Story
I've wanted to remix this one for a while and the 20th anniversary competition seemed a good enough excuse to do it. I seem to be remixing Jeroen more & more but… the guy has a beautiful sense of melody.
The arrangement is all me but… the mixing & mastering is down to the skill & magic of Tomas Danko. He has squeezed every ounce of energy from my arrangement but still somehow managed to keep all of the gentlest instruments & small details in there… Voodoo!

High energy indeed. All elements of the game's soundtrack superbly captured.
Great could have been taken off an SST band album.
This song its on the highway to the danger zone!
Pretty much the perfect remix of Afterburner.

You've done an amazing job of capturing that Sega spirit in the arrangement and instruments. Especially in my favourite section, the break down around 3:15, took me right back to stuffing coins in the arcades during the 80's.

I am also glad Pete had the compo version's mixing reworked by Danko for this RKO release, it sounds so much better now!
