It's kind of hard to pick them out.. but you can hear Space Invaders for sure. What else?

I always hear it in an arcade making lots of noise when it comes on the store's ipod so it also makes it hard to hear other games.

 
*resurrecting an ancient post* :p

I just recently discovered this track, and I've been wondering about the other game sounds as well.

The sounds at 0:51 are particularly familiar, seems to me they are from an early slide-and-shoot like Astro Blaster, Moon Cresta or Pleiades, but I just cant I.D. them.

Of course, given the late 1980 release date of the Clash LP "Sandanista!", some of the sounds might be from old bronze age games too... there's a car engine sound effect in the song that could originate from any of the 70s driving games.

It's also possible that all the other, non-Space Invaders sounds are just music studio wizardy.

Kyle :cool:
