Shouts
Makke shouts:
I quite like this. This mash up idea works exceptionally well!
Skitz shouts:
Support SLAYRadio! Morse code rules and this is very nice remix of the excellent Rambo loader. The guitar lead hits a few bum notes which ruins it for me :(
Tas shouts:
This is very very good, and if it wasn't for the odd errors in some sections I might have given this a red.
Dan shouts:
Kinda works... Wish the mixing had been a touch better on the guitar parts but hey, its Blue Monday ;)
kwed shouts:
Unlike that Last Ninja+Confuzion job of yesteryear this one really works. Proper way to do a mashup. Oh, and the morse code got changed since it made the rounds on SLAYRadio.;)
Chris Abbott shouts:
Very good. He's put the tune into a minor key to make it fit better with Blue Monday, hence the melodic note changes. Strip the guitar and there's a dancefloor filler here...
Waz shouts:
This falls into the category of original tune + New Order, yet it works. The execution's there, it sounds very nice and clean. If done in a more original style with similar instruments, it'd be even better.
jaytee shouts:
Lovely stuff
westerling shouts:
Yeah! But I actually don´t like the minor part so it´s close to yellow.
c64glen shouts:
Like it, but needs more hobbits.
floaf shouts:
Cool :-)
romeo_knight shouts:
Nice, works well but does not stand out.
hazel shouts:
Nice one.. I'm not that fun of the guitar selection though.. But still.. This one rocks..:)
aero shouts:
This is good, however it really never lifts
eliot shouts:
Some nice ideas, but the drum-section dominates the song, the leads are too far in the background... Rework needed ;)
chosc shouts:
GREAT Mr. TRON!! Nice.
Analog-X64 shouts:
Cool Remix, its like a Mashup of New Order / Rambo and Miami Vice :) Awesome. Goes on my MP3 Player :)
kai shouts:
Veeeery 80s :) Great stuff!
anaconda shouts:
Good use of instruments. Good arrangement. A bit too common. But a well done remake.
weasel shouts:
Very nice idea mixing New Order with Rambo!! :-D Really great and fun!! Pretty close to an outstanding rank though!
the_jinx shouts:
Great track Tron.. Just too bad it made Boz scar me for life ;p
LMan shouts:
Very nice idea. Not perfect in execution, but you get quite attached to it after listening a few times.
hillsman shouts:
So-So Intro but an excellent, exciting and original interpretation after that. Great stuff! 2017 Update - Still the best Rambo Loader Remix!!
omoroca shouts:
Good use of the electric guitars and the New Order sample. Not my cup of tea, though!
Ultra Maximum Prime shouts:
Once that guitar riff hits this mix picks up. Not bad.
Zilog shouts:
Incredibly good! Both tunes blend in exquisitely!!
fatal_error shouts:
Wow :D
Nightshft shouts:
Best version of Rambo Loader here if you ask me. Awesome!
Sargon shouts:
Great work! Better than the original sid!
Melaure shouts:
Very Good Tune!
NecroPolo shouts:
Very nice work! It's full of energy.
datucker shouts:
Very nice stuff, good craftmanship
Viceman shouts:
Best song ever!
migu shouts:
This is incredible! Since I'm fan of both Galway and New Order tunes this is one of my all-time favourite remixes! :D 18.12.2014
LaLa shouts:
One of the best power-remixes of the Rambo Loader. I keep coming back to it!
Tamzin shouts:
SO GOOD!
Grigul shouts:
Ah, Rambo Loader, another one of the oldest tunes I've ever heared on Slay Radio. And I still like it. Great job, Tron.:-)
jokesoldier shouts:
What a perfect fusion between two very different worlds!

It's the turn of the nice, short, sweet review here. Sometimes people can be just a little too analytical. Maybe it's because I'm just a listener and not a composer. Anyhows, does it sound good? Yes. Does the combination work? Yes. Does the switch to a minor chord work? Yes. Does it get better with every listen? Hell yes. Nuff said.

For those who don't speak fluent Morse: it spells out DONATE TO REMIX.KWED.ORG (twice, in fact)
