Music
The tape version of Trantor came with a song on side B. The song is the mono music track "The Fight" by the rock band Resister (Tolster/Oliver)
The original recording above is 8-bit and quite poorly recorded. Here is an edited (declipped, DC bias reset, hiss removed, EQ altered) MP3 version of the original:
Trantor 2
When you complete Trantor a message is displayed that Trantor 2 will soon come from Probe Software. Of course, nothing ever came out of it.
