Paradroid
Composer: Andrew Braybrook · 1985 · C64
The haunting, mechanical theme that accompanies the droid-combat on board the Taxidermist.
Braybrook composed this himself — sparse, eerie, perfectly matched to the game's atmosphere
of tense, methodical robot takeover.

Uridium
Composer: Rob Hubbard · 1986 · C64
Rob Hubbard's iconic title theme for Uridium is one of the defining SID chip compositions —
relentless, driving, a perfect sonic companion to the game's high-speed dreadnought runs.
Cited repeatedly as a pinnacle of C64 music.

Gribbly's Day Out
Composer: Andrew Braybrook · 1985 · C64
A playful, quirky SID score that matches the game's character-driven platform action.
Braybrook's own composition, demonstrating his range as both programmer and musician —
very different in tone from the later atmospheric work on Paradroid.

Morpheus
Composer: Rob Hubbard · 1987 · C64
Rob Hubbard continued the collaboration with Graftgold for Morpheus, producing another
atmospheric SID score that complemented the game's improved visual effects. A worthy
follow-up to his Uridium work.

Intensity
Composer: Andrew Braybrook · 1988 · C64
The Intensity soundtrack — fast and pressurised, matching the game's faster-than-Uridium
design brief. Demonstrates the full capability of the SID chip under Braybrook's direction.

About the SID Chip
The Commodore 64's SID (Sound Interface Device) chip, designed by Bob Yannes in 1981,
gave C64 programmers three independent voices with ADSR envelope control, ring modulation,
and filter capability. In the hands of composers like Rob Hubbard and Andrew Braybrook,
it produced music of genuine emotional and aesthetic power — music that listeners still
return to forty years later.
The High Voltage SID Collection (HVSC) is the definitive archive of C64 SID music,
containing over 50,000 tunes.
