STIL commentCovers arcade version. "The most difficult adaption of a piece of music from a game was the Rastan Saga music, that took a while to get all fitted into three channels." "[...] it was really hard to fit all that stuff on the C64, particularly since the dynamic range of arcade game music was starting to rise at last, something which the C64 doesn't have much of. (I always had that problem with movie conversions of course.)"(MG)

OVERALL REMIX64 VOTE:

_steve_:
How to take one of your best known remixes, and remake it so that both are equally outstanding in their own right and yet different to one another. Truly amazing work.
goblin:
What the hell are people thinking voting grey on this one??
Marcus:
Just another RED SMILEY!!! I also really don't understand the poor votes for this song and also for "Giana Sisters!
Tomsk:
I'm so familiar with the original Glyn version, I keep expecting it to follow the same musical structure. But what an impressive new mix this is. Fantastic use of choirs, and thrilling sounding brass. All adds up to another superb effort. Class!
MatrixRevolution:
Oh! So Pleasant!
nettuno:
Excellent use of sound fonts, good quantization.
Poke16384:
Sound fonts? More like a demonstration of exactly how a Cinematic Track is constructed and exactly how it should sound.
tim_forsyth:
Wow, simply outstanding.
bastard:
The 2004 remix was also good though
LaLa:
Professional-grade cinematic orchestral-choral excellence.
omoroca:
Professional sound, but not my cup of tea!
