Music Development

AMI/AST

Philip wrote his Amiga and Atari ST soundtracks in ProTracker. When writing for the Atari ST, he used software that converted his MOD files to a custom Atari ST format.

Gameography

The games that have "Composer?" listed credit Philip Nixon as a graphic designer, whilst not containing any audio credits.

Also, Philip says he did not work on the DOS version of Elvira II. He is credited in the game, although it appears to feature new compositions that are different from the Amiga and Atari ST versions.
