Disgrace (Dreamers Remix) - arranged by LeaReview by LaLa, 13/02/2019 You have a beautiful voice (I'm assuming it's you singing, Lea…), so you should flaunt it: you should bring it more to the front in mixing. Especially when more instruments start playing and when you add reverb to the vocals, it becomes harder to understand the lyrics, because your voice gets lost in the mid-frequencies.Otherwise, I really like how you enhanced the vocals with various techniques throughout (layering, vocoder, chorus, etc.), the production quality is top-notch, the arrangement is outstanding, the instrumentation is spot-on. I really like the filtered intro, too, that's very modern of you. 😊 A fantastic debut on RKO, I hope to hear a lot more from you!!! |

Disgrace (Dreamers Remix) - arranged by LeaReview by spavatch, 11/02/2019 I love the way it begins and develops further in a trance-like fashion, with vocals adding to vocal trance feel 😊 |

Commando - arranged by SHEN LONReview by wobbler, 09/02/2019 This sounds like something I would have made myself (not to say that I would actually have managed to produce, sound wise or arrangement wise), but the overall style. Like it a lot. And as LaLa wrote earlier; perhaps a tad too much reverb, but the again who am I to complain? I might even try a remix version of my own, just to see if I could reach this standard😉 |

Commando (mich am Allerwertesten) Remix - arranged by Frank AbbingReview by Markus Gecko, 09/02/2019 Like the experimentation. Got a very nice minimal feel, with a tinge of EBM and dog bark synth. |
|
Cobra (Extended SID Mix) - arranged by Anthony WaltersReview by Markus Gecko, 09/02/2019 Very well crafted. I was doubtful at first, but really well done. Anyone else just done remixes with just additional sid voices? |

Firelord (from 8Bit Symphony) - arranged by Glyn R BrownReview by Grigul, 21/01/2019 Well, I have a problem with that track. The old Remix from 2002 was epic, is still one of my absolute favourites. But - which word is higher than epic?Let me say it this way - This track here is the most epic track ever!!! I'm absolutely happy to see you back, Mr Brown. Last years you were very silent. And you, Sir, are now my first nominee for ROTY 2019. |

SuperFrog - World 4 - arranged by grooveboxReview by onlineamiga, 17/01/2019 Music is always subjective as we all like different stuff. But listening to this was like a rollercoaster of oooh!! i like and ooooh maybe not. I love the electro backing music, and the drops etc. Sounds great. But maybe using a harder synth sound instead of the original flute sound for the main tune might have given it more power. I also think the tempo is a little too fast for this tune.But hey these are just how I hear it. No reflection on ability and I absolutely love the fact that people like yourself are making awesome remixes of great Amiga tracks 😊 Please keep making more stuff! I wanna hear more! |

Times Of Lore (from 8Bit Symphony) - arranged by Glyn R BrownReview by LaLa, 12/01/2019 What a wonderful journey you've taken us on with this epic piece! This sounds bona fide professional. I can't even imagine the time and effort it must've taken you to create this Times Of Lore mashup! What can I say - THANK YOU! |

Firelord (from 8Bit Symphony) - arranged by Glyn R BrownReview by LaLa, 12/01/2019 I didn't think your superb symphonic remix from 16+ years ago could be made any better. I was wrong, so wrong!The flute sounds just wonderful (makes me wonder if it was written with Ben in mind…), the choir sounds even more emotional, and the dynamic flow of the arrangement makes it sound very cinematic. I really like the parts where the melody line quickly switches between the various sections of the orchestra. Even though it sounds similar to your previous Firelord arrangement, it's clearly very different - and even better. I'm sure somewhere up above Ben is listening to this, too, with a big smile on his face… |

