Review by C64_Gamer, 17/09/2022
The original of this mod had Jan Hammer's fingerprints all over it. You can spot elements of both Miami Vice and Beverley Hills Cop in the sounds used and the rhythm. So, although this remix keeps much of that rhythm, the sound and atmosphere of the original have vanished. I'm not looking for a 1:1 copy but I feel that this remix misses many of the subtle musical references that are in the original which immediately transport us to the early 90s. My only other gripe with it, is that the arrangement doesn't take the tune to anywhere new or fresh. I know i'm criticising somebody with an enormous reputation as a remixer but I feel this is a good remix and nothing more.
