Hi, some minutes ago I listened to the above mentioned CD while working on my pc. After some minutes I thought 'Oh, quite nice. I really enjoy that Fallout soundtrack. Great ambient music.'. A second after that I remembered that what was playing was not the Fallout (a CRPG for PC computers) CDR I made for my own use but Aphex Twin. So I carefully listend to the next few tracks and I'm sure that it is more the less the same music that was used for the game. I haven't yet really compared SAW2 and the Fallout music, but does anyone of you know anythign about this ? Was Aphex Twins music used for these games (there are two of them, Fallout and Fallout2, sharing the same music) ?

No, but the difference is minimal, if you read the game credits it does say who did it. The main credits track sounds very much like "Grass" (cd1 track 5). The music is all SAW2 style ambient darkness, and makes the game quite dark and very atmospheric. Definately worth a play. georgewilliamson --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
