Story
Yep, it's ANOTHER Sanxion re-mix, but I had to start somewhere, and this is my first C64 remix! It all seems a million miles away from the days off Rock Monitor, and spending hours triming the odd millimeter off the interupt bar, but it's great to be mixing music that considering it's limitation at the time, introduced us to some awesome composers with imagination, and the ability to make a game worth buying just for the composers name attached to it. Hope you enjoy.

I've listened to about 10 of these Sanxion remixes so far and this has to be the best. Why? Because it captures the spirit of the original without being too derivative. The voices and beat are nigh-on perfect and it stands up to repeated listening.
Mistakes in the melody and the chords! Not bad anyway, but I prefer Abbott's version from the BIT1 album!
Radio gaga style.. But yes.. I agree with starfire, great mix, it takes you there..

If you are looking for a perfect Sanxion remix, download this one from Lou Gray: is absolutely fantastic!! This very rich electronic version of the Hubbard classic sounds like a real J. M. Jarre production, a must if you (like me) love electronic music.
The only problem with this remix is in the ending: the music fades too fast, without any reason: it seems like has been cut or, worse, unfinished. I'd like Lou would give a better ending to this, otherwise, masterpiece.
