STIL comment"Driller, which I did for Incentive Software, was another big turning point for me. They wanted something long and epic, not short and repetitive. Concept-wise, it was the perfect game for me. It was exactly the sort of thing I had been waiting to get my teeth into musically. It took four weeks to complete, including an almost two-week pause in the middle when the Great Storm of 1987 struck the UK, leaving us without electricity or heating for about ten or eleven days. I can remember walking down our road one dark evening, wondering if I would ever get to use the C64 again, and suddenly noticing all the neighbours' lights were finally on again. I went straight in, fired up the assembler and carried on composing." (MDG)

Man this is fantastic. Brings back some mad memories of a childhood youth. Keep it up.
L0rd3vyL:
I'm not always sold on Slaygon's mixes, although I think they are good, they usually don't do anything for me, this one and the one he did with Reyn are exceptions!
Hamlet:
Good associations here. It reminds me of the Deux Ex soundtrack.

Excellent!

Our beloved leader has done it this time! Seriously loving this remix of Matt Gray's amazing SID.
omoroca:
Great atmosphere! I like those heavy, dark electronic sounds, gives a threatening feel to it.
LaLa:
The dystopian industrial feeling is definitely in it. This tune would be great for some old John Carpenter movie. It is a bit monotone, though, I feel there should be more variation on the theme.
C64.COM:
It's a very hard track to remix, but Slaygon has done a very good job.
Chainsaw:
Very good
XxDUSTYxX:

I love it, dark, energetic, would be even better if there were some FX's. Love that snare pitch.

Not Bad.
