STIL comment	"I got the one of the highest ratings I've ever got for this.. Zzap 64 gave me 96% for it.. one of the others was Impossamole on the NEC. I have a copy of that somewhere but havent had the chance to try out the emulator." (BL)

Comment:	The digitized voice is actually Barry Leitch himself. The original Xenophobe theme, was written and 4 Amiga networked using 16 channels and was originally included as a tape in the package of the game. The original music features the speech of Neil Young, who is now the head of Origin, which could not be used in the C64 version of the game for legal reasons.

vhold:
It's stood the test of time. When I'm on shuffle and this comes up I'm happy.
Hex Madroom:
Kick-ass tune! Well done!
jtgibson:
I listen to this song pretty regularly. When it breaks into the heavy saw-wave bass at about 40 seconds in, I was hooked.
hazel:
Great stuff here… I really like your style…
dimmignatt:
To much drums and bass sound can't hear much of the other things so this doesn't really work for me… But good effort on the remix 😃
dafunk:
Love those pulsating bassline soundz, but the lead snd somehow doesn't work 4 me… But great BB overall!
ifadeo:
Great Remix!!! I love it! Keep'em coming, infy…
kwed:
If Infamous and Hazel ever do a coop mix I'll need a change of underwear.
Makke:
I so dig this! Good one, Infy!
Dan:
Agreed it could do with a little bit more of a smack but im loving this, it sounds like something David Arnold would write 😊
LMan:
Great punch. A little muddy on the instrument part though.
omoroca:
Technically well done, but not my cup of fika!
Tas:
Lacks punch of the original, a little too laid back on the main melodies. A good try, but it feels like it doesn't just have the crack which it should. Not aggressive enough on the leads
c64glen:
Yes, this will do
westerling:
Good sound!!! I think the melody is too low in the mix.
anaconda:
Ok tune. But nothing new unfortunately.
eliot:
As his nick predicts… But this time, nicely done.
Waz:
Needs a fair bit more aggression, seems lightweight and Eurotrance-ish in parts. It's got the flow and feel though, and with tweaking would be even better.
