I just Mp3ed that sucka. It's "Galaxy Defenders" off the same titled
CD by Computor Rockers (It's also one of four tracks on a Computor Rockers
12").. The video game in question is Galaga. Unfortunately, it's the only
fun thing on that disc, and that's saying something given the cool if not
one-dimensional novelty value of it. I was hoping for the rest of the
album to be similar takes on other classic video game theme music.. but
all we get is cheesy booty bass via Kraftwerk (and I don't mean cheesy in
a good way.) and some gratuitous sound samplings of someone playing Pengo
and Burgertime... which is cool if you're too lazy to dump those sounds to
file yourself from a typical MAME session.
At least it's all better than G.D. Deluxxe...
Like Yeah. Go DXM Krew! Ur, DMX, that is...
