YogibearRenoise shouts:
Sounds good! This is my 3rd sid that is remixed! Anyone fancies a 4th? How about Parasol Stars?!
LaLa shouts:
Take the aspirations of Reyn's ''Asian Legends'' and use a somewhat different mix of tunes based on a SID mix - you get the idea! Nicely done, but more refinement of the sonic soundscape would've elevated it further.
SarahKreuz shouts:

Nice dream, stimulating good nostalgic nerve centres. Maybe, subtunes could be glued slightly better together in places.

A lot of effort has gone into this and great to see CZ finally get an Outstanding rating! Love the track, though was a little disappointed with some of the transitions and instrumentation. Asian Legends still rules!

Take the aspirations of Reyn's ''Asian Legends'' and use a somewhat different mix of tunes based on a SID mix - you get the idea!

Nicely done, but more refinement of the sonic soundscape would've elevated it further. For example, choose one: Koto's italo disco or traditional Asian instruments. The two somehow don't mix. Also, the transitions between some of the tunes are too abrupt (contrast with the smooth-flowing Reyn classic).

But you know what, yes, it has its shortcomings, but the more I listen to it, the more I like it!
