Mordi shouts:
Excellent. Thought it would be a crappy MIDI-version the first 20 seconds, but then it turns into a solid rock/metal cover.

Shark shouts:
Great stuff!:)
NecroPolo shouts:
For some reason it reminds me of my kiddyhood when I ate the plastic wrapping altogether with my favourite cake. Melodically / arrangement wise it is perfect. The feel is missing a little for me. Great job, anyway.
omoroca shouts:
Not bad, but too noisy guitars for my taste! There are better remixes of this awesome SID, e. G. By moog.
Melaure shouts:
Too saturated guitars, but the anything else is excellent.
MORBID shouts:
Outstanding!
bitninja shouts:
One of my fav alibi's! Great job on making the guitars *not* sound out of place. And you nailed the groove :D

After having listened to this tune, uh, about a million times the past few days, I came to appreciate it even more. It gets every nuance right: the key changes, the minor blends, the quick trills, you name it. Every single instrument and every single note is absolutely essential in this remix to make this piece work as well as it does. Absolutely masterfully arranged and mixed, I'm still in awe!

Masterful how apt that word is to this arrangement. My brother does guitar recordings and from the other room he said how good the guitar work was. It's engaging, it's clear and crisp and wonderfully arranged.

You can tell love has been put into this track.

This is as good as they get. Amazing.
