R.I.P. Ben Daglish (C64 tune legend)

[Mulletino]

Ben Daglish, legendary C64 SID composer has died, age 52.

The Commodore 64 had some awesome composers and Ben was one of them, the machine had such a great audio chip that they could compose masterpieces that still evoke emotion today.
(I only posted the other day in the "what CD are you listening to" thread that I was listening to a SID chip tunes CD, Ben was one of the artists on this)

Damn Chubby Gristle & Mask III (ZX Spectrum) were two games that I only loaded to listen to the music. They always feature on my chiptunes playlists. Sad news. 52 is no age to go. Only 5 years older than me.

Very sad news and taken far too soon. Yes, Ben produced some great C64 music that added so much to the games. RIP.
