- "None can outrun or equal the power of the original" (by rambutaan, 10 Nov 2002) [2/10]
Great game and it had a great soundtrack based on the 80s hit Megablast by Bomb the Bass. These remixes unfortunately are rather low quality. bomb_the_bass.mod manages to stay on the beat although the bitrate is low. miniblast.mod deviates considerably from the original melody and is unfortunately quite simplistic. Xenon 2 - Megablast.mod 's tempo is too slow and the final mod, xenon2.xm is okay except in the last 10 seconds or so. I recommend the original track if you really want to remind yourself of Xenon 2 rather than these remixes.

Who knows how long I've been searching for this track and now I found it!
It's really great, although it seems a little slow...

Simply incredible, David Whittaker for their quality and quantity has demonstrated to be the best composer for video games of the 80. Xenon2 song, it could have been a hit of the radio.
As curiosity, has somebody seen "Assault On Precinct 13" ? Well, we have to thank the original melody to John Carpenter.
9 points for Xenon 2 and David Whittaker

Mega shooting game many years ago. Music is little poor. Maybe some musicians can make remixes of this tunes. I think more channels, better sounds and little changes to melody we have great tune

Very good game music. Very nice rif for my ears. Very good classic and many remix on youtube with videos.

Facts / description
Info from user leilei to tune leixen2.mod:
It's a retracked version of the original in-game song as accurate as I could make it.
The original game used some proprietary format, so this is all by ear and sample rip.
