Story
Even I admit this IS showing its age now, hence the four versions of Sanxion that follow this one that (Sanxion 1999, Sanxion 2001, Sanxion Karma 64 and Sanxion ringtone) which build on this arrangement. Sanxion 2001 is the best Sanxion I ever did which follows the original structure, and is on RKO now.

I always loved this version of Sanxion but it is definately showing it's age now.
Everything on BIT 1 is showing its age. But hey, that's 1st generation remix stuff, what do you expect!!! "Outstanding" vote for lifetime achievement, Chris! :-) No, just kidding, this tune is classic and deserves the 100%.

Overall rating

Still stands up strong today - mainly because of the excellent mixing of original SID with enhancements. First C64 remix tune I ever heard, and it made me quite emotional to hear those SID sounds blended into this mix. Will always have a soft spot for the highlight of this pioneering album
