STIL comment

"I told [Electronic Speech Systems] what I wanted the game to say, and when they asked me what kind of voice I had in mind, I said I was imagining a fiftyish English guy, like a James Bond villain. I was told that they happened to have such a person on their staff, so, instead of hiring an actor, they let him take a whack at it, and I thought he was just fine. I never met the guy who provided the voice, but, to my knowledge, the recordings were not altered or processed, apart from being digitized." (Comment by Dennis Caswell, creator of Impossible Mission)

OVERALL REMIX64 VOTE:

putzi:
The Yello-ish approach is very nicely done, cool track but maybe a bit long.
carpii:
I can appreciate the work thats gone into it, but at 15 minutes, its just too long and a bit dull, sorry
brix:
Almost like listening to an audio book on cassette…😉
pj:
Too much talk for me but it has great highlights. Nice effort.
weasel:
Not really my cup of tea… But nevertheless it surely was a lot of work here! Therefore it's at least a yellow with me…
pie vs pie:
A quite nice tribute to the game lots of work gone int it
exocytosis:
A fairly enjoyable medley-like tune (although I've never heard about the C64-game it's based on) - parts of it reminds me of the Tron: Legacy-soundtrack, which is good all by itself.
Zilog:
So it seems I'm the only one with bleeding ears from the Governator style voice/accent, so be it 😊
