Review by Enigma, 13/06/2023

You took this mod to a whole new level! Great choice of lead sounds and remaking this. It's got a litlle bit of this 80's synthpop vibe with it even! Much improvement on the original!!!

Guitar Stardust Space Debris Slinger Medley - arranged by 0Supereg0

Review by Poke16384, 06/05/2023

My 1st listen to this remix left me scratching my head a little. So, I gave it 2 more listens… It certainly wanders off the beaten path but that isn't necessarily a negative in itself. The overall soundscape is pleasing & warm and definitely suits 'Guitar Slinger'. Where I have issue is in the arrangement & execution. There are 'bum' notes in a couple of the guitar runs, early on and; guessing that some or all of this was actually played, I can understand why you have simplified a lot of the faster flourishes & riffs from Jogeir's original. A lot of the middle section has a different chord structure also with minor chords appearing, (again, no bad thing in itself) but it becomes unrecognisable as Guitar Slinger… I honestly admire & applaud remixes that take original MODs to a new place, (you'll notice I've scored it 'red' for Artistic Skill to reflect just this) but overall it is only a 'good' for me. Some of the ideas in this remix are very good, only let down a bit by the execution.

Superfrog - Ancient level (Ode to Hathor remix) - arranged by Soundspawner

Review by fluke73, 05/05/2023

This is a really fresh remix! Wonderfull atmosphere in the begining. Love the great stereo separation. Over all it's a really fresh take on this song. The only let down was the ending that was a bit too abrubt.

Review by RomanoImigranto, 03/04/2023

Good job!! Choice of sounds gets you on unexpected time travel. I like the chords and lead sounds. The original sound of car engine its great at the beginning. As for me some drum parts could have been a little bit more varied. But overall very good aragment.

I am a fan of Maf's music. Since many years he disappeared (maf464) from Youtube. I started with his first Mafland song due to a mobile game called Fastball 2.

I am not familiar with this tune, but I like those lounge sounds, especially the electric piano and the organs. It's all well mixed and every instrument is in the right place. Great mood 😊

Lizardking's Theme (Paid In Full) - arranged by Dr Future

Review by WizardOz, 05/03/2023

A faithfully remake of one of the best scene-melodies from the Amiga. Bringing it into the future with a great guitar-lead while having its roots from the 80's and 90's remain with crisp, clear synth-backing. A delight for the ears!

Ivan 'Ironman' Stewart's Super Off Road Medley - arranged by Luke McCrea

Review by Soundspawner, 13/02/2023

Since you are a newcomer (me too by the way😉) It would be nice to give you a more in depth review.

For a first remix this is quite good 😊 I really like the bass guitar. The mix is alright.
It's very close to the original which is both good and not so good (nostalgia factor is high though)

Some constructive criticism:

- It's a bit bleak not so much happening.
- Also a bit repetitive but I know the original is quite repetitive as well.
- mixing is OK but it could be opened up a bit, i.e. more panning would be nice, also a bit of EQ'ing (particularly the low and high end)
- Good mastering will make it sound better as well
- Instrument choice is a bit meh IMO too close to the original, the synths could use some layering. Same with the drums.
- It could use some extra instruments (i.e. pads/strings, special fx) to make it sound bigger and more interesting.

But again: this is quite a solid remix and I'm looking forward to more remixes 😊

Fat yellow smiley, close to orange. Keep it up!

Stardust Memories - arranged by Makke

Review by Armandox, 20/01/2023

I never heard the original, but this has been very well produced and mixed. Everything finds it's place in this remix and it's also exceptionally well mastered. I like the late 80's synthwave and eurodance vibe in this! I'm going to check out more of your remixes!

Cream Of The Earth - arranged by gibs

Review by C64_Gamer, 17/09/2022

The original of this mod had Jan Hammer's fingerprints all over it. You can spot elements of both Miami Vice and Beverley Hills Cop in the sounds used and the rhythm. So, although this remix keeps much of that rhythm, the sound and atmosphere of the original have vanished. I'm not looking for a 1:1 copy but I feel that this remix misses many of the subtle musical references that are in the original which immediately transport us to the early 90s. My only other gripe with it, is that the arrangement doesn't take the tune to anywhere new or fresh. I know i'm criticising somebody with an enormous reputation as a remixer but I feel this is a good remix and nothing more.

Red Sector Theme (Spacemix) - arranged by Spiral

Review by fluke73, 30/05/2022

I really love this one but at the 2 mark the song jumps. Is this on purpose? I triet to play along with the song and i noticed the bump. I really like how you end it with a major chord instead of a minor. But what i see as an error at the 2 minute mark (and 3:12) makes it hard to enjoy the song.
