Rambo highscore - arranged by OJ OscillationReview by LaLa, 20/08/2019 This is really, umm, weird, it's strange, it's totally out there - and that's what I like about it. It's like OJ Oscillation took the original SID, created a remix out of it, then he said aw, f--k it!, and then twisted and mangled the hell out of that remix - arriving at what you can listen to here. Very unusual, but quite enjoyable. |

Gordian Tomb (Extended PowerPunch Edit) - arranged by Zee EnergizerReview by LaLa, 20/08/2019 I find it impossible not to move my feet when listening to this great collaboration! Technically perfect, I really enjoy it! |

For Joanne (Experim. Aural Maneuvers) [Vinyl Mix] - arranged by LaLaReview by Poke16384, 19/08/2019 A little Jean-Michel-Jarre / Vangelis influence here methinks. Overall, a nice feel to this track with a good faithfulness to the chord-structure of the original.Towards the end, (around 3:50-4:05), the timing gets a touch loose between the choir-voices and the arpeg-bells. For me, the drums could have been a little more up-front to peg the timing down against the choir-voices which are strong in the mix. It's a pleasant listen overall - Nice One LaLa! |

Paperboy Hi-Score (Angelized) - arranged by LaLaReview by Poke16384, 19/08/2019 Wow! The master of reviews does a remix… The concept is original, (sheep & campfire) and suits the acoustic guitar which is well executed and sets the mood. How fortunate you are, Imre, to have a choir on hand by your campfire, ha ha!Putting vocals in, makes this an unusual remix for this website but fair-play to you, for doing it. The remixes & covers that we upload here should push the boundaries. The melody and chord-structure of the original are kept faithfully with a couple of nice, tasty guitar variations. I almost believed you had a perfectly pitched singing voice, (just a couple of glitches in the pitch correction). My only crit - The lead-vocal is slightly ahead of the rest towards the end… Do you know what? Overall, this is different and out of the ordinary… and I think it deserves a decent score, just for that! (have you been listening to my remixes with lots of sounds behind the music? LOL). |

Crying in the Delta Wind - arranged by Mutherpluckin' BReview by Flidd, 13/08/2019 Awesome cover. Raw with a live feeling to it. Little mistakes here and there but it doesn't matter. |
|
Dragons Lair 2 - The Romantic River Epic - arranged by MaindrianReview by Flidd, 13/08/2019 Pleasant enough, but has some minor tuning and timing issues. And the overdriven guitar was unnecessary. |

Cybernoid 2 (reggae mix) - arranged by Johan AnderssonReview by hobs0n, 13/08/2019 I'm in heaven. I love reggae and I love chip (especially Sid) tunes and to hear this tune just makes me cry in happiness! |
|
Atmosphere - arranged by MRTReview by redm, 12/08/2019 This is amazing, even after a good few years I listen to this often. It is the best producing, remake I've heard on this site. Full stop 😊 |

2rrican (The Turrican2 Medley) - arranged by Graphite 3.6+Review by FunkyM, 07/08/2019 Having tried to create an Homage to Mr Siebold's SID Score to this Sensational sequel, I can appreciate this Metal-ised Medley all the more, for featuring the Bulk of the Tunes, up to and including the Title Screen, and Level 3-1.But yeah, Turrican- ah, excuse me, 2rrican ROCKS! |

Guitar Slinger (Armandox 2015 Remake) - arranged by ArmandoxReview by aGGreSSor, 29/07/2019 I bought an Amiga to listen GuitarSlinger and play in SuperFrog. It was a long time ago… |
|
Thanatos (The Piano Dragon) - arranged by Dr FutureReview by aGGreSSor, 29/07/2019 It's sound great. The composer hasn't lost a single note from the original melody. Lowest bows. |
|
Monty On The Run (I've Heard This Song Before) - arranged by druuReview by JonSolo42, 27/07/2019 Agreed, it's a great arrangement, and I don't even love DubSt. But as my son says, the old west piano sections are amazing and really make this one stand out. Love those transitions. |
|
Enigma Gun (Extended Mix) - arranged by neriakXReview by nugged, 26/07/2019 Mates, say that that echoing sliding far sound makes all this composition over the top? 😊… It just fires all sensors for me: P |
|
Guitar Slinger (Armandox 2015 Remake) - arranged by ArmandoxReview by nugged, 26/07/2019 Relaxed ending, and very memorable and reminiscent beginning of that real Slinger module I lived with for a long time. |
|
Gods remix - arranged by AknotronicReview by nugged, 26/07/2019 That how really my childhood should sound! It's nice, melodic, well-arranged, balanced, complete and… wow! |
|
Druid 2 - arranged by Instant RemedyReview by V1nkly, 24/07/2019 This remix is good it has some kind of nostalgia. make more of this type music please. Its good |
|
End of All People (2nd) - arranged by Into DecayReview by LaLa, 23/07/2019 Honestly, I was not familiar with this JB tune before. This is not bad for thrash metal. I'm also curious what's Mordi's involvement in this track. I am guessing he is the lead singer?… … 😉 |
|
Auf Wiedersehen Monty & Commando - arranged by Jeroen TelReview by omoroca, 22/07/2019 I know, you're supposed to be objective in a review. But as a fan of Hubbard *and* Tel, I can't help but to get goosebumps all over and listen to this cool stuff over and over and over all day long |

