Excellent composer who has remained obscure, probably because almost all of his work is on the Amiga and Atari ST, and on not-particularly-popular games, at that. He's like a way lesser-known Chris Huelsbeck.
A Prehistoric Tale:
Wings of Death, stage 5:
Chambers of Shaolin:
Turrican 2 Atari ST version, stage 1-2:
Post more if you've got any favorites from him.

He is only an obscure composer for people who had little exposure to the European 16-bit music scene. Growing up with Atari ST and Amiga he was one of the biggest names around and had quite a reputation, not just as a musician but also for his sound drivers (especially on the ST). It's a shame he left the industry so early. Btw, that Wings of Death video you posted doesn't play the music correctly. Here is a better version.Another track from Wings of Death (Atari ST) - Crystal World Virtual Escape (ST Demo) - Ending Ghost Battle (Amiga) - Stage 1 Also, anything in this video:

It's a shame he left the industry so early. I'm talking "obscure" from the Americen console-centric perspective that overwhelmingly dominates gaming discourse, which completely ignores the Euro home computer scene like 99% of the time unless it's to mention Great Giana Sisters as a "crazy game trivia fact!!!!!" or something.
