STIL comment	Does not cover the arcade version. "Bombjack 1 was based on the old coin op machine. The title tune is a Jean-Michel Jarre cover. We used to copy tunes like this all the time in the early days, I think the legislation at the time didn't cover computer based music, that situation didn't last very long though and we then needed to do original compositions (supposedly). Only tune 2 is from the original arcade machine. I seem to remember that in the original version of the music I used Lady Madonna by the Beatles." (MC)

Funny
LaLa:
Plus points for originality, minus points for unhandled distortion, plus points for fun factor, minus points for not using 'calypso' drums as the lead.
Craze:
Usually, this kind of music is nothing for me. But when making a mix on such a great original tune, I can't help myself. This is good. 😀 If I liked this music style too, I'd give top notch. I think the distortion is cool - like minimal house style.
chilli_uk:
The main is not audible as much as it should be due to the distortion - but you have made the point that this should be done in a calypso drum style ie the metal lids it would be wicked!
nicodaemus:
Clipping, anyone? And I agree: Lose. The. Vocals. Bomb. Jack. Yawn. The rest sounds nice.
condor:
It's nice one, but lack of production take things down. & if you sometime (in future) are planing to rearrange this remix, loose that female vocal 😉
Trace:
Pretty nice one but the distortion is really! Ruin it…
Satanarchist:
A happy piece but the production is awful, especially around the 1 minute mark, the distortion spoils it.
