STIL comment	"I tried to create this feeling of a massive behemoth robot monster on its way to destroy you. Thus the marching beat and the minor chords and stark tones. I had to stick in the inevitable jamming solo towards the end of course. I was starting to face the glass ceiling imposed by the filter on the C64. While my particular SID sounded great, others were not like it at all and the solos were almost inaudible! At the other extreme the new C64C's were coming out and this filter unreliability had been fixed as part of a silicon revision. BUT the filters were way too open all the time and you could hardly hear any filtering! This caused the filtered note to come out a lot louder than it should have and 'stick out' rather unattractively. So I developed a 'filter adjustment' parameter for my music program which would allow the customer to control this filter unreliability and get their particular machine to sound cool. But David Collier never put it in the options screen. (DOH!) There's always something wrong, eh?" (MG)

OVERALL REMIX64 VOTE:

CJ Warlock:
I love it. Jarre-like parts, harmonies, synth sounds - all good in one place. And it's still a C64 tune at the core of it. Nicely done.
vurtx:
Nicely weird with a 1950s sci-fi vibe to it.
Mordi:
I like this. It's a bit ambient and has a certain atmosphere to it. It's alright!
LaLa:
A minimalistic remix - maybe too minimalistic. Sounds like a synth jam session from the late 1970s… I find the lead suddenly blasting in at 1:57 especially jarring.
