What the critics say...
Pasted Graphic

"As a collection of remixes, it's awesome. As an album of music, ignoring the computer game connections, it's as rich and varied as a film soundtrack should be." (Remix 64 Vol. 2)

Play Magazine
"I think I was already sold on Söldner-X: Himmelsstürmer the moment I heard the cool computer voice say “confirmed” as you click the start button. (...) If the fine sound design (...) doesn’t do it for you, Rafael Dyll’s energetic and memorable synth soundtrack is sure to please."

"Highly recommended" (L.E.D. Storm)

"The definitive number 1 on this album (Revival ST) is "Lethal Xcess", (...) the variations that Rafael has conjured up out of his synth-wonderbox are breathtaking. (...)"

"The ambient soundtrack is one of the finest of the retro 16-bit generation and unmistakably composed by an Amiga enthusiast. Sound: 9/10"
(Last Hope Soundtrack)

"The Great Giana Sisters walked straight out of the ending sequence of a Saturday Afternoon Special and onto this CD."

Rafael Dyll has provided music and audio design for multimedia applications such as home entertainment systems, music for fashion shows on the catwalk, but above all, classic game tribute CDs and complete soundtracks for current and past video game consoles.

You can find some examples to listen to here.

The soniQfactory music concept is simple: Many modern video and computer games are often marred by lack of musical freshness and catchy melodies, relying heavily on orchestral scores. While this is commendable in execution, gaming veterans today miss driving harmonies and classic synth hymns that bring back the joy of hearing your favourite video game tune – this is where soniQfactory enters the scene. With the spirit of classic melodies from the days

of the Commodore64, Amiga and popular 16-Bit consoles, spiced with next-gen audio coolness, produced with modern equipment and engineered at the highest quality, our music will perfectly enhance your video gaming experience.