Liljedahl is God (Green Beret+Rambo) - arranged by MordiReview by pad, 02/01/2019 That start gives me goosebumps indeed! The rest is also fab! Perfect backdrop for coding. 😃 |
|
Goldrunner - From Past To Present - arranged by gibsReview by nous, 01/01/2019 Be careful, this is one of the most emblematic Hubbartunes, remixed to perfection. Can't stop listening to it. |
|
Lightforce - arranged by Markus SchneiderReview by LaLa, 31/12/2018 Very soundtracky, a perfect homage to Rob's classic. It doesn't fall into the trap of some other remixes that are also technically excellent, but tend to get boring as the tune goes on. Instead, Markus managed to inject several careful changes into the arrangement and instrumentation that keep the momentum going while also keeping with his chosen style for the remix. Your love affair with Lightforce, Markus, really shines through! Thanks for sharing it with us! |
|
Commando (Super Joe Rmx) - arranged by UraniummindReview by LaLa, 21/12/2018 A valiant mega-effort which is brought down by a few serious issues. The arrangement is varied enough to keep my interest up throughout the remix, but some odd dissonant sections, questionable choice of instrumentation, and sorely lacking post-processing make it sound worse than it really should. |
|
Arkanoid Highscore - arranged by Jeroen TelReview by Markus Gecko, 19/12/2018 Should have been called the needed 20 years ago mix… Very very Ferry Corsten and Veracocha-esq. Too old and sober now to really enjoy this |
|
Last Ninja 3 (in - out mix) - arranged by Gerd BahlReview by symbols, 19/12/2018 Funky 80's vibe - check.Wavy Synth - Check. Snare Powa! - Check. Well composed and classic Gerd Bahl throw-ins! Feels quite Demo-scene-ish too, quality! |
|
Last Ninja 2 Song 12 - arranged by DJ CyberdogReview by symbols, 19/12/2018 The Effort counts. Very limited instrument range and some bad notes at that, the drums are safe and unoriginal as is the composition. A good effort for a first submission but I'd review it with fresh ears of your own and soon you will discover the lack of overall quality. |
|
Last Ninja Wastelands (loader - memorial mix) - arranged by Gerd BahlReview by symbols, 19/12/2018 Duration: Could be longerInstruments: Soft and well balanced Technique: Room for more Originality: Great changes to the original |

Primary Star - arranged by DafunkReview by sparcie, 17/12/2018 Love this song, when life gives me crap i'm being comforted with my hobby |
|
Enchanted Lands - Intro (Enchantedness) - arranged by SilokReview by Silize, 06/12/2018 Jochen es de esos que siempre te transmiten algo especial y mítico en sus creaciones. Es pausado y progresivo, melódico y potente. No se puede pedir más bajo mi punto de vista particular. |
|
Druid 2 - arranged by Instant RemedyReview by Nihilanth, 05/12/2018 It differentiates from the original piece of music. But it still has a great melody, and I first heard this song in a Half-Life 20th anniversary tribute. It feels nostalgic listening to this song, and I was hoping I could use it in a GoldSrc-based video game I was making. Keep the tracks coming! |
|
Atmosphere - arranged by MRTReview by P.G.G., 02/12/2018 Jeroen Tel did a nice theme long time ago. Thomasz have been made an astonishing remix of the year. Great talent. Keep a good work in future. |

Thrust power - feat Jesper of PPOT - arranged by David FilskovReview by CaptainSoftware, 30/11/2018 Great music and Always good its from Rob Hubbard, this is swinging right the pan out. Great job |
|
Xenon 2 - Megablast (2017 Oldschool Mix) - arranged by HurryKnReview by Ryrynz, 28/11/2018 Keeps very much in line with the original but adds so much more… Gonna be hard to top this. |
|
Xenon 2 Megablast - arranged by Eight.Bit CommandoReview by prowler, 24/11/2018 Very good work for a first time remixer! Remix style is very time-accurate with the 90's wibe, and yet with great quality and mixing. Love it! |
|
Zoom (NecroPolo C64 Hypercharger remix) - arranged by NecroPoloReview by LaLa, 26/10/2018 Loved it the first time I heard it at Árok Party 2018! Then I was thrilled that we were able to include it in the Johannes Bjerregaard charity album. And I am very delighted it is now available on RKO, too.It's an amazing remix of a much underrated JB tune. It has, of course, received proper NecroPolo treatment with overdriven and distorted sounds, containing so much SID-caffeine that it pumps me up every time I listen to it. ROC=K ON, C=ommodore!!! |

Last Ninja Wilderness loader - arranged by SHEN LONReview by Kikstart, 13/10/2018 Having listened to Last Ninja and played the game hundreds of times, this loader for me was a nice surprise. you should be commended for such a fabulous remix! |
|
Monty on the Run (rockmetal cover) - arranged by Vaggelis PapadopoulosReview by LaLa, 13/10/2018 I encouraged Vaggelis in a YT comment to upload his remix here, too - and I'm glad he did! What I really like in this remix is that he actually plays every single note of the original on his guitar: the devilishly fast runs, the slides, the arpeggiated non-melodic effects - I'm in awe of his technique! |
|
Last Ninja Wilderness (8bit Ninja mix) - arranged by UraniummindReview by eobet, 12/10/2018 The sounds and mix for this is really, really good. I just hope there would be a version without the silly quotes. |
|
Defender of the Crown - arranged by ColmarrReview by eobet, 11/10/2018 It's cool to hear this tune, and the execution is very interesting. Unfortunately, for me personally it falls apart in the middle when you get the Theremin like lead. |
|
Nemesis The Warlock - arranged by SoundLogicReview 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. |
