STIL comment	"I got the phone call from Mark [Cale] asking me to write some level tunes - I wrote the music, went down there [to System 3] to meet Archer Maclean (? I think it was Arch that put the driver in.....), got offered Mark Cale's slightly-dodgy-import-status left-hand-drive BMW, said "no thanks, I'll have the cash please" and that was that." (BD) Q: How was Anthony Lees to work with? A: "Only met the guy once - on that one day - he said 'hi' - I said 'hi' - that was about it." (BD) The titles of the individual tunes found below are based on as they appear in the game.

Comment:	"I did six tunes for LN, the first of which was the one involving the creepy jungle music (....which was and still is my favourite) - the inspiration is hard to nail down, but it was probably the film 'Apocalypse Now' - very dense, troubled and scary moods were evoked." (Anthony Lees)

Comment:	Although the tune is credited to Anthony Lees since 2001 in HVSC, the music player of this tune is by Ben Daglish. Ben doesn't remember making this tune and also he has no idea how the tune ended up being in his player if it was made by Anthony Lees. It could be that the music was credited to Anthony Lees because Anthony claimed to have made 6 tunes for the game while actually 5 are made in his player. Since Anthony passed away, we can't verify it anymore and it will be a mystery who of the two actually made the tune.

Comment:	This is also the tune for "The Inner Sanctum".

OVERALL REMIX64 VOTE:

balloonhead:
Thrashy style. Needs more choreography and finetuning with drums ans bass
omoroca:
Brave attempt! Lots of wrong notes, and the sound quality is a bit - let's say: raw! But I like the idea and I love the original SID.
raven_squad:
As others have mentioned, mixing aint good. I am guessing you did mixing with headphones or with laptop speakers. Anyhow this is pretty close to the original and that is pretty hard song to cover, so yellow smiley from me.
symbols:
I like that you have attempted this sone, and I hop e the reverb is for a concert-feel, but its head bangin' A bit nuts for some, but this is a great tune and tricky to remix I think. Needs more instruments like the old arp-stylee.
bastard:
Wow!
Waz:
Sounds a bit rushed, and the mixing lets it down somewhat.
LaLa:
Sounds like a rushed production. Poor mixing, uninspiring groove, hardly any feeling in the guitar playing. This needs a lot of cleanup.
Skitz:
I can see what they are trying to do but the EQ/Mastering and overuse of reverb make this an extremely muddy remix.
condor:
Mixing!
Makke:
What Skitz said.
Quarex:
Nicodaemus is right on target. This would be fun to hear live, but it just made me want to skip to the next track otherwise. Obviously great technical skills, though.
MORBID:
Terrible drums, terrible mixing… Check out xxDustyxx's or Mind Movement's version to learn…
prowler:
If you're really drunk I guess this could work…
eliot:
You did take some pills, didn't you? Slow down and focus!
brix:
Urgs…
finnr:
I like the hectic chaos idea, but percussion and instruments seems to weak.
nicodaemus:
Wow, indeed. I really hope this was live, because if there was even a slim chance that this was really mixed on a PC, the person should get a full-year ban on any effect-tabs the utilites have to offer. The lack of any intro doesn't help the case.
Nebdar:
It hurts while listening
