@@KretinoSantino Same. I had the MP3 of this particular song and it gave me chills listening to it. I used to jam to this stuff in my car and NO ONE knew what it was (or even cared, sadly). And yes, the Bubble Bobble theme drives me nuts too! Love it.
I had my own C64 ... my father bought it, but it was mine. He just sometimes played Andrew Spencer Soccer with me. Summer/Winter Olympics were the best destroyers of Joysticks. When you broke it, you played on cross metal contacts below, when you broke those too, you made one from sheet metal.
Super Mario sucked as he had ugly cap. Giana had coolest hairstyle ever. And if you want childhood memories, ..... just go through available lists of games where Chris Huelsbeck made music for. And that's only partial lists as we don't remember many games his music pushed from being very good to utter greatness. You can also sometimes "meet" Chris on YT, and he will reply. And from comments, you can literally smell the good emotion he has that even after 30 years, we still recognize and appreciate his tremendous talent.
100MPX photo with 8-bit color depth has 100,000,000 bytes of data. Roughly 100,000,000 kids had experienced Giana Sisters on C64 and will never forget some 2,000 bytes of this remarkable soundtrack. That's how ingenious Chris Huelsbeck and tons of programmers, graphics designers and music composers were back then, creating so much quality with such limited resources.
Imagine music on 8-bit computers was limited to roughly 2KB of RAM, you just have to be musical genius to create something that millions of people remember throughout their life.
Thumbs up for those people who was there back in the old days when gianna sister was realased in 1987 on amiga, comondore 64 etc..i was there and proud of it :D
@@ZZombyWooff - Giana Sisters is a 1987 platform game. I caught myself misspelling about 9 years ago. its should be Giana, not Gianna. Anyway hope you get the answer, take care mate. : )
I've exchanged few comments with Chris. Really modest guy ... but at same time very proud of his music being tune of one generation of gamers and not forgotten.
You gotta love Bubble Bobble, followed by second best OST in history and creativity level not to be ever challenged as these composers made unforgivable music to fit 1-3KB of RAM. Literally these few bytes of data throw you back 30+ years ago, fucking time machine.
@@mactheAnimal798 I had chance to exchange 2-3 comments with him under one YT video, cool fella, very modest but also proud that his music is one generation of kids childhood.
@@Perkkeleenkuustoista If you check games he made music for, you will cry. It's a lost childhood, but everlasting memories. I've got C64 in 1990 (ex-Comecon block, best most people could afford). And on first copied tape, Giana Sisters were on it. It's almost 35 years, and I didn't forget Chris Hulsbeck masterpiece and enjoy it as much as I did back then.
I know your comment is old but it isn't like many people actually like this game, besides what Petros Adamopoulos said, tha game is also famous(or rather infamous) for being basically a rip-off of Super Mario Bros.
@@BenGras Yes, I know, I am not saying The Great Giana Sisters is a bad game on it's own, it's entertaining to play, it's the fact that it's basically a rip-off and/or reskin of Super Mario Bros and this can cause the following issues: -It doesn't make most people who already played Super Mario Bros want to play this game due to the lack of differences. -It can ruin the experience for people who played this game, since it's likely that said people wouldn't want to play Super Mario Bros because of the reasons mentioned above. As I said, I am not saying it's a bad game, but it could've had something different in the game mechanics, at least one thing to differentiate it from Super Mario Bros in gameplay and offer a different experience besides characters, plot, music, platform, etc.
They give out an entire performance in HD to the world for FREE, plus 40+ tracks. Go ahead anyone, tell me that they aren't the coolest and most generous band in the world!!
I had this game as a kid that was a hacked version with Mario as your character. I was very confused back then why the world was so bizarre for a Mario game haha.
Gian{n}a Sisters Forver ! ¡¡ ! I just wish the live version had the slow part and ending too! Too good still!! An official re-master-release of sorts would be awesome too. Maybe some epic with Hülsbeck could be funded!? One can dream.
They actually recorded it in their very early band stages. back in the days it was a free download off their homepage. Approved by the composer Chris Huelsbeck (but only for non-monetary purposes)
+Quinton h This is a cover of the theme from the original game from the '80s, not the (reboot?) game from a few years ago that Machinae Supremacy were asked to provide the music for, basically BECAUSE of this cover.
Originally "Gianna", the game box had a typo which carried over to later releases. The in-game scoll text made from the game graphics spells it with two N. The name "Gianna" is also more common than "Giana". As more people had this game as a copy without the box (as the game was removed from sale after pressure from Nintendo), I find it strange that the name on the box dominates.
Some people have wondered why the crowd did not get crazy..... well... most of those younger gamers sadly do not know the Giana Sisters theme. 😉
I went batshit crazy behind computer just hearing Bubble Bobble intro.
Guess I'm older.
exactly =)

