| STIL comment | "Anil [Gupta] asked me to go and meet Roger Gamon. His son had a program called Flight, and they wanted some intro music for it. Anil said to take along some samples. When I arrived, their front room was cluttered with hardware and C64 samplers. I remember saying that I could do with one of those. I took along two sample pieces. One was something in the vein of Those Magnificent Men In Their Flying Machines, which they were really unimpressed with, but the second one rather bowled them over. It was a tune I'd originally written in 1975; I'd found that using the ADSR on a saw channel gave the bass riff an echoey effect, and two pulses slightly detuned from each other played the main theme. I was hired! But I still never got that sampler..." (JD) |
LaLa:
Over the years this has become a big favorite of mine. Lots of the great touches, and the fact that its rhythm parts ways with the original actually works to its advantage.
LMan:
Extremely well done dance mix. Reminiscent of It's a sin at times.
humorguy:
Trance me away to a beach I say, then let me just dance for a night til today, when the sun is back - then just trance me away… (Repeat)
amigamer:
Maybe it's because this was my first computer game ever but I like this very much. Great arrangement and nice touch with the jet thrust…
Tas:
I think for a trance tune it has come over very well. The Bassline for example is very well done and there's some subtle touches that sets it away from the bog standard Trance remake. There's quite a bit of invention into this mix that sets it apart
carpii:
As a standalone trance track, its well done. As a remix of 737, it just doesnt sit that well for me. The main melody feels stilted just to fit in with the trance. Strange choice of tune to remix I guess, but overall its an interesting listen anyway
omoroca:
Boring but technically Ok. (Looks like this has become my standard comment for any Trance remix)
anaconda:
Leadsynth kinda ruins the VG mark. Else it's an ok tune.
KF:
It's ok…
eliot:
Ok
Dumper:
Good allround feel to this nothing great, nothing bad but could of done with being a bit shorter.
exo:
Quite good and it shows promise. For what it presents though, it appears somewhat lengthy. I became aware of the original through the masterful and virtuous Tim Forsyth remix and although that is still my favourite I cannot regret more remixes of it.
infamous:
Reminds me of 1995 when trance was just coming into the british conciousness and we were being introduced to the paul van dykes and ferry corstens of this world… Not a bad effort at all… Cannot grumble as a certain english person would say 😉
Makke:
Vanilla trance. It's pretty ok, but nothing that'll make your trousers fall off.
Dan:
This worked out actually very well as I was waiting for it to all go horribly wrong, excellent use of the sid, just a shame it was trance 😉
bordeaux:
Sounds more like a circus then an airport… Also failing to find the 'trance' part… Or was that just me?
Waz:
It's trance for trance's sake. No matter how good the trance part it, it's just not the right way to approach this SID. And it just doesn't convey any feeling apart from being another throwaway trance effort. Could do better. And it's far too long!
