'You have offended my family… '. True! Hey, he's got a drum machine and a synth! And they can be linked up!!! Wow!!! OK, sarcasm alert. It's SID and drums time. It's hard, it's nasty, my bum remains unmoved. Bruce Lee just isn't the tune to do this to with any effect. At 1 minute the tune stops being horrible and starts being detuned and horrible. Then it returns to abysmal. Not my cup of tea at all, though some of the later basslines and breaks show some rhythmic skill. It's still vomit-inducing though. Almost redeemed by the clever use of Bruce Lee samples in the middle, it could have worked if it wasn't so damned harsh! Urgh. Chris hell.

I am not offended by the lack of technical or artistic creativity, as I agree on the drums emphasizing the strength of the original sidtune and the original Bruce Lee (the Dude!) samples to state the nostalgia of this entirety. Overall this mix pleases me, really! yet as an artist I must say more could have been done with extra synths and better, more dynamic and/or more persuasive drum sounds.

This is a really nice remix with a lot of dynamic energy hat fits the hero of the title: Bruce Lee! Nice drum'n'bass feel but with good melody and bass and a clever rhythm use of in game sounds from the C64 classic. Well done.