Jag blir så uppriktigt glad av detta.
Tack!
The best video/computer game music ever made. Simple as that :)
Sans is just as good, ur almost right
Second best .... after Running from evil.

The crowd.. how... can they stand... so ... still... when epic shit like this being blasted at them. Even nerds should be reaching for the ceiling.
This Is Much Better Than Super Mario Bros
nicht nur geil sondern legendär !
1990 r. commodore 64, moja ulubiona gra. łezka się kręci.
Great game, thanks guys
so many people like this game?
The game is almost only famous for the music, otherwise it's not very remarkable. This is the case for many other chiptunes.

спасибо большое моя любимая група песня крутая 🤘💞
Spettacoloo
Why cut the video when all people gonna go nuts? So sad.
Nintendo hates this song.
Giana Sisters, last time i checked.. ;)
The legend tells that there was a typo in the 80s that happened... in the cover art... so here we are.
Wonderful!!!
Hey Machinae Supremacy, why haven't you recorded this and put it on Spotify?
Want it on my usual playlist! \m/
it is on spotify....open.spotify.com/track/62r8LTniTrEzlsrzLBQ9Pa?si=CM12-JpfSkm9QAg4k4ylfA

So awesome
Rob always has that "I just quick scoped you" face.
Kickass!!
1:50 first i thought he was about to play the theme of Ken from Street Fighter 2.
2:36 and on is fucking god tier
still awesome.....c64 version is the best....music intro
that looks really close to the jackson soloist i want to buy
Old skoolers are teaching the nu skool kids about what they missed out on :-)
i fcking love this theme! eventho i didnt play the game(s). this bobble bobble and tlou best muscis ever.
stay a while stay foreverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
why the fuck are people playing games when this band is playing live the disrespect
It's a playing games thing but yeah, I'd be at least a bit distracted!
That is the nerdiest concert I ever watched.
just a question: what were thos Computer-people in the background doing?
ScoutSpyScout They are called NURRRRDZZZ
MrDarkentro You mean the people who're supposed to be in this event? Yeah, I know.
Staring at the computer screen.
XD I used this song to promote my band at my school
and 1 and half year later, compose the giana punk version songs of twisted dreams, xD
awsome :)
It would have been more cool if they'd switched between cute and dark like in the game
+Quinton h This is a cover of the theme from the original game from the '80s, not the (reboot?) game from a few years ago that Machinae Supremacy were asked to provide the music for, basically BECAUSE of this cover.
and the other jackson looks like a kv2 (marty friedman's guitar)
jealous of both these guys
Estoy ahí, y rompo todo.. q publico pecho frío x favor...
3 people accidentally hit the dislike button.
rumpali pysyy tod hyvin taimissa
Aaaw
Did Pat Smear joined the band on drums?
Nette LAN-Party
Giana ist spelled wrong :)
Giana Sisters twisted Dreams
0:38 do .h.ja Pana?
It´s The Great Giana Sisters. Not Gianna Sisters. Check your typing
It's how the band spells it
+Pedro Lambrini Fun fact: It wasn't Nintendo who sent out a C&D apparently, Stores saw it illegal to sell from what I looked up.
Digital Beat Music No it's both because the cover art on Commodore is Gianna and they kept it because they couldn't afford to change it.
LePants Pants So pardon me if I am wrong.
not its not:)
