ITS HIM!1!1!

Tim, you and Geoff are both amazing composers! I’m amazed that you guys weren’t hired for more games!

Tim Follin is a great composer. His use of complex and crazy arpeggios in his melodies fitted so well with early sound chips. Those arps really made that limited hardware shine through. I remember hearing LED storm for the first time on the Spectrum 128k. The arpeggio was like someone firing a machine gun of musical notes at you, and it sounded so good! Even listening today, it still has that magic that you don't often hear in music. I totally get why so many people want to make constant remixes of Tim's music.

RIP Geoff Follin. Tim's FB post regarding his brother is a tearjerker. Seems like they had a great relationship.

Solctice blew the shit out of my ass when I first popped that sucker in the toaster

This guy was the Shakespeare of those modest sound chips back in the 80s. An amazing fusion of gifted composer and binary wiz-kid.

This man is an absolute legend.

Say "Solstice" Already!!!!

i'm here in 2024 to say we're still talking about him, and loving his stuff. Pictionary's music is awesome.

Did he play a musical instrument ? Or was the music program?

Tim is an absolute legend and a genius! His music forms a lot of the soundtrack of my youth!

TIM IT WAS ONLY PICTIONARY

i finally see his face

Wow, I wasn't even born in those years and I have tremendous nostalgia when listening to genius composers of video game music. I wish I was born in those years and composed for consoles.

Sin duda uno de los mejores compositores de videojuegos ❤❤

Grande Tim ❤❤

Kinda nice of them to give you a game with tim follin's music.

The must be the oldest RUclips video I've seen! *EDIT* I just remembered I started watching RUclips about 20 years ago 😱

00:18, cheeky lad!

Tim is a legend Instead of him worrying about his music fitting the game,let's make a game fit around his wild and free music !!!!!

THE RIZZ GOD FOLLINS !

I'll never forget my first experience with an Amiga 500... the intro music of Led Storm blew me away... and still does!

doesnt even mention solstice the most epic soundtrack to a game EVER. christ the title sequence just blows you away

Part 1 of the interview: m.ruclips.net/video/bQkicZOG-Z4/видео.html

As deep as I understand, he started making films. Interactive ones: m.ruclips.net/channel/UCOxd-q5A0YbDh0IyZu5tdHQ Baggy Cat Ent.

I was one of the fans that contacted him back in 2001 asking if he minded if I do a remake of his G&G themes with analog instruments. He was totally cool about it. Eventually I’ll get it done, even if it is 21 years later now.

Co jest

I always wonder if he played in a prog rock band or performed his game music live.

i like how the video is so old but at the same time is a different size and coincidently youtube makes the video fit in the same location videos were like back in the old days of youtube

Spider-man and the X-men will forever have one of the SNES' greatest soundtracks. And its thanks to this man. Just full on disco/funk/prog rock splendor in 16-bit.

lmao

Amazing!!!!

What sort of messed up games have urinary or excretory functions? German ones probably..

what a cool guy and a great interview!

I KNEW IT! Thank you for putting up this interview. For DECADES I've been thinking that they just really went full on cheesy and charmingly over the top with the spider man xmen game! Just hearing that screaming guitar intro to the title theme let me know exactly what they were going for even as a kid living an ocean away. That's one of my fav video game OSTs of all time. Such a hidden gem. You could really feel how much fun they had dipping into various influences and matching them to the campy, over the top comic book aesthetic. I just started a series reviewing game music and I know Ill be covering that game and maybe the entire Follin library eventually

What the heck have I stumbled upon at 3:41 in the morning! A masterpiece I must say. The Dreamcast was definitely an awesome console ahead of it's time.

On part 1, I asked the question, what year is this interview, but hearing him say he worked on the game Starsky and Hutch a "couple of years ago, and that was 2003, so i'd say this interview was around 2005/2006.

Is there a year for this interview. He looks about in his 30s maybe. Saw a video interview from about October 2019 where he did at a Q&A, and he looks a lot older in that one.

Haaaaeeete it

Plok brought me here, one of the best soundtracks I've ever heard and really addictive.

still far best than Don Bradman and cricket 19

Jou ma se dom kak hou op floek jy is dom en krieket is die beste

Fu k off

great composer, he should come back.

Humbling to see someone who is objectively a genius-level creative mind, speak so self-effacingly at times.

A Tapestry of Time
