Story
I liked the little melodie so much, so i used a nice short synthsound with big delay on it. Some smooth stringlike sound to make a nice atmosphere and not to disturbing drums to make all fit nicely together.

Hope you like it

The epicness this remix achieves in only 3:34 is awesome. A worthy remix of an outstanding original SID tune! Added to my collection.
NecroPolo shouts:
It was one of my fav SIDs. This remix is okay but it's the opposite of what my ears want to hear and my brain tries to compensate while listening to this version. It's a very unpleasant feeling somehow.

Aye, this one is good, if a little odd. When I think of the TOL theme, I usually associate it with that wonderful arpegio, and its here, but its strange hearing it done so electronically. Not that electronic is bad, far from it. This is still a good remix and I think its a sound I would like to hear more of. Akin to Harry Gregson Williams or Trevor Rabin, a mix of orchestral and electronic sounds that gels really well.

I think it loses a few points for nostalgia, but only because its so jarring to hear TOL in this context. Its quite polished and very listenable. So listen to it… Or something. Uh, yeah.

Chak's first attempt doing a c64 remix and his remix is really felicitous…
he catch the spirit of the orginal, with a good selection of sounds…
the only weak point, this remix is to short… 😉


keep'em coming, chris!!!
