OVERALL REMIX64 VOTE:

Simon PC Frost:
Yes it was me. I did it. Working with Tigress in '85/'86 pushing games to EA and Ariola. I am absolutely thrilled with the work that GioVeR did with this nasty little tune. This was actually the first piece I put together for the C-64.
karter:
I relly like this one as I liked the original. But I am really not sure if the original composer is Simon PC Frost… As HVSC can not state the name of the composer. Anyway, one of my favourites which I used to whistle all day long (and I still do)
Quarex:
I generally find myself rating more on personal feeling than on any sort of truly qualifiable standards. This song just makes me happy, and is one of the only songs so far this year that I find myself listening to several times in a row before moving on.
LaLa:
This tune has that Italian happy-go-lucky feeling to it that makes me feel upbeat whenever I listen to it. Two thumbs up for emotional content, even though it's lacking on production quality.
kai:
Agree - addictive despite simplicity and lovely - I wonder if the instruments are a bit grindy on purpose to give the tune a retro feeling
infamous:
Ok so ive put a yellow face and written this twice now… Strangely infectious tune that im going to give a orange to (eventually) for simply confusing the crap out of my ears and making me happy ^^
eliot:
Really hard to vote between good and very good… But it makes me smile… So it goes orange 😉
Waz:
Might sound a bit simplistic this, but there's plenty of emotion and feel in here that shines through. Really nice when the main lead kicks in loud at around the 1:35 mark too.
Dan:
I really liked this, cant place my finger on what it is but its damn nice
moog:
I think, that accompaniament and synth solos are too little expressive. They are too artificial --- total quantization isn't the right way. Idea is good.
weasel:
Hmm… Weird! It's surely not bad… But also leaves something open when listening to it! Dunno what it is! On one hand I would like to give it just an 'average' and then it's ok for 'good' again! Really weird one!! Really…
solsol:
Somehow addictive tune, but repeats itself.
ifadeo:
Nice one…
Chris Abbott:
A bit harsh for my ears, but has its own brand of brash charm
Ziphoid:
Gooder, could that be a new voting option? It's better than good, but not really very good… *hmmm* Well, I quite like it and it has some nice parts.
LMan:
Did listen to it several times and can't really decide on how to rate it. On the one hand it's pretty flat and simple, but on the other hand it has its moments.
omoroca:
Could've been nice, but I don't think the chords sound like they were intended to sound. I don't have a good feeling about it.
