Story

With this remix I've reached 100 published remixes on RKO! Phew, that's a LOT of mixes and I'm glad to have been so productive over the years. 😊

 

So for this occasion I decided to produce an extended, new version of my Rambo High Score-remix from 2013. Mostly due to the requests I've received for an extended version. But also for it's importance to me. It was my first track to reach Number 1 on the all-time C64 chart, and gave me enough confidence to produce more remixes.

 

So here it is; a newly-recorded, rearranged and extended version of the Rambo High Score-theme! 😊

One year later…

An outstanding rendition of the Rambo High Score tune! I especially like when at 1:02 that bass comes in, then at 2:15 that piano track - very nice addition. And that trumpet during the last minute or so is just icing on the cake. I really like how it all builds up to that final minute.

Thank you for gifting us this extended version!
