Comic Bakery (feat Hanna Kappelin & Morpheus) - arranged by o2

Review by canuck, 27/05/2005

Okay, while I'm not the one to push forward and tell the world how much I love this or that… here and now I have to make an exception.
To date I thought no arranger could get close to Instant Remedy's mix of Comic Bakery (and please don't misunderstand, IR's mix is still out of this world and I have 'tortured' my wife by playing it at least a million times) but this one catches up and then some.
While I have to disagree with other reviews that this has Jean Michel Jarre written all over it it sure spells K R A F T W E R K. Rightfully so, Kraftwerk have defined electronic music like nobody else after them. Might as well aim at the best. Enough talking, time to rate:
Technically this is a work of beauty, the artistic impression is right on par but I deduct the obligatory point for nostalgic impression because the Acapella approach just doesn't bring those old SID flashbacks to mind.
It's a good thing because I re-learned how uniqe and cool this song actually is because the mix doesn't just COPY, it re-defines…
Technique Outstanding
Artistic skill Outstanding
Nostalgia factor Outstanding
Overall rating Outstanding
