Back in december, i got a demo on CD-ROM ,of Cyberwar, a 3 CD-ROM game (hehe, 1.8 GB... just the demo is 120MB). Anyway, the music just blew me away. I tought, hey, this should be on CD... Then, i read the informations on the screen and learn that the music was composed by Steve Hillage, and that the game comes not only with the 3 CD-ROMS but with a CD with the complete, limited edition, original soundtrack. Ever since then i've been looking for either the soundtrack or the complete game, but nobody has it. Anybody on the list got a hold of this? Where? How much?

The monday after i got all the replies about cyberwar, i stopped at future shop and they just got one copy in (ya, i know, that was a month ago, where have i been since? well let's just say fiscal year end rush...). And then i saw it at radio-shack, and compucentre etc... got it for 59$ english version. French was 129$ (ouch), all in can$. The game was not as bad as people told me it would be, but anyway, this is a music list, not a game list...

It is actually part System 7, part some nobody playing general midi songs.

From the first System 7 album if i'm not mistaking. Also on Volume One or maybe Volume Two (the cd with a booklet).
quoted 3 lines 2. Mag-lev Glide 8.20> 2. Mag-lev Glide 8.20 > 3. The Tower 5.11 > 4. Cyberboogie 7.32
These three are as far as i know new songs by Hillage-Giraudy aka System 7.

These are your typical lame game music general midi style songs made by Russ Dunham. I think their claim is quite misleading (cause the music is not completely made by Hillage), and i must say i am a bit disapointed. Still, playing cyberboogie (with the cyberboogie song in background) on a big tv is very fun, and i hope that cool soundtracks like this will make their way into other CD-ROM titles (can you imagine Richard James "didgeridoo" as a sound track! would be too cool) Anyway, i'm glad i got it, and a big thanks to Michael, zig, Robert, Mark and Ulrich, for emailing me about the availability, track listing etc...
