OVERALL REMIX64 VOTE:

Kaitain:
This is just fantastic.
vurtx:
A stunning remix and even more so considering its samples and not the real deal… A real testament to what can be done.
pallas:
Awesome sound!
KarmaSlave:
O_O… This game, and this song, gave me nightmares and fear of death when I was a child. This song makes all those nasty monsters all cuddly for me! Genius!
soppa:
Although the sax sample does really sound awkward at times, this tune still captures that smoky jazz club feeling which I like, like someone mentioned would be one of the best if was redone with real lead instruments.
firefox:
Love the production. A bit dirty and smoky jazz club feeling. WOOt!
ifadeo:
Just outstanding!
devilhood:
This is great, and I want to love it more, but it just SO needs a live sax to make it the most gorgeous remix ever. Perhaps notate the arrangement and get a live band to play it! That would be simply magical and something you should definately consider.
Dumper:
Wow, everything just blends together beautifully. Great work Mixer.
k_rostoen:
Very, very good. Now go ask Shirley Bassey and Leonard Cohen if they would do a duet to it.
radulescu:
Superb, very creative take on this beloved tune!
cinemaniac:
Now this is the sort of music that I always long to hear. I've heard several hundreds of remixes and this one is the best there is! No kidding, this one plain rocks!
dafunk:
It's so easy, magical and all with fake instruments? Mixer, you're a genius muvvafokker!
infamous:
Wtf's going on here? Absolutely BRILLIANT it sounds like a real band… There are no words do describe how awe inspiring this is.
jemym:
This is one of the more original remixes I heard for awhile, just great 😃
condor:
Hah, I just wanted to say that intro really remindes me to Sergei Prokofiev's Montagues & Capulets… Then I saw your comment 😊 Excellent in every point. But, it would have been so much better if it was darker (just like prokofiev's piece).
vosla:
Very LIVE feeling. Very different take on ol' Nemesis. Love it!
klosterkatten:
Awesome tune, I love every bit of it!
chilli_uk:
Sounds like the Pink Panther - but STUNNING - yes the mixing problems make it sound live and perhaps this only enhances. It gets top marks for ORIGINALITY - and it is a class tune.
Analog-X64:
Awesome!!! The Sax, the Brushed drum sounds… Very Live sounding like I'm at a Jazz Club!! Sweet!!
Dan:
Fantastically original, I want this one performed live!
Ziphoid:
Pure aural pleasure treatment that easily leads up to an exstatic eargasm galore… Top notch! Not my cup of tea, but it's just TOO good to NOT put a red on this one.
Chris Abbott:
For me, easier to admire than love. I wonder what a big band fanatic who knew nothing about C64s would think…?
Waz:
Seems to me that many of the remixers who started life as SID composers do the best remixes. Here is another case in point. This not only is a different take, but it sounds fantastic the way it's done. A contender for best remix of 2006. Listen. Now.
Makke:
This is nothing short of pure genius! I've been wanting to make this kind of remix for ages, now I don't have to. Mixer beat me to it, and did it a whole lot better than I ever could! Brilliant!
Tas:
Wonderfully original!
kwed:
One word: Whoa!
LMan:
Where'd he get that Big Band? Genius.
8_bit_fingers:
Classy!
Melaure:
Nice sax
anaconda:
Pure Quality from Mixer.
LaLa:
Great jazzy arrangement, but that sax - I find it nauseating. It's just too fake, too over-the-top, too much. I have no problems with the rest, though.
snorski:
Sweet…
bexs_79:
Very good arr, very good samples except saxophone
eliot:
Must agree the sax ruins an outstanding contribution…
komet:
Very original approach and a nice jazz bar feel! My only objection is that it gets a bit repetitive.
bizarro:
I love the authentic feel of the drums - but unfortunately the sax…
exo:
Original and well done. Although I can't quite enjoy the soundscape here. Not something you hear everyday on kwed.😊
maindrian:
I should be sitting in a french cafe by a river, smoking cigarettes in black and white when listening to this. Very noir, but oddly magical in places too.
zyron:
I love everything except that saxophone-sound which I find quite annoying & misplaced. A flute could have worked better.
dimmignatt:
Really great work on this one!! The bad mixing you talk about only gives it somewhat more of a realistic and Live-ish feel to the song!! Great work
romeo_knight:
It's really great (especially the spatial atmosphere) but misses some highlights. And I have to agree with Skitz a bit.
Skitz:
I agree this is such a lovely remix and excellently produced. However, the fake sax just ruins it slightly for me…
sebuko:
Well, nice try. But where is the sid feeling in that song? Overall nice work. But the Sax sounds very fake to me and doesn´t fit very well.
zine:
Good stuff but not exceptional
g3r:
Arrangment, production is brilliant. Why's everyone complainig about the sax? This is not my cup of tea at all though.
damien:
Mmh, there's something in it that does not make me want to listen to it again, still would have made the Grim Fandango soundtrack easily 😊
omoroca:
Good for the abient swing sounds, but Poor for the lead sounds - all of them! Makes an average of Average.😉
thepiano:
Too much noise, reverber and fake orchestra
crik:
Not so good swing for idea and fake sax
c64glen:
Hubbard's dark epic, made jolly with an awful sax.
