| STIL comment | Very interesting story here. Katakis was released in September 1988 by Rainbow Arts, however it never got a release in the UK as Activision had it cancelled because of similarities to R-Type, to which Activision had bought the conversion rights. Activision were getting nowhere with their conversion of R-Type and they liked what they saw of Katakis, so they hired the same programming team (Manfred Trenz and others) to do the C64 conversion. They only got 6 weeks to write the conversion, and sadly, it shows. Katakis was eventually altered and released as Denaris in 1989. Tunes #2 to #14 all cover of the arcade game. |

Instant Remedy at his best - true to the original yet still with a unique style and taking the spirit of the song to a very modern piece of music
kjetiln:
Love it! Could easily be played at clubs! Nice touches to the lead sound. The baseline is a little boring, but that's my only complain! Will definitely add to playlist!😊
bastard:
I LOVE bouncing!
jokesoldier:
Cheers for the Grench!
Zilog:
Aucun d'entre eux n'est jamais retourné… Definitely 21st Century Google translation☹️… Double grammatical error… Beaucoup d'entre eux ne sont jamais revenus… Who cares? Who speaks French anyway eh? After Engrish, we have Grench.
DHS:
Pumping fits the genre (a crossover between generic edm and melbourne bounce), so it's not a minus for me. Doesn't get full red only because the limiter is really too heavy even for the type of track. Overall great work!
omoroca:
You are right, not everyone's cup of tea. Great effort anyway!
AmiStyler79:
Bit too bouncy for my taste, but well arranged!
ChrisBond:
Solid!
NecroPolo:
Dancefloor filler, I think the additional parts / extensions add greatly to the overall picture, great work. My only gripe is that I got seasick by the overdosed sidechain pumping effect 😊
LaLa:
I like everything about this remix - except for the extreme pumping effect, which I find downright annoying.
Waz:
High energy to say the least. Bouncy, and in your face, although some could argue a little too bouncy!
vincenzo:
Sorry, to me this melody doesn't fit this genre somehow… I might be too old but I also don't like the (over)pumped mixing. Still, it's a great remix, yellow face overall.
