Xenophobe remake - arranged by Tollis offlineReview by Jackal, 19/07/2025 If you're gonna just load the mod file and assign vst's as the instruments, you NEED to recreate the pitchbends! The incorrect note at 0:25 & 0:55 is a full note out of tune ! it's supposed to slide up to the next note. Overall though, the instrumentation was quite well picked, but there's a bit much reverb, there's a click on one of the kick drum sounds too that really got on my tits. It's a good start… but you can do better. There was an interesting bass sound that plays once at 1:28 and then simply doesnt play again. Did you just give up on that idea ? |

Tetris part 1 - arranged by KrakuReview by Jackal, 01/07/2010 First off, this is a terribly difficult piece to do any sort of remix… Other than a transcription with enhancements… It's also one of my favorite C64 pieces. Overall an excellent job. I'd definitely not be afraid to go overboard with the percussion in part two, think NIN's Piggy… I did feel that the bass sound that comes in at 3:00 should have been more like a distorted rhythm guitar… |

Shoe 2008 - arranged by The Mighty Bogg offlineReview by Jackal, 04/09/2008 A nice pleasant mix. Limited by the choice of instruments, Overall though I felt it brought life to a piece often overlooked. Good to see The Mighty Bogg is still kickin😊 |

Green Beret Full Orch - arranged by Allister BrimbleReview by Jackal, 12/09/2007 Excellent work Allister, definitely one of Galways strongest pieces, and love the bassoon work… Attention to detail sets it head and shoulders above the other remixes… |

Mindsmear (Orchestral Mix) - arranged by ACPReview by Jackal, 02/09/2004 Excellent stuff!!! I thought I was never gonna see one of my tunes remixed on here😉 Thanks for taking the time! You made my day 😊I liked the brass runs in the background, its a hard tune to remix, the original was such a ramble in the first place… You did well not ending up playing Pachabel's Canon… |
