STIL comment"Without doubt the game which is most closely associated with me. The highscore tune (1) is a copy from the original arcade machine. However, having listened to the in game tune which was a complicated harpsichord tune using lots of channels, I decided to compose my own ghostly tune. Again the tune is not completely original using elements from several sources including Chopin and other bizarre sources (my mom's old organ vinyl records from the 70's). I'm still mystified about why I went for that strange percussion but it seems to work somehow." (MC)

Melaure:
Excellent
z80:
Flawless victory. Too bad that the SID makes me sick…
Shark:
Good one!!!
Dr. Bongo:
Wonderful! I love it.
Tyler Durden:
Great! Rock on dudes!!!
gator:
Brilliant, let's have some more G&G remixes.
XxDUSTYxX:
Very nice arrangement and good guitar playing, but the drums could be more powerful IMHO.
gokselprince:
Good arrangement, good sound
Strawinsky:
Ah… A consequent rock-band-like arrangement of Ghost'n'Goblins. Excellent!
Nebdar:
Very good guitar but in my taste the need an little tweak, sharpening the sound, and maybe some other background sounds
Amok:
Awesome guitar playing in the intro. Overall very enjoyable.
NecroPolo:
This is an enjoyable version. Needs improvement on drums (not alive enough), slide accuracy and overall mixing. The intro is outstading and I like this cover after all. Great guitar work.
LaLa:
Excellent guitar playing. The lead could be more pronounced, but the rest is pretty good.
nicodaemus:
I agree with Mayhem: Tweak the volume a bit, maybe add some small amout of reverb to the lead as it sounds very dry and this could very well be an outstanding tune!
O-san:
Very nice guitar lead. Reminds me of Tom Morello around 2:54 - *wahao* *wahao* *wahao* 😊 gj
Mayhem:
Lead is a little quiet at times, but an excellent rendition nonetheless.
Satanarchist:
This is great, there's nice harmonic lead guitar work and its a contender for the best G & G mix ever.
omoroca:
Although this Classic Rock style is not my favorite genre, I must say, this one's not bad, not bad at all!
romeo_knight:
Good rendition in general but hey the mixing is really not good at all.
condor:
Nice guitars in here… But I really hate the SID.
