A curious tune that spells disaster right from the ofset. A strangely mellow backing to a fast paced lead (barely audiable) which isn't such a bad thing as it sounds terrible. The background and the lead sounds very much seperate which doesn't help matters. i can only guess that he's simply pasted on the lead over a simple backing as they don't come together at all. Also another downside is a lack of variation (especially concerning the backing, it's just the same old loop being replayed over and over again).

nono, it's droll!

We always welcome new arrangers to RKO and I prefer to write a nice, heart-warming review. I'm sorry, there is no reason to do so. This tune is really boring with serious lacks of inspiration. The rhythm of the bass/drum-line does not match with the lead… very curious and I guess not a stilistic purpose. This song ends very abrupt, when you have set your player on loop, it sounds really awful. And besides that: MP3-Tags should contain more useful information.

Not a typical arrangement, but new things are welcome. Maybe a bit too much reverb and echo. Some instruments sound too far away. It reminds me of the music I did 10 years ago…

Sounds a bit odd at the end, like it's too abrupt. Maybe the upload broke? Anyway, keep up the good work.

A soft electronic piece with relaxational overtones. Not what you'd expect from a Target Renegade cover, but somehow it works. It's moody and groovy with just the right ingredients and a proper mix. Unfortunately, it appears to be a partial upload as it cuts off abruptly in the middle of the tune.

I think the music has a dark park-feeling. I can't remember if this game had any walk in the park level, but I'm sure I've played such a level somewhere. The reverb-filled spooky soundwaves and the mental images of a lone renegade smashing the badguy's face under a parklight beside a bench and a garbagecan. It's something sad, haunting, terrorizing and frightening about that… in a way… sort of… Dreams! This is what the sid-tunes do to your head. This tune gives that recall! Great!

Overall, it is a nice effort. But there is such a thing as too much reverb, and this piece is a poster-boy for that term…
