A trippy version of the reggae tune that plays as you traverse MeLee Island in the 1990 DOS game.

Seattle Area studio video-game music cover project, headed by Mad-Mike.
Project 2A03 is a one-man video game music cover project, spawning all the way back to the dark days of the Atari 2600, all the way forward through early 90's PC and SNES games. The nucleus was an instrumental on the original LIthium Demos from 2001 called "Burning House" which had an 8-bit NES game like melodic quality to the music, so I initially started making tapes under the name "Game Genie" eventually changing it to Project 2A03 to prevent copyright issues.

Story behind the song
This is sort of a composite of the lacking PC speaker version, and the MIDI version, as I grew up with the former, but had grown somewhat acquainted with the latter from tinkering with PC's post high-school. Funny part is, there was an earlier recording of this song that I lost the tape to a long time ago (I think it's with Lithium's old bassist Brian actually, I might ahve left it in his car, oh well). I re-did it in 2004 and I like this version better than the original, though the original was more "piratey" than this version.
