Subject: STIL Bonus: Scene/Game Tunes Mentioned in the STIL

Welcome to a wonderful collection of MODs, MP3s, and other
assorted tunes referenced in the STIL.  These tunes, as far
as I understand, are freely distributable but the original
composers still hold the copyright.  If this is incorrect,
please let us know.

The collection was put together in order for the HVSC team to 
verify several STIL entries for correctness.  We then thought it
would be a nice collection to release for the public to enjoy.
Some of you may have never heard these tunes covered by SID
artists.  Others may have a trip down nostalgia lane upon
hearing them once again.  Interestingly enough, you may find that
you actually prefer some of the SID versions while for other cases
the modules/MP3 will be preferable.

To find out which SIDs are covering which modules, you'll have to
look in the 'STIL.txt' file that is included with the High Voltage
SID Collection (HVSC) under the /DOCUMENTS directory.  (This file
is also available on-line in HTML format from the HVSC site -- see
below.)  Just open the file and search for the module name.
Sometimes you'll find that multiple SIDs cover one module.

Note that we are still looking for other tunes covered on the
C64.  Please see Wanted.txt included in this collection.
If you find a module that covers a SID not listed in the STIL,
please send me the module as well and let me know which SID it
is covering.

For those of you who are new to modules, know that not all module
players are created equal.  You can try using Google to find some
of the top ranked free players for your platform.  Some decent
players include www.modplug.com, Winamp, DeliPlayer 2, etc.

Enjoy, and check out the HVSC web site:
