18/08/2024

After last year's success another Zzap! Live event was put on by the organizers which was held just last weekend, on Saturday, Aug 17, 2024 in Kenilworth, England. Of special interest to Commodore music fans this year was the music focused Q&A panel which featured Barry Leitch, Jason Whitely, Mike Clarke and Rob Hubbard, and the MC was none other than Peter Clarke. Good times were had by everybody and it was not only an entertaining session, but informative, too. Fortunately, the entire thing was recorded on video, too - check it out at the link below!

Listening Recommendation

 Trick Bag (modified)

Arranged by Dafunk

One of my favorite tunes, the piano is pure class. It's a tune I come back to time and again, truly beautiful.

 Guitar Stardust Space Debris Slinger Medley

Arranged by 0Supereg0

My 1st listen to this remix left me scratching my head a little. So, I gave it 2 more listens.. It certainly wanders off the beaten path but that isn't necessarily a negative in itself. The overall soundscape is pleasing & warm and definitely suits 'Guitar Slinger'. Where I have issue is in the arrangement & execution. There are 'bum' notes in a couple of the guitar runs, early on and; guessing that some or all of this was actually played, I can understand why you have simplified a lot of the faster flourishes & riffs from Jogeir's original. A lot of the middle section has a different chord structure also with minor chords appearing, (again, no bad thing in itself) but it becomes unrecognisable as Guitar Slinger.. I honestly admire & applaud remixes that take original MODs to a new place, (you'll notice I've scored it 'red' for Artistic Skill to reflect just this) but overall it is only a 'good' for me. Some of the ideas in this remix are very good, only let down a bit by the execution.

 Spaceballs - State Of The Art (No Corruption Mix)

Arranged by Gareth Wood

Captures all of the character of the original but for modern ears. Love it. Beautifully done. Big time nostalgia too - can still see the dancing girls.
