Abrunhosa & Bandemónios – Review
The World of CD-i Chronicles #24
Here is the 1st review of a Digital Video on CD-i title, that means you will need the Digital Video Cartridge to play this title.
As I am Portuguese, I had to start with a Portuguese CD-i release of course, a Portuguese exclusive title.
I am not a fan of Abrunhosa & Bandemónio music as I do not like his way to sing (just like if he talk instead of singing…).
Thank you Alan Bradford for offering me this title. Alan was the owner of Philips CD-i Zone Facebook page, now used by someone else without asking for permission to use it…
SOME HISTORY:
Pedro Abrunhosa & Bandemónio developed by C.I.T.I. in 1995, the very first Portuguese Multimeda dedicated to music and video for CD-i.
Today he is doing a solo career. The Bandemónio ended in 2010.
C.I.T.I. with a good experience on CD-i titles has been chosen to release this title that provide a very good amount of multimedia resource and options!
