A magnificent piece that just keeps building. Deep lovely foundation, clear strings and sprinkled with electronic touches. Classical music and retro combined

Gem'X (Mantronix Edit) - arranged by Dr Future

Review by Grigul, 24/11/2016

Well, I think I heared that one first on a burned CD in my car. When I heared it, my chin falls down and I made my stupiest face I'm able to. Wow, absolutely awesome. One of my absolutely favourites. As mentioned already in my Shout: Great Job, Dr Future. This one is better than the instrumental version.

Fawn of Creation - arranged by Peacemaker

Review by Grigul, 24/11/2016

I think I just heared that for the first time, it was just aired at Slay Radio as a request by a listener. My first thoughts were: Ah, a Jarre-ish tune. I changed my mind while listening to Wow!! Like Jarre himself would play. Peacemaker, well done. Great Job^^

Sanxion - arranged by MRT

Review by wbdeejay, 22/11/2016

Super fun feel to this version. Great chemistry to the sounds used. The bass line is awesome and creative. It's tricky to end a piece well, and I feel that ending is a minor let-down here, But I can't suggest an alternative. Overall, well done.

Panther (uncaged in the west mix) - arranged by Johan Andersson

Review by Grigul, 22/11/2016

Well, I don't like to say that, but - I don't like that track. Don't misunderstand me - it's not a bad one, but not a good one either. The guitars at the beginning are annoying to me. Johan, as a non-musician but lover of classic-country-music I must say: It's one thing to play a guitar in western style, but another thing to form a good melody with them. I think you understand what I want to say with my poor words. maybe I'm to hard with you now, but I can only speak for me. that track is not one of your best. You've made a lot of tracks, some of them are great. this one here - well, let me say: If it's still WIP, you should overwork it (in my opininon). If it's a final release, you should overwork it (in my opinion). As I said: maybe too hard, my review. But hey: I'm just a listener. Dr Future and LaLa, both musicians, have a different look on this track. My advice: Care about what they say, don't care about what I say. ^^

Sea Of Passion (Tribute to Jeroen Tel) - arranged by Found Atlantis

Review by Grigul, 22/11/2016

When I was on holiday this year I burned some CDs for the time I drive in my car to the Hotels. This track was on one of them, I think I never heared it before. When that piece started in my CD-Player, I thought Wow, what's that? Never heared that… woow… awesome… wonderful track, absolutely great… and so on. I heared it one and a half hour, again and again and again. Even today I heared it… ^^ Found Atlantis: Great Job, you made an awesome track. Maybe only for me, but as I like to say If it's only one who loves what I do, I did it well. Found Atlantis, you did. Thank you for that fantastic track. 😊

Suicide Express infinity - arranged by Lello Caliendo

Review by Grigul, 22/11/2016

Well, I've heared that tune now two times today. As I said the the Shout: A solid tune. But nothing more. And that's it on the point: I feel there's something missing. Something that makes that piece to an outstanding one, but I've no idea what that could be. There's also something at the beginning. Lello Caliendo, you took something like a wave in the beginning. The sound is going deeper and is raising again (I have problems to say it in a better way, I'm sorry. I'm not a musician, I can't play an instrument, I even can't read a single note… 😒 So forgive me for my insufficient explanation). In my opinion this wave destroys the beginning. At 1:27 the tune becomes interesting (meant in a positive way) - that leads to my review A solid tune. I personally wouldn't use the snare drum (I guess it is a snare drum - correct me if I'm wrong). I think, a darker drum would be nice here (once again, I've my problems to find the correct words).
Afterall, a good piece, nice to listen to - but not more.

Thanatos (The Piano Dragon) - arranged by Dr Future

Review by Grigul, 22/11/2016

Wonderful remix, lovely chilling tune. When I heared that tune first time (2 minutes ago ^^), I thought to myself Cool, another song for my Bathtube-Playlist. When I'm chilling in my Bathtube I like to listen to relaxing songs and chilling tunes. Believe me: Headbanging to a Metal-Tune while your hair is wet is not so good while bathing - the whole Bathroom will be a mess. So I decided to listen to those tunes I never would listen at work or in my car - chilling and relaxing ones. BTT: Great Job, Captain… errrr… Dr Future. I love it. ^^

Last Ninja 2 The Street Loader Remix - arranged by Warphead

Review by symbols, 16/10/2016

Some nice sounding instruments and all, but the compositions is half-assed and well just a pick and mix of stuff-you-like. It's squidgey and all overy the bit but kind of cool at the same time for its wackyness! Some bad tone mixes and Harshness over softness… feels like a weird dream at times, not sure if you heard much of the original tracks growing up, or maybe you did and just mashed it all up. Next time try choosing just 4 instruments and balancing them and making a good composition. 3/10

Outrun (No Speed Limit Remix) - arranged by Peter W

Review by kjetiln, 20/09/2016

I must say, I like this much more than my own remix from the same year! 😃 Yeah, it's a little dated, but it's still fun, and I really like the variation on the melody in the second half. It gets stuck in your head!

Groovin High - arranged by moog (Sebastian Bachliñski)

Review by Myxtiplyx, 02/09/2016

The drum section is a bit to square for me. It should be a little more - jazzy sort of speak. Other than that - this is a nice peace of work.

Nemesis the Warlock - arranged by Xenobioz

Review by LaLa, 23/08/2016

Several problems here: the arrangement tries to be orchestral, but the individual instruments are not played the way a real orchestra would (the strings are especially cringe-worthy). The arrangement is rather thin to begin with and relies too much on timpani to drive it. The female vocal is a nice touch, although it, too, sounds bad when it's pitched too low or too high. There is also little dynamics in the arrangement which makes the entire tune sound flat.

Bruce Lee (Psycho Mix) - arranged by Bart Klepka

Review by Gannett, 21/08/2016

This is a really nice remix with a lot of dynamic energy hat fits the hero of the title: Bruce Lee! Nice drum'n'bass feel but with good melody and bass and a clever rhythm use of in game sounds from the C64 classic. Well done.

Arkanoid (Blocks On Blocks Remix) - arranged by Ras Bolding

Review by Gannett, 21/08/2016

Lovely remix of the in game Arkanoid tune that contains the melodies we all remember from the original but also some elegant reworking such as a solo played on vocoder that somewhat sounds like in between Kraftwerk and Herbie Hancock. The sounds are really good and show a good balance between 80s and modern electro clash. Plus I have seen Ras Bolding perform this in concert LIVE on a C64!

It does what it says on the tin. However it may seem a little too on the simple and chilled side for some. Not sure if the handclaps in the second part add anything, but some may like them.

Pinball Dreams - Beatbox Theme (daXX Remix) - arranged by daXX offline

Review by iXien, 12/07/2016

Samples are far less catchy and impacting than the original ones. I think this remix is too shy here, too clean and not corresponding with the beat house sound from the end of 80's that Gustafsson perfectly recreated in the original module in 1991.
