Good remix but I think your talent is wasted on remixing this tune.

BlackRose shouts:
Woah!!! I think I'm gonna just quote cybfree ;) And yeah, more, more remixes!!!
Satanarchist shouts:
Excellent guitar work and a great remix, but its too quiet, has no bass and is lacking in the production area - it needs more OOMPH!
koroner shouts:
I dont like the tune, but love remix by Gibs, superb!
Viceman shouts:
Not my style.
Apache shouts:
WWoooa.. LEGENDARY!!!!!!! ... I love it..... I remembered it right away. 10 points and stick of exellence.....!!!

It could use a somewhat "heavier" bassline. It's a bit too "squeaky" for me at the moment.
Nebdar shouts:

Excellent production here. Sounds nice and has a few creative ideas here and there. Nothing to complain about, really.

This is a problematic tune to remix, however, because the original is very short and has little substance in it. Either the remix remains equally short, keeps repeating the same notes too long, or, as in this case, the remixer composes some of his own stuff on it. It is a pleasure to listen to, but in my mind doesn't fully connect to the original track. I'm going to have to subtract one grade for that reason, but this is probably as good as a TD2 remix is going to get.

Definitely, the best version of this theme I have never heard. It is better than last Kris version, and, of course, all those tens of good-intentioned versions.

The feelings of putting this music on my car, remembered me those old times of playing this game. I love cars, and if there is a music I can identify with the pleasure of driving, is precisely this one.

Thanks Gibs, you got it, and I got it. Don't forget Target renegade.

J'adorais l'original. Ce remix est vraiment sympa, la guitare sonne un peu agressive mais les sirènes, les crissements de pneu, le solo participent à créer une ambiance vraiment sympa.
