Story

I've been listening so much to Tim's fabulous rendition that I couldn't get it out of my head and eventually had to do a take of my own 😊

Great remix, Eivind :)
Probably the best take I've ever heard on Yie Ar Kung Fu II!
This is wonderful. It highlights Martin's beautiful melody perfectly. Love the reimagining of the chaotic end to the original. This is a real treat for the ears.
Another outstanding remix of YAKF2. Great stuff Eivend.
Wonderful remix. The eptiomy of original interpretation and respect for the source.

This is sooo nice, Eivind! The soft intro with the piano and the strings, then the cello - just wonderful to listen to. And when the choir comes in at the ~2 minute mark with the lead singer - wow, just lovely.I think the string legatos could be better, at times they are almost non-existent, making the strings sound a bit robotic, but that is such a minor technical gripe. What's important here is that this tune is full of emotions - I was actually sad and surprised that it ended so early, somewhat abruptly. Maybe could've used a nice decrescendo outro…Well done, I quite enjoyed this, thanks for sharing it with us!
