Nemesis The Warlock - arranged by SoundLogic

Review by eobet, 11/10/2018

Usually people go full out with the medieval symphonies, but this is a nice mix between chip and medieval themes. It's very faithful and has a good sound mix. The orchestrated sounds could be better and deeper, though.

Last Ninja Wilderness loader - arranged by SHEN LON

Review by JemyM, 09/10/2018

A remix that keeps the original song, making up to date and add a dance vibe to it. The reworked bits blends right in as if they were part of the original. A professional remix and an instant classic of a rarely remixed tune.

Flimbo's Quest Story Remix - arranged by Uctumi

Review by mikey, 27/08/2018

Love this tune, and this is not a bad version. The base line is a little too overpowered/dominant for my tastes, but it's a good boppy little version.

Last Ninja 3 - Wind - arranged by Gavin Lucas

Review by symbols, 31/07/2018

The best wind of Last Ninja 3 so far, its a challenging tune. I can see that some of the instruments were a challenge. It resembles the original really well and I guess more work on this seeing as its now 13 years old would be great to hear from this composer.

Last ninja 3 - Earth (2018 mix) - arranged by Crono

Review by JemyM, 24/07/2018

Earth is one of my favorites in the Last Ninja archives. This is a very good rendition of the tune that was much needed. It have enough new to not clone the original, and yet enough old to keep its authenticity allowing me to consider it a 'remaster' as much as a 'remix'.

Nemesis The Warlock - arranged by SoundLogic

Review by LaLa, 17/07/2018

Opens with a very interesting combination of a choir and rough electronica, and later on it sprinkles it with some cinematic orchestra. It all builds up to a crescendo, which is suddenly interrupted by acoustic guitars. Then it resumes the more bombastic style, but we never really get a resolution out of it. Instead the piece just… ends. I think a bit more cohesion in style would've helped tremendously.

Last Ninja (Level 5 The Palace) - arranged by SoundLogic

Review by LaLa, 17/07/2018

I am very confused by this remix. Starts out in a very nice, serene oriental style. But that lasts only until about a minute a half when there's an inexplicable change in tone and style to more aggressive electronica. Then I get confused even further when at around 2 minutes the guitars appear. What? Why? By this time the opening oriental style completely disappears in the background. And then all this is capped by the original SID towards the end. Umm, okay…

Overall, this tune has all the hallmarks of a decent production, but the minute-by-minute stylistic changes make my head spin.

Rambo Loader - arranged by SHEN LON

Review by mike_c64, 13/07/2018

This track made me create an account here, so that I could comment on this one. There are good tracks and then there are really really good tracks… and then, sometimes, once every third year a track like this shows up. I can listen to this like 15-20 times in a row. It gives me that special feeling every time. Thank you Shen Lon.

Last Ninja (The Wilderness) - arranged by Cytex

Review by JemyM, 13/07/2018

For Last Ninja 1, Last Ninja Wilderness in-game is the most popular, having almost as many remixes as the rest of the tunes combined. In that heavy competition, Cytex remix of Last Ninja is the most authentic while still being a darn good remix. If there was ever a remaster album of Last Ninja where only one remix per tune is picked, this is a good nominee for the 4th track, and that is a honor.

Cybernoid II - Title (Enhanced) - arranged by MusicWizard

Review by LaLa, 12/07/2018

The notes are there, the arrangement is fairly faithful to the original, but it just sounds flat and emotionless. The electric guitar and the bass are both rather unexciting, for example. Needs more variation, better mixing, more vibrato, more effects… anything to make it sound more exciting.

Last Ninja Theme (Grand Orchestra) - arranged by Seaweed

Review by xgener8or, 11/07/2018

Not pointing fingers here but I think I recognize this midi as the one I made and put out online in 1999. Could be coincidence of course, but I recognize a lot of little details that I did. A bit messy choice of sounds on this also.

Ace II - arranged by Philip Bak

Review by LaLa, 04/07/2018

I am somewhat conflicted by this remix.

On one hand it has a high level of craftsmanship, showcasing many things (instrumentation, effects, breaks, etc.) modern professional productions tend to have.

On the other hand, it feels to me like an ambitious project that falls short of delivering all the goods, especially when it comes to the arrangement.

For example: awesome intro, it really got me going! But after the quick break at 0:35 it just continues on in the same style - I sort of expected an explosion of sound at that point. In fact, at 0:56 it adds some brass that sounds cheesy to me. But I kept waiting and hoping - until about 1:30 into the tune when I finally realized this just won't evolve any further. Which is a pity.

What's there is unquestionably solid and enjoyable. Its style frequently reminds me of The Alan Parsons Project. But even after listening to it several times, in the back of my mind I just keep wondering: this could've been so much more…

Didn't play the game AFAIK… didn't recognize the tune… but MAN… what a tune!!… pure genius from 2min17sec and forward… the winning ingredient to me is the excellent bass track… in fact the tune has grown to become one of my all time favorites

Plastic Pop (I Miss You mix) - arranged by Mordi

Review by Ice00, 30/04/2018

Plastic Pop is one of Danko best melody realized onto SID and Mordi had extended it into a song that fit 100% with the original work. I really love the voice applied over the instrumental version. I use this song for phone ring-tone and usually I let it play a lot before answer to the call…
