Some info about this marvellous masterpiece: -Arranger & Conductor: Anfrando Maiola; -Executive Producers: Alessandro Zanni & Stefano Cundari; -Femal Vocal sampled from the video game "Dragon's Lair" (1983): Vera Pacheco; -Narrator: Michael Rye.
This is so amazing to watch. It transported me back to the arcade games in the 1980s when I would watch my friends play this very thing on one of those large arcade booths. It's indescribable having that memory surface after almost 30 years of never thinking about it. All of those scenes - etched in memory and they were all right there waiting to be triggered again. Astounding.
Amazing arrangement! I mean all the fantastic melody lines and hooks one after another are extremely well crafted! There are not that many instrument sounding at the same time (at any moment), but you get the impression that there is more going on. Compare that to today's trance music which builds up to massive layers of sound at the same time gradually and then the breakdown and build up again (the energy levels of the song kind of follows it). It often gets too boring and tiring over time compared to this. don't get me wrong I also like today's music, but I wish more music like this was made today with the more modern sound (Better drum sounds (and different patterns) , other bass lines, gated stuff and overall mixing of today)
I once had a collegue who proclaimed he was a music producer and wanted me to hear his track and then give my review, omg it was dull, boring and lifeless. I said listen to Koto Dragons Legend, there you will find ALL the things your song is missing😂
fantastic clip and amazing song! That game was truly ahead of it's time, especially with other auto-action games like Uncharted being very popular these days.
Me, as always. Btw, I'm truly surprised there's no official music video for this one. It should've looked exactly like this, but, of course, with the 7'' duration, as usual.
0:54 Please save me. The cage is locked, with a key. The dragon keeps it around his neck. To slay the dragon, use the magic sword. 1:22 Dragon's lair, a fantasy adventure where you become a valiant knight, on a quest to rescue the fair princess from the clutches of an evil dragon. 3:12 Dragon' lair, you control the actions of a daring adventurer, finding his way through the castle of a dark wizard, who has enchanted it with treacherous monsters and obstacles. 4:47 In the mysterious caverns below the castle, your odyssey continues against the awesome forces that oppose your efforts to reach the dragon's lair. 5:14 Lead on adventurer. Your quest awaits.
Wow the Music is just so epic and try to combine this with a magnificent video with Cartoon companions. N-joy the Music that formed me AS a teenager back in 1988. The Sound is still alive and much more than valid 32 years after. N-joy for both ears & eyes amigos.
Fantastic song but original version of this song was created in 1987 by my friend Anfrando Maiola ... (The Real artist named Koto...THE REAL KOTO). Zxy music gmbh has stoled the copyrights to Anfrando Maiola...
One of the best Italo tracks ever made....
@@user-li2ix2wb8n I don't think that's Ken Laszlo. He has a higher pitch voice.
What about laserdance?
Klein and mbo
@John Doe Ken Lazlo arrive même pas à la cheville de Koto avec deux titres seulement.
@@RaditzPedro71 oui ils sont bien aussi merci !
Legendary Koto production. R.I.P. Anfrando Maiola
RIP Anfrando, thanks for all those memories!
Just found this gem the other day. Some guy in my Mw2 lobby was playing it over the mic in a lobby. Thank fuck for you kind stranger.
Heard this on a mix tape back in 80s, was mesmerized!

She was so awesome!
Dziękuję za informacje.
Man, everyone involved in this masterpiece is dead. Rip :(
Daphne is a princess worth dying for, over and over again.
I think my heart just exploded, from the amount of pure childhood wonder and excitement this makes me feel!
This is the pinnacle of all man's musical achievements.
pretty much
yes!
Lol yes, and glad I was not crazy when I listened to this all day when I was 14.
Yes, the synths are awesome!
The 80s is the pinnacle of music. Its also making a comeback now. And i am happy for that.
I can watch this for 100 days in a row, nonstop
My favourite italo song when driving on the Deutche Autobahn .The volume goes max up and so does the speed of my car.
Oh wow…I remember playing this as a kid at an arcade. I don’t think anyone had ever beat it. LOL!

Fun classic 80's track and great job on the video
Hi from Poland!
Siemka!
Dem repeating scenes. Gotta love the 80's :D

Thats videos of the game. And the repeating was just for this video. Go play the actual game.
Quanti ricordi in Radio con questa meravigliosa canzone

They should make a 10 hour version of this song so i can listen to it all day long. :D
swedish version remix is also great
Niels Oussoren
Can you give me a link so i can hear it?
BeatBox! Those were the days...
And what about the other 14 hours a day consists of?
YOU WOULD ONLY BE GETTING 10 HOURS THOUGH, DOESN'T ADD UP TO "ALL DAY" 🤷♂️
koto uno de los mejores exponentes del High Energy que tiempos aquellos esa si era musica.
Hi-NRG Instrumental, también llamado SpaceSynth ;-)
Way ahead of It`s time...great synth!
Me encanta este tema, lo escuchado cientos de veces y cuanto más lo escucho más me gusta. Es todo energía.
Rip koto (Anfrando Maiola) ❤️❤️❤️😭
Haha, I remember playing this game way back when. It was expensive to play and I never got far. Showing my age. Good times.
I will never stop watching this 😍🇮🇹🎹🎶
🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹
Eres mi canción favorita, la que me impulsó tanto animo en tiempos bonitos, hoy me eres más necesaria que nunca. Great KOTO FOREVER
OMG ... I've been looking for this song for over 30 (!) years. Thank you so much for the upload (which was, I know, 10 years ago ...).
This is so good that it should be an official video for this great song.
Such an awesome song...Excellent video as well, thanks for posting.

Could easily slip this into a Belgium NEW BEAT SET .... wicked Italian synth disco/ house ... Kyoto ..Classic ...
I just got back from a trip to Big Sur in California. If you ever get a chance to drive it, I recommend this song in your soundtrack.
Are you totally nuts? With all those sharp turns near Big Sur you’ll be driving right off the cliff with this song. Geeezus 😂
Я слухав цю музику у 80'роках ритмічна і мелодійна.super.Соснівка на заході України була в двіжусі.👍👍👍😎
Best italian disco ever
I have this on CD, Great old times! I used to listen this again and again...
fantastic clip and amazing song!
That game was truly ahead of it's time, especially with other auto-action games like Uncharted being very popular these days.
Koto is the very best!!!!
Good music

Great combination of music and video from a computer game. Good job.
A perfect background-song for all all of us who remember Zelda and SuperMario on Nintendo 8-bit ;-)
Today I played Dragons Lair for the first time in my life, I don't know how to describe this beautiful, fabulous adventure. I recommend it❤❤❤
fun fact: based on the no deaths playthrough the game is 11 minutes long... woah
This is the greatest video ever! You win the internet.
You may be right :)

Loved this tune since I first heard it in feb 89. Thanks for reminding me how good it is - my vinyl copy is scratched to buggery due to overplaying!
Always loved this track, and the video just adds to it
The Frog king was so hard to beat! Ah, good old arcade days. Spent a fortune on Dragon's Lair. Should have spent it on real estate instead:)

Maybe you are right, because they replaced him with some michel van der kuy who was paid to compose under koto's name
