remakes of msx-scene music ???

It's already been done with quite a few Impact tunes...

Hmm, I don't think I have an opinion on this

I think, because it's 'the scene', you should ask the original authors if it's ok to do a remake.

I'll ask myself to make remakes of my own music then..

I think, because it's 'the scene', you should ask the original authors if it's ok to do a remake. In the case of game music, the original author of the music is in most of the cases probably not reachable, but in case of scene music, you probably can somehow.

I can think of a whole range of sceners who aren't around in cyberspace anymore .. maybe they will, some day.. but there're plenty of sceners that didn't extend their hobby to their profession, and are happily doing something completely different..

How do you feel if I was a talented musician and made a remix of one of your tunes without you knowing?
I wouldn't mind actually, as long as it's clear it's a remake ^^;

What Wolf? You mean like Cerror did with your "Contribution"? (http://www.cerror.tk/)

But I think it's the same with all scene-music/-covers. Don't rip malisciously, always credit/ask permission, have phun.
I made several remixes/covers of classic MSX tunes myself, though I've never released them. But I've seen plenty of other material floating around. :)

*found it*

... crappy quality

But to get back to the topic, I wouldn't mind.. and I wonder whether others would mind or not.. (or at least I wonder if they'd mind if the remake is done well..)
