Nice beat.
LaLa shouts:
Problem is, Lighforce remixes are a dime a dozen, so it's hard to stand out. I really like the beat in this one, but in general, I wasn't blown away by the arrangement.
mfe shouts:
Muddy mixing of a limited selection of weak instruments in the first half lets down what would otherwise be a unique take on an old classic.
Empee shouts:
LF is obviously a great remix material. Therefore there are so many LF remixes. This one was one of the weaker. Too much pop-like.

One of my favourites. It builds up a bit slow and the end part seems a little bit dull, but that's only because the middle part is so powerful. Once it kicks off, it flies sky high. I really like the choice of instrument on the lead there, and the right amount of reverb fits it just perfectly. And the promising fanfare subtly bubbling up in the background, and the little twist at the end of the flourish. Well done. Thank you.
