Lotus Turbo Challenge 2 End Tune - arranged by Tony Fluke73 WirenReview by Oxx, 12/04/2024 While the execution is perfect, the lead at 01:47 is above all expectations, the reasons this is not all three REDs for me are: 1. The arpeggios, which are the main characteristic of this tune in my opinion, are not the same. Somewhere in the original tune the arpeggios play isolated and that is the greatest part for my humble ears and the signature of the tune. 2. At 01:56 the part of the melody is different than the original, this may well be intentional. I listened to the original one to comfirm this. Overall, this is again great great work Tony. Let's imagine you went to a friend's party and someone played this live! Amazing. |

Turrican 2 - Title (Encore500) - arranged by Jogeir Liljedahl & RaptureReview by Radiarion, 14/02/2024 I stumbled accross the turrican games by accident when i … aquired.. some games and these were amungst them. I remember putting the disc in, hearing this track and didnt actually play the game for about an hour, just sat listening to this awesome sound, and this is one of the best remakes Ive heard!! Its freshened up a little, but kept everything the original was and more. What a great job!!!!! |

Battle Squadron - HiScore (Encore500) - arranged by TomskReview by LaLa, 19/01/2024 A uniquely elegiac remix that is becoming Tomsk's signature style. Absolutely wonderful and so full of emotions! The instrumentation is a skillful combination of violins, strings, guitars, and drums (and probably a bunch of other instruments, too), and the overall arrangement has a wonderful arc to it. So well done, I really enjoy it! |

Occ-San-Geen (Encore500) - arranged by FirefoxReview by LaLa, 17/01/2024 Occ-my-god! What a great uptempo, dancey, staccato-heavy remix! It sounds like a modern chiptune mixed with heavy Italo disco and it really takes me back. Fantastic! |

Rallye Master (Encore500) - arranged by Romeo KnightReview by LaLa, 15/01/2024 Personally, I think the originalRallye MasterObarski tune is a bit uninspiring (ducks hail of rotten tomatoes thrown his way…), but Romeo Knight makes the most out of the material with a genius idea: make it into a Depeche Mode pastiche! It's spot on! Really well done, the early 80s style is instantly recognizable. |

Leander - Title (Encore500) - arranged by Glyn R BrownReview by LaLa, 15/01/2024 The original one is fairly cinematic, too, so it's a perfect fit for that special electronic-cinematic treatment that only Glyn can provide. He is in full force here commanding a spectrum of instrumentation that several Hollywood music producers would be envious of. Just majestic! |
|
Amberstar - Title (Encore500) - arranged by Jogeir LiljedahlReview by LaLa, 15/01/2024 OMG, that intro sends chills down my spine! A great emotional piece. My only wish is that the vocal was featured more than just in the intro. |

A Prehistoric Tale - arranged by Jogeir LiljedahlReview by SoDa7, 25/11/2023 What a wonderful version - it gives a modern, fully enjoyable vibe while at the same time keeping the same feel as the original version! |

Endtheme (Encore500) - arranged by Jogeir LiljedahlReview by Jackal, 07/11/2023 Such a wonderful Vangelis feel to this piece. I couldn't help but shed a tear at it's absolute beauty. I had to go seek out the original, and I'm blown away by the vision he had to take it to this level. If you close your eyes, it's like being in 1986 all over again. |

A Prehistoric Tale - arranged by Jogeir LiljedahlReview by Poke16384, 07/11/2023 Unmistakably Jogeir.. but a really faithful remix of Johen Hippel's original.. The soundscape is SOOO nice, spread out and airy.. There's just enough modification here for Jogeir to put his own signature on it.. (and clearly a lot of respect for the original work).. Lot's of lovely playing in the performance, especially the bent & slid notes of the melody.. My ears are in paradise… |

Endtheme (Encore500) - arranged by Jogeir LiljedahlReview by LaLa, 14/10/2023 I fell in love with his version right away and I can't stop listening to it - Jogeir extended the short original into a beautiful five and a half minute long chill piece, and I'm so glad it also features that wonderful melody line of the original prominently. Sorry, all other talented remixers, but we have a winner - this is my absolute favorite from the Encore500 album, bar none. |

Complications (Encore500) - arranged by Peter ClarkeReview by Danko, 09/10/2023 Well, as I recall things it was the other way around with the C64 version happening later, but I digress… Friendly banter aside, this track shows Peter Clarke's strength as a professional musician on guitar and keyboard which is something I've been suggesting for him to get back into after a decade of fake symphonic orchestral remixes. So glad he did, because this one is one of the funkiest tracks on Remix64 this year and so different from all the numerous Complications remixes out there! |

A Piece of Magic (The Armandox Treatment) - arranged by ArmandoxReview by Enigma, 13/06/2023 You took this mod to a whole new level! Great choice of lead sounds and remaking this. It's got a litlle bit of this 80's synthpop vibe with it even! Much improvement on the original!!! |

Guitar Stardust Space Debris Slinger Medley - arranged by 0Supereg0Review by Poke16384, 06/05/2023 My 1st listen to this remix left me scratching my head a little. So, I gave it 2 more listens.. It certainly wanders off the beaten path but that isn't necessarily a negative in itself. The overall soundscape is pleasing & warm and definitely suits 'Guitar Slinger'. Where I have issue is in the arrangement & execution. There are 'bum' notes in a couple of the guitar runs, early on and; guessing that some or all of this was actually played, I can understand why you have simplified a lot of the faster flourishes & riffs from Jogeir's original. A lot of the middle section has a different chord structure also with minor chords appearing, (again, no bad thing in itself) but it becomes unrecognisable as Guitar Slinger.. I honestly admire & applaud remixes that take original MODs to a new place, (you'll notice I've scored it 'red' for Artistic Skill to reflect just this) but overall it is only a 'good' for me. Some of the ideas in this remix are very good, only let down a bit by the execution. |

Superfrog - Ancient level (Ode to Hathor remix) - arranged by SoundspawnerReview by fluke73, 05/05/2023 This is a really fresh remix! Wonderfull atmosphere in the begining. Love the great stereo separation. Over all it's a really fresh take on this song. The only let down was the ending that was a bit too abrubt. |

Jaguar XJ220 - Moody Breeze - Speedy Breeze - arranged by CoupsReview by RomanoImigranto, 03/04/2023 Good job !! Choice of sounds gets you on unexpected time travel. I like the chords and lead sounds. The original sound of car engine its great at the beginning. As for me some drum parts could have been a little bit more varied. But overall very good aragment. |

Mobyle - arranged by StuReview by Isacco1975, 11/03/2023 I am not familiar with this tune, but I like those lounge sounds, especially the electric piano and the organs. It's all well mixed and every instrument is in the right place. Great mood 😊 |
