Story

Finally I did my tribute to this Rob Hubbard classic. I decided to break it down into 2 parts and released them as single remixes. Another attempt with real guitars and so on…

Acidgecko shouts:
Fantastic variation of a superb tune! Nice one!!

Sweet!
Jojje70 shouts:
Excellent guitars and nice idea with the samples, I really like the laid back feeling although the actual tune has not much variety in itself. Very good work nonetheless!
LaLa shouts:
This is really great work! If I want to nitpick, I would point to the bass line (I prefer the original SID's less syncopated version), but other than that, schweet!

Fantastic work

Easy-going! Good flow!
Windshield_CB shouts:
Kinda reminds me of the songs I'd skip over on my hair metal albums as an 80s kid. It's competently executed though the drums kinda have trouble coming through in the mix and sound a bit metallic.

Overall rating

Can't understand, why nobody reviewed this yet?! Well, let's go: Dr Future did a very fine job here. In my opinion the sounds are great, the guitars are played with emotions and the whole thing seems to say: I love(ed) this song, Rob 😊 The song starts with decent guitar play and grows on and on, so listener shouldn't miss the very cool Solopart beginning at 4:30m. Simply great. And I know what I'm speaking of ^^. The drums are used well and the hihat is what I like most, cause it grooves the tune. And finally, I love the game samples, which were placed at the right points creating a smile on my face while listening. Thank you, Dr Future!
