Ghost 'n Goblins - Orchestra Cover - arranged by NordischsoundReview by TheTune, 15/10/2022 Great orchestral selection of instruments. A little more dynamics in the instruments played would have been nice. But otherwise a very great soundtrack that I really enjoy listening to. |

Is That All (Timeless Is More) - arranged by WobblerReview by Shargo, 13/10/2022 Obviously electronic sounds that almost makes the speaker warp into another dimension combined with traditional blipp - I love it! |
|
IK+ - arranged by Steve FosterReview by LaLa, 08/10/2022 Those occasional bubbly arpeggios in the background (e.g. @ 1:22) - love it. The entire mix is rather low on volume, though, could've used some boost. The drums could've used some help in the mixing department, too. Overall, a cool idea in need of some refinement. |

Cybernoid II - The Alt-Rock Mix - arranged by Peter ClarkeReview by wbdeejay, 08/10/2022 The live music sound is awesome. A very accurate recreation with lots of soul included. |

Opus II - 100 years of demos (Cinematic64.com) - arranged by SlaygonReview by Danko, 07/10/2022 This becomes very emotional to me, not only because I happened to have written the original version. Not only because I was not even a teenager at the time. No, this is very emotional to me because I made this SID as self therapy in a very dark period of my early life. And Slaygon has managed to convey this impeccably. |

Commando (The Train Back From Birmingham Remix) - arranged by WobblerReview by Methanoid, 05/10/2022 great tune, even better if theres a version to be had with no vocals at the start. |
|
Green Beret Blues - arranged by Marcel DonnéReview by Waz, 29/09/2022 Very Bladerunner-esque and some gorgeous atmosphere in this one. It takes all the best moments of the original and gives them room to breathe, without losing its feel either. |

Falcon Patrol II orchestra version - arranged by Nadin0xD400Review by virgi, 28/09/2022 i really appreciate the instrumentals,it gives back the game's vibe. and i'm fond of classical music,so it's pretty satsfying to hear it with this amazing game. |

International Karate - arranged by OJ OscillationReview by LaLa, 26/09/2022 One thing you definitely nailed in this remix is the bass sound. Damn, it's good! One thing you definitely missed in this remix is the guitar - it doesn't sound like a real guitar to me, and I think it just screams out for a real one. I am also not a fan of some of the arrangement, where e.g. the percussion in the left channel is mixed with a filtered synth and some sparkly pads and just a bunch of other things. Sometimes less is more… Lots of neat ideas in this remix scattered all over the place, and kudos for covering the IK tune in its entirety, but as a whole this just doesn't work for me. |

Falcon Patrol II orchestra version - arranged by Nadin0xD400Review by Jam, 25/09/2022 Those were fantastic times. I always loved the weird sound of the C64, but now a familiar tune in such a great arrangement - well, that's fantastic. Nadin has a great sense of the possibilities and the end result is really enjoyable! |

Falcon Patrol II orchestra version - arranged by Nadin0xD400Review by ruczlajos, 23/09/2022 Really constructive, great composer! I love it! A promising future awaits the young composer! Congratulations! |

Green Beret Blues - arranged by Marcel DonnéReview by Armandox, 22/09/2022 Beautiful! Interesting and intelligent phrasing in your solo's. Also a very distinguished mix and master. Very pleasant to the ear! Goeie Marcel! 😉 *both thumbsup* I have to ask out of interest and peace of mind for my ears and brain…: Luftrum's Vangelis for Omnisphere? |

Beroot Olejuuri (Your still my number one) - arranged by Stello DoussisReview by D400, 21/09/2022 What a beautiful idea - Absolutly love the instruments and the solid and nice composition and vocals !! Really great musical piece of art!! |
|
Green Beret Blues - arranged by Marcel DonnéReview by LaLa, 17/09/2022 Another masterpiece of fusion from Marcel's studio. I am a huge fan of Vangelis, and months later I am still depressed by his passing. And, of course, I am a huge fan of SID music, too. And Marcel is the amazing musician who is at the intersection of those two, here masterfully combining the style of Blade Runner Blues with the melodies of Green Beret. Marcel, words cannot express how much I appreciate your remixes, they mean so much to me on so many levels. Thank you! |

Green Beret Blues - arranged by Marcel DonnéReview by slaygon, 16/09/2022 So many things going on here with how Marcel layers things. Just listen to those oscillators! Not only is he masterfully playing on the lead motif, but he breaks it down and then builds it back again, now Vangelis style. Teasing of something just beyond the horizon, leaving you wanting more. And I do want more than this trailer track with visions of a smokey room with Deckard interviewing Rachael. |

