STIL comment"Human Race was a very interesting project. The tunes tried to capture some of the feel of the game, evolution etc... One of the tunes was also used for an ST game (GoldRunner I think). I only used 2 SID voices for all these tunes because I used the other for SFX...... Most of the tunes were sketched out on a small keyboard and manuscript paper. I used paper to keep track of the basic ideas and arrangement, and I still have all the original manuscripts. A lot of the manuscripts are not readable because I used to work very fast and never updated many of the changes I made. I used to use a machine code monitor to edit music data and sound patch data on the file while the tune was playing. This allowed me to really fine tune the SID parameters for the music." (RH)

OVERALL REMIX64 VOTE:

mfe:
There are brief moments of niceness in it, but it is overwhelmed by heavy, clunky, aimless mixing.
LaLa:
Rather mish-mashy, not a very coherent composition. I like the instruments and the mixing, but emotionally it leaves me cold.
Jojje70:
Some sounds are good, but the whole composition has no real structure and the beginning of the tune is really poor.
gary:
The intro is awful. Listen to the original SID to at least get the notes right. The rest of the remix is OK.
