about

Early in May Romerium had this idea of composing an album inspired by an old c64 (commodore) video game called "Scarabaeus". So he asked me if I want to collaborate with him and I immediately agreed since I love video games and their music and sound effects. During the 80s, when I was young, I was one of the few privileged children to have an Amstrad 6128 computer (with green monitor) and would spend hours playing games with my friends.
The story of the game is the following:
"All people on this planet are doomed to die by the pharaoh's curse.
The only way to break the curse and survive is if they come into possession of the magical scarab that must be found in the only pyramid on planet Octoberon069.
You are sent to find the magical scarab on this cursed planet.
After arriving on this barren planet with no sign of life, he finds himself in front of this gigantic pyramid whose large entrance door slowly opens.
He steps inside, not knowing what disaster awaits him when the great door closes behind him.
Wandering through endless corridors, with 13 niches from which large spiders chase him, our hero runs in search of the exit from this scary maze.
When he thinks he has found it, he finds himself in an even bigger labyrinth where many ghosts wandering around.
With every encounter with a spider or ghost, its energy decreases.
Will he ever find the magical scarab and survive or will he disappear into the gate of eternity?"
The style of the music is cinematic and berlin school electronic music with drum machine rhythms and special effects.