Rastan - arranged by Glyn R BrownReview by nd4spd, 12/09/2022 What can one even say about this remix? It has the perfectepicfeel to it. If you've ever listened to anything from Two Steps from Hell, this is right in that same wheelhouse. Leave the tune alone Glyn, it's perfect the way it is. |
|
The Last V8 (Metal Tribute) - arranged by XxDUSTYxXReview by Waz, 07/09/2022 Very enjoyable and plenty of metal as you drive along with the most broken C64 game controls ever. It's very well made and just a little of the feel is lost for me, but kicks hard anyway. Definitely a sign of greater things to come later (see the 2020 Tusker rework!) |
|
Fist2 - The Legend Continues (feat. Vaggelis) - arranged by XxDUSTYxXReview by Waz, 07/09/2022 You want a hard rock and metal section for Fist II? Well, look no further. It's as if Neil Brennan himself reformed his band and played it this way. Thoroughly enjoyable and keeping the spirit of the SID intact too. |
|
Cybernoid II (The Revenge) - arranged by Mutherpluckin' BReview by LaLa, 06/09/2022 This would be your typical I actually quite like this, has a certain oldschool prog-rock feel to it. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'll have to fire up my bong and my lava lamp while I listen to it once more. 😉 |

Grand Prix Circuit - arranged by jensa86Review by testacorsa, 05/09/2022 Well done! I am very impressed by your ability to keep itlo-fi. The dry sound, especially the drums is spot on. The Pad soundwith delay on the first beat from 0:53 really takes it to another dimension, but still stays true to the spirit of the song. I imagine this is what Kristjan Hatlelid would have made it sound like, if the c64 had the ability back then. 10/10 . Absolutely ♥ it. |

Ace 2 - Remastered - arranged by OxxReview by Eivind Sommersten, 05/09/2022 I really like this - a good take on the original! There is still a lot of headroom left in the mix though and I feel perhaps the low end is slightly left out and that could be causing it. Maybe just a bit more attention to mastering in general would help here. There is such tremendous growth in your mixes - in no time at all you will be on top, not only here! |

Falcon Patrol II orchestra version - arranged by Nadin0xD400Review by Gabiwan, 05/09/2022 I loved this game, it reminds me of my childhood. I love it, very good music. Congratulations! |

Ace 2 - Remastered - arranged by OxxReview by LaLa, 05/09/2022 WOW! A huge improvement from your first version of this remix! Luckily, you kept the same overall arrangement, which I already liked in your first version. But you enhanced the sounds and the mixing in this one by leaps and bounds. I love the added vocals, too - they're sometimes subtle, but definitely improve the song. You injected a tremendous amount of energy into your arrangement with your tinkering. Very impressive, very well done! |

IK+ remix - arranged by a-MaceReview by Oxx, 23/08/2022 The beginning is so promising, I can't help feeling a bit disappointed with the rest. But all in all (after listening to it for multiple times), I think I liked the arrangement, the altered parts of the melody etc. Just one note , I think the part starting at 02:58 deserves a good lead instrument and some sophistication, but the supporting elements starting at 03:14 compensate for it. Most of the melodic parts are recorded (or programmed) without velocity fluctuations (if my ears are not failing me. If this is not so you can always correct me) Will listen to it once more now 😊 |

Terra Cresta - arranged by Johan AnderssonReview by Tas, 19/08/2022 I agree with Tim. This needed to be longer and as Tim superbly says - We needed to be taken on a journey. |

Rambo High Score (RKO100 extended rework) - arranged by Johan AnderssonReview by LaLa, 18/08/2022 One year later… An outstanding rendition of the Rambo High Score tune! I especially like when at 1:02 that bass comes in, then at 2:15 that piano track - very nice addition. And that trumpet during the last minute or so is just icing on the cake. I really like how it all builds up to that final minute. Thank you for gifting us this extended version! |

Falcon Patrol II orchestra version - arranged by Nadin0xD400Review by Joecat, 12/08/2022 Like a russian military orchestra! It is a real epic war hero music! Very good! |
|
Commando (Extended SID Mix) - arranged by Anthony WaltersReview by al.x, 28/07/2022 I love this! It's the SID music we know and love! Please, give me more! |
|
Terra Cresta - arranged by Johan AnderssonReview by LaLa, 19/07/2022 Just when I was getting into it with the vocoded voice setting up the saga - it ends. This entire remix feels like an intro to a much longer piece. |
