STIL comment	The driver has a parameter to adjust the filter, but the game does not use it. "I remember I squeezed the code & data for 25 sound-effects into 923 bytes - not bad, eh?" (MG)

Comment:	"The most complex original tune I did was the 'Times Of Lore' title tune, it took 20 days just to do the guitar solos! It has a random number generator which selects different guitar solos, but I didn't realise that people wouldn't leave it looping for its 11-minute duration so the work all got sort of wasted." (MG)

OVERALL REMIX64 VOTE:

deleyt:
I love it. It has that mysterious feeling like the original. Nice job!
NecroPolo:
Interesting take. Strange, so I like it. At first it didn't show itself, because I concentrated too much on the main theme - and the real things happen in the bakcground. Great work!
Melaure:
:D
omoroca:
Very nice!
LaLa:
Great atmosphere, but after the first 10-20 seconds I was expecting this tune to build up further, instead it remained where it started. So, by the end of it the repetition becomes a bit annoying.
nicodaemus:
I think this might just be the first ambient-like remix I've heard on RKO. Very brave thing to do. The guitar could've been a bit less loud and the bass a bit more. Other than that it's quite hard to rate tunes like these, so I'll go for orange.
Mayhem:
A strange remix indeed, but relaxing and calm.
condor:
I love background sounds!
LMan:
Very nice soundscape. The guitar sound is unnerving after a while, though.
