OVERALL REMIX64 VOTE:

arraknis:
TOP!
ggeudraco:
If a remix can give you such an immersive experience with just OEM Dell speakers and WMPlayer with its WOW, it deserves several ROTY trophies!
decibel:
Excellent tune and very evocative especially with the inspired choice of having a Churchill speech mixed in.
infamous:
Absolutely tremendous… Nothing else to say… Nothing else needed.
orsted:
Out-fucking-standing
eliot:
Yes! Due slay-radio plays it on and on, I guess its more popular then the voting will suggest 😉 the end could be better - maybe in an other release?😊
LaLa:
Technically, this is well executed, the arrangement is not bad, either, but something is missing here that prevents me from rating it high.
Tas:
Really nice take on green beret. Sounds so original yet so retro at the same time. How does he do that? Love the break, it certainly gives it a green beret feel.
Dan:
I was hooked on this by the second listen, a fantastic take on the original sid
Waz:
Very nice and melodic, and lots of neat little touches that do the original justice. Grows on you with every listen, too.
Skitz:
AWESOME! There aren't that many remixes of this SID and this one does it justice… Not sure if the chord progression is right in places though 😊
LMan:
Cool spacy synth violin!😊
Ryrynz:
Sounds alright, but weak instruments let it down.
lagerfeldt:
Nice!
anaconda:
Good conversion, the lead was a bit off in the beginning, but the rest is well done.
omoroca:
I don't like the war sounds. This remix is only average.
