A little bit of Rob Hubbard for you.

So if you like a bit of Hubbard check out the BleepCast – Level 6 and BleepCast – Level 7.
Also I’ve got a speical bonus for you. Did you know Rob Hubbard wrote the music for Jet Set Willy? No, well that’s because he only wrote the music for the rather terrible Atari version. Isn’t it weird the worst conversion of this classic gets the best music.

[...] While putting this together I’ve noticed that I don’t take as many photo I use too, they are lots of events I don’t have a single photo for. So more photos will be taken next year. Music is by Serge P more about it here. [...]
It’s really hard to go wrong with Rob Hubbard. The man is one of the legends of c64 music for a reason.
