Well, this is my all time favorite remix, regardless of platform. It's been at parties, in my car, during work and at home. Even my girlfriend had to fight her hate against my addiction to SID and its remixes, and admit it was a catchy little tune. To me, it never gets old.

I like the arrangement and the drive it has. The persistent kick/bass-line and percussion (dam-dara-dam-da-ra) works perfectly, and its not too noisy and does not drown out the other instruments in the mix.

It might not be the most varied production ever when it comes to arrangement and originality, and could easily become a little repetive. But it dont. It does something new whenever its close to getting old, and the interlude makes sure it survives another go at the lead.

The low-to-high sliding at the end, before it all fades out, ends it perfectly. I dont think I have anything negative to say about this piece. The nostalgic factor on this one is… well… too huge. Good work, you need to whip up more like this.

2000 really was your year wasn't it? Would be really cool to hear you make these again now. Very enjoyable to listen to and of course super nostalgic…
