Kinda like this one - not your typical Arkanoid remix, very original. The EQ just needs tweaking (too many ooo-ya-buggah's in there)
Nice and original but it seems that at times things go out of sync
Excellent idea though the implementation isn't upto the idea of the thought. But you know this is very good and could have been so much more.
Have to give very good for inovative thinking. Production could use some more tweaking, but it still enjoy this one a lot!
Much better than his previous attempt at Arkanoid - nice attempt to go more Industrial in times, and on the whole it works, even if occasionally things get a little too crowded.
Remix indeed! The original is hard to spot. Smart, minimalistic use of the themes.
Drum patterns are excellent, as the zillion of effects used. I feel only too much reverb in some parts and some choice of sounds not the best, but I like it.
Good mixing, but too less Arkanoid for my taste. Just totally different harmonies.
Its a shame, this could have been something special, but timing issues totally ruin things.. It goes out of sync more than it should.. Such a great idea wasted on poor production and the mastering is worse than something I could have done lol..
Well.. Don't know what to think about this one. It's got good and bad elements.. I really don't like that whinning lead.. But those drums.. Give 'em to me now..:)
Despite the very 'raw' nature of the track, it's too original not to love.
Despite some lacks... Very innovative and besides mainstream... The orange is well earned :-)
Not bad, not bad, but it doesn't really do it for me. Quite an original style, but maybe lacking in the implementation department.
Groan... I hate arkanoid, please try with another one ;-)
If a real Arkanoid sequel was made in 2005, this would be the title-tune.
Great version! I love Arkanoid remixes, and this one is definitely one of the greatest and most innovative. I like the way it's exaggeratedly electronic. Great work! Added to my collection.
Not impressive, really. Deviates too much from the original.
