway with only one track channel…. You could hear that test during the “cinematique introduction”
The next day, i still trying to work on the kind of musical module as Vega Come to Earth. Well, back at home, it was the opportunity to proud my brother Pype for his excellent work on the Sky Castle Zone of the game Badman II that he realised with Pierrick on the MS-DOS Game Maker. During that holiday, they also developped some ideas about a new game project called : Grungee.
