I Remade My SCUMM Bar SID Cover After 4 Years… (Monkey Island)
Back in 2022 I created my first C64 SID version of the legendary SCUMM Bar theme from The Secret of Monkey Island ⚓🎶
Now, in 2026, I revisited the track and redesigned most of the instruments.
In this video you can hear both versions back to back:
🕹️ 2022 vs. 2026
Same melody — four years of growth in SID sound design and arrangement.
It’s always fascinating to revisit older work and hear how much changes over time when you spend thousands of hours with the SID chip 😎🔧
Which version do you prefer?

Why does EVERYTHING sound better on the SID? (Monkey Island 🐒🏝️🏴☠️)
Why does EVERYTHING sound better on the SID? 😎🏴☠️🎶
This time I took legendary tracks from The Secret of Monkey Island and pushed them through the iconic sound chip of the Commodore 64 — the SID 8580.
The result? Warm Caribbean vibes, quirky pirate melodies, mysterious tavern themes, and that unmistakable retro punch only real SID hardware can deliver.
From the iconic main theme to the SCUMM Bar, Melee Island, and the Monkey Island atmosphere itself, these timeless adventure melodies feel surprisingly at home on the C64.
Whether you grew up with classic point-and-click adventures, pirate stories, or the Commodore 64…
this is a crossover you never expected but absolutely needed.
⚡ Recorded on real C64 hardware
⚡ Carefully arranged within authentic 3-channel SID limitations
⚡ Classic Monkey Island moods reimagined in pure 8-bit energy
Which Monkey Island track should get the SID treatment next — what’s your pick?
