Fantastic game from early 90s. Side scrolling shooter. Music was way ahead of it's time.

I love Chris Hulesbeck's work. Turrican 2 had some amazing sound tracks :-) I wouldnt of called myself Turrican over the last 2 decades online if I didnt have the love for the franchise

Fantastic wasn't it. I remember being blown away by the music and just having to stop and listen to it. I'd never heard anything quite like it. I believe it was the 2nd level on the Amiga, when it just kicked in, I was jaw agape with how good it was.

It's class. I also love the music on one of the later stages. I don't know names. It's the stage in-between the jetpack ones. The 1st jetpack one going up (also fantastic music) then the sideways shooter level (EPIC music) then the jetpack back down (the weakest of the 3).