JT In Space (Man On The Moon ReDub) - arranged by DMCReview by LaLa, 05/07/2019 Most excellent!!!First of all, what great timing on this release: on the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 Moon landing! Second, this is one really cool retro space disco infused, yet very modern sounding production! The sound bites, the vocoded vocal, the over-the-top drums, the arrangement, the mixing - everything is just top-notch all around. I really, really enjoy it! Thanks for sharing it with us! |

The Last Ninja - The Wilderness - arranged by MOSchopsReview by LaLa, 02/07/2019 An objectively authentic idea: performing this classic Last Ninja tune on nothing but traditional Japanese instruments! I'm shocked nobody thought of this before…Although I highly suspect this is all sequenced stuff with plugins (vs. an actual live ensemble), the arrangement and the instrumentation is still very convincing. Really nicely done! I'm looking forward to more performances in the same style! |
|
Artillery (shape demo mix) - arranged by Gerd BahlReview by LaLa, 15/06/2019 Very well produced, I especially like all the subtleties of the lead (including that quick trill that was present in the original, too - nice touch). I think the lead sound is a bit overfiltered at times (just let it rip!), and overall the arrangement is lacking some sort of extra energy that I find hard to describe. But it's quite an enjoyable remix as is. |
|
The Human Race (Goldrunner) Piano Live - arranged by LightSideReview by LaLa, 15/06/2019 I said it before and I'll say it again: I'm a sucker for piano covers, so any piano piece will automatically get upvoted by me. 😊 But I think this piece could've used more variation in dynamics, it's sort of flat throughout. Especially if this is a live recording, not a sequenced piece. |

Yie Ar Kung Fu 2 - arranged by Dr FutureReview by LaLa, 15/06/2019 There are many things I like about this remix. Its graceful intro (With a cowbell! You can't go wrong with a cowbell! 😉), the oriental sounding instruments, the wonderful arrangement, the balanced mix, etc.But here's why I'm a bit harsh with my vote: the melody line is rather flat. The lead instrument is very, very nice, but I miss all the slides and trills that make the melody line more interesting, more emotional. Reyn captured (and enhanced) that beautifully in his remix on Galway Remixed, and since then I can't even hear the original SID without those in my head. Compared to that, the melody line here sounds flat and a bit lifeless. But other than that, this is an outstanding production, showing great craftsmanship. |
|
The Human Race (Goldrunner) Piano Live - arranged by LightSideReview by Markus Gecko, 12/06/2019 Simple and effective. Good mastering too, I enjoyed the panning and separation. SID piano cover can be a bit of a cliché, but this impressed. |
|
Yie Ar Kung Fu 2 - arranged by Dr FutureReview by Chilli-Uk1969, 12/06/2019 Stunning in So many ways lots of little tricks and a very very good interpretation. |
|
Vendetta - arranged by ColmarrReview by krommenaas, 06/06/2019 Great choice of instruments as always. The wobbly theme that is the climax of the original starts before the halfway point here, then this version works towards an ever more frantic and noisy rendition of the brooding main theme, a bit Front 242-esque, followed by a pensive coda. Love it! |
|
Gyroscope - Halloween Theme - arranged by Peter GantarReview by LaLa, 29/05/2019 The core theme is somewhat lifeless and repetitive. And it doesn't really scare me, sorry. Despite all the added sound FX. |
|
Bionic Commando Tune 6 - arranged by Allister BrimbleReview by stechmann, 15/05/2019 Great version of a great tune. keep up the good work, hope to see more in the quality |
|
Asterix And The Magic Cauldron - Gaulish Village - arranged by Peter GantarReview by LaLa, 08/05/2019 A valiant attempt at an orchestral arrangement, but the instruments all sound flat and boring. There's a total lack of dynamics throughout the tune, too. Not bad for a start, but this could've benefited from more time in the oven. |
|
Microprose Soccer Theme - arranged by Greg EatonReview by LaLa, 08/05/2019 This! 😊 This is how I always should've imagined this tune: as oom-pah music! Perfect marriage of source material and remix style!But I think the piece could've used some more careful mixing: it all sounds too loud, too harsh. Probably because it has too many high frequencies in it. |
