Intro CD Clip, 0:36

Chris Huelsbeck's CD arrangement of "To Be On Top" takes the original tune to new areas, but manages to turn in a multifacted piece, which is full of variety. This version is from Chris Huelsbeck's Audio CD "To Be on Top", surpringly :-). Chris has been releasing Audio CDs for many years under the Synsoniq Records label, who kindly gave me permission to use this track. I've been listening to some of his non-C64 stuff too, and it's great. Thanks go to David Van Dromme (Stormlord), who first introduced me to Chris's audio outings.

I unfortunately never played this game, as Rainbow Arts stuff was a bit hard to get hold of in the UK at first. However, Chris Huelsbeck was writing a lot of good music at the time, and although beaten by Martin Galway to have the first C64 digi tune in a game, did churn out a lot of digi tunes in 1987. The introduction tune to 'To Be On Top' is a jolly composition, with sampled drums and bass guitar parts playing the main front to a complex arrangement of chorded instruments, which even to this day sound melodic.
