Golden Dance Classics. Italo-Disco Superstar plays for the Dragon's Lair game. Rescue princess Daphne from the clutches of an evil dragon... / bestmelodies
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.
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.
Miałem walkmana na kasety i głośniczki do niego ...... i koto. Niezapomniane chwile. Niestety dla sąsiadów nastąpiła zmiana sprzętu i nie tylko ja mogłem się cieszyć tym fenomenem. :D
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😂
This is The Best. I cannot help but stop here to watch this Awesome video. I've watched this at least 40-50 times already :-) This should be "Official" :-) Also the equalization of the vocals, mid-range and bass are Incredible :-)
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 !

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.

Vera Pacheco passed away in 2021 :(
She was so awesome!
Dziękuję za informacje.
Daphne is a princess worth dying for, over and over again.
RIP Anfrando, thanks for all those memories!
I think my heart just exploded, from the amount of pure childhood wonder and excitement this makes me feel!
Heard this on a mix tape back in 80s, was mesmerized!

Astounding.
Dem repeating scenes. Gotta love the 80's :D
That's how the game worked.
Thats videos of the game. And the repeating was just for this video. Go play the actual game.
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't deal with it. It's too good.
I can watch this for 100 days in a row, nonstop
Oh wow…I remember playing this as a kid at an arcade. I don’t think anyone had ever beat it. LOL!
Way ahead of It`s time...great synth!
Fun classic 80's track and great job on the video
Best italian disco ever

I got old but the music is still fresh and dynamic 💃🕺💃🕺💃🕺💃🕺
Haha, I remember playing this game way back when. It was expensive to play and I never got far. Showing my age. Good times.
This is so good that it should be an official video for this great song.
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 ...).
Koto is the very best!!!!
Quanti ricordi in Radio con questa meravigliosa canzone
My childhood electronic music!!!!
Thank you very much for posting it!👍😁
My favourite italo song when driving on the Deutche Autobahn .The volume goes max up and so does the speed of my car.
This is the greatest video ever! You win the internet.
You may be right :)
KOTO

This is fucking awesome, and Princess Daphne is now my waifu.
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 is Life!
Me encanta este tema, lo escuchado cientos de veces y cuanto más lo escucho más me gusta. Es todo energía.
Rip koto (Anfrando Maiola) ❤️❤️❤️😭

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!
Absolute TUNE!!!

Miałem walkmana na kasety i głośniczki do niego ...... i koto. Niezapomniane chwile. Niestety dla sąsiadów nastąpiła zmiana sprzętu i nie tylko ja mogłem się cieszyć tym fenomenem. :D

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❤❤❤

Dif patterns is against industry..

Я слухав цю музику у 80'роках ритмічна і мелодійна.super.Соснівка на заході України була в двіжусі.👍👍👍😎
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:)
✌😎🤣🤣🤣
Underbar musik. Detta kan man lyssna på för jämnan och digga till.
"You control the action..."
This is The Best. I cannot help but stop here to watch this Awesome video. I've watched this at least 40-50 times already :-) This should be "Official" :-) Also the equalization of the vocals, mid-range and bass are Incredible :-)

Gostei top demais❤
Que show! Adorei este clip. Saudades deste tempo.
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 😂
Splendid video!
They don't make it like this anymore .. Great job!

To save the dragon, use the magic kiss. 😙♡
