Rest In Peace, Geoff Follin. 💜

[@asurlybarber3620]

He could and did make a bad game worth playing.

[@popgoesvideosgames7066]

Rest in peace :(

[@potatowhale007]

Rest in peace. You made some damn good tunes. We'll all miss you.

[@jeremiahaticf]

Damn RIP dude. Love this music. I’ll keep it alive for sure

[@TheLightShow2]

Yeah that guy was out of this world

[@johneygd]

Mind blowing music, you wonder if it’s really coming out of a snes or CD player.

[@thiaguinqualquer]

Né, nem parece que uma música com esse nível de qualidade vem de um Super Nintendo

[@TriplomatX]

You heard this song on stereos? With Bass? It knocks.

[@paldinox1]

This doesnt even sound like its coming from a SNES, its that good.

[@mushra50]

The two brothers which is known as the follon brothers who composed music for video games were European music group who actually loved pushing hard work to its limits when it comes to music and sound

[@bigpots9142]

0:50 sounds SO good!

[@MikeDiFool]

This is how music for the Spider-Man flicks SHOULD be like, all 70's, funk-rock style. It seems to just fit.

[@SonGoku-qn1nc]

Nah

[@chriss.249]

@@SonGoku-qn1nc No offense to Mike but i agree with u Goku, we wouldmt have half the epic music we did if not for venturing out of the 70s music. Heck spidey isnt even a 70s character. He's a 60s one.

This is the type of music I always associated with Spider-Man. 👍

[@strawberryjamgrl]

holy shit, 0:49 is ETHEREALLY groovy. it's like a hybrid of funk, prog rock and daft punk. i think all spider-man music should sound like this. the follin brothers are gods. R.I.P. Geoff. ❤❤

[@rockojulian6281]

Total real House music vibes from Follin here. RESPECT!

[@pedroalves3161]

Tim Follin is a genius, he knows how to put funk, house and 70s disco in one song and make it sound perfect!

[@kyokusanagi616]

Best theme on the game. Would complete the 1st stage then just listen to this on the character select screen. SNES has never sounded so good!

[@johneygd]

It's 2023 and the music is still bangin 👌 even though it was produced in the 1990s!

"Alright guys, here's the plan..." (explains plan) "Any questions?" "Uh... I didn't get it, could you go over it again? Like, all of it?" "Are you serious!? How could you not under... You just wanna stick around for the music, don't you?" "YUP." "... Yeah, me too. So let's go over it again..." (explains plan while bobbing head)

[@FukiMakai]

-Any questions? -Yes. Why is this briefing music so COOL?! -Tim Follin, that's why. -I knew it! -So, are you guys ready? -I have one more question -What? -How is it possible to do a mix of 70s rock with a dance genre that it's don't developed in this year? Also, how in earth do you put some chords sequences in this soundchip? HOW? -Ask Tim when all of you finish the mission. No more questions about music, Spiderman. Now, move move move!

Tim and Geoff are probably the only 2 dudes that could ever make something from LJN sound good. This is beyond amazing production and musicality

[@kociemleko1]

LJN was mostly a publisher for games in the US. They didn't develop this game; it was developed by Software Creations.

[@randidesu]

his samples are so clear

[@EchoFaustMusic]

I really love how Tim did artifical ducking, as if the chords were sidechained in standard house music.

[@Symmetriad]

I just noticed this, this is INSANE production detail on a damn SNES!

[@jet_punch6872]

always loved that detail

[@EchoFaustMusic]

​@@SymmetriadOh yeah. Just even having the idea to replicate that is kinda nuts. I've never really heard someone do that elsewhere

[@Newtined]

@@jet_punch6872jungle protracker man

[@Sgtviolence]

Don’t know if anyone else does this, but I still rock this soundtrack when working out. This games soundtrack represents the absolute max that the snes sound card could accomplish, and it’s still awesome.

[@rommix0]

The thing that really impresses me with this game ost (and Plok as well) is the Follin's knack for creating cool sounds with a looping sample of cymbals.

[@Color_Splsh]

Almost sounds CD quality. I'm Follin in love

[@Gxyz222]

I get a certain 70s vibe whenever I hear this song!

[@TheFlamingPike]

Yeah the characters should've had aviator glasses and huge mustaches.

[@Gxyz222]

Hah! And pop collars, platform shoes, tight shiny bellbottoms and the works! What a time trip, man!

[@BattleOverride856]

Its like the 70 S met the 90s with the break

[@EvilForgemaster]

Tim Follins himself said the same thing.

[@Zelinkokitsune]

70s vibes from this.

[@tyrantravealpha]

Ooof, that bass slaps hard baby.

[@swordghoti]

Badass, you know he watched Kojak and Starsky & Hutch, Dirty Harry and all that grimy old funk with sad strings. He's on a different level to most composers working in the games industry, because he puts real feeling into his tunes.

[@Nathan-rb3qp]

He actually did compose the Starsky & Hutch game on PS2 & GameCube 11 years later.

[@brunomeneses91]

DAT BASS!

[@MatthewCobalt]

This soundtrack could rival most CD games.

Welcome one and welcome all! I'm so glad you could make it, Spider-Man. Your presence here is a bonus I didn't plan. Still, there's planty of fun for everyone. Let the games begin!

Pure 70s with a New York urban feel to it

If only this was a 32 kHz real hardware recording... Then I can really appreciate how the music was really intended to sound.

[@TenKromDTX]

the 0:50 reminds me of the Spider Man: The Animated Series from MTV, it could fit in a fight scene

[@swordghoti]

Comic book villains are always either psychotic, schizoidal or socio/psychopathic. The way they explore the twisted minds with a funky hero taking them on is always a pleasure to behold! Blows my mind how snobs always deride the artform as a childish pastime. He should do something with an Alan Moore comic, or even Grant Morrison's The Invisibles. Man he could do any kind of future funk on that! Brilliant composer. They should take this stuff on a live band tour...

[@overfoxed]

even the snes is saying "wow"

[@fnfhexagon]

This is on the level of the Gamecube! It doesn't sound like an SNES game at all

[@TJthunderstrike]

all time classic in my book, snes games had all the great themes songs

[@InfiniteBacon]

If you enjoy this, check out the OST of Plok. Another Follin masterpiece with a similar musical feel. Genius stuff. I always wondered why I liked certain games so much, but when the composer is Follin (let's not forget his brother) it's really no wonder at all!

[@jeremiahaticf]

Thanks for the lead I’m gonna delve into it now! Never played that game but if these guys did the music, I’m gonna check it out

The game was hard as fuck, but i would just sit there with the game paused and listen to the music for hours on end.

I put the soundtrack on a c90 tape, and would walk around London, into soho, smoking a fat one, while I was in Uni. Hilarious, I was just a teenager but it was way better than fucking Britpop. He likes John Martyn, Led Zeppelin and GnR, what more can you say? :)
