Gordian Tomb (Extended PowerPunch Edit) - arranged by Zee EnergizerReview by LaLa, 20/08/2019 I find it impossible not to move my feet when listening to this great collaboration! Technically perfect, I really enjoy it! |

For Joanne (Experim. Aural Maneuvers) [Vinyl Mix] - arranged by LaLaReview by Poke16384, 19/08/2019 A little Jean-Michel-Jarre / Vangelis influence here methinks. Overall, a nice feel to this track with a good faithfulness to the chord-structure of the original. Towards the end, (around 3:50-4:05), the timing gets a touch loose between the choir-voices and the arpeg-bells. For me, the drums could have been a little more up-front to peg the timing down against the choir-voices which are strong in the mix. It's a pleasant listen overall - Nice One LaLa! |

Paperboy Hi-Score (Angelized) - arranged by LaLaReview by Poke16384, 19/08/2019 Wow! The master of reviews does a remix.. The concept is original, (sheep & campfire) and suits the acoustic guitar which is well executed and sets the mood. How fortunate you are, Imre, to have a choir on hand by your campfire, ha ha! Putting vocals in, makes this an unusual remix for this website but fair-play to you, for doing it. The remixes & covers that we upload here should push the boundaries. The melody and chord-structure of the original are kept faithfully with a couple of nice, tasty guitar variations. I almost believed you had a perfectly pitched singing voice, (just a couple of glitches in the pitch correction). My only crit - The lead-vocal is slightly ahead of the rest towards the end… Do you know what? Overall, this is different and out of the ordinary… and I think it deserves a decent score, just for that! (have you been listening to my remixes with lots of sounds behind the music? LOL). |

Crying in the Delta Wind - arranged by Mutherpluckin' BReview by Flidd, 13/08/2019 Awesome cover. Raw with a live feeling to it. Little mistakes here and there but it doesn't matter. |
|
Dragons Lair 2 - The Romantic River Epic - arranged by MaindrianReview by Flidd, 13/08/2019 Pleasant enough, but has some minor tuning and timing issues. And the overdriven guitar was unnecessary. |

Cybernoid 2 (reggae mix) - arranged by Johan AnderssonReview by hobs0n, 13/08/2019 I'm in heaven. I love reggae and I love chip (especially Sid) tunes and to hear this tune just makes me cry in happiness! |

2rrican (The Turrican2 Medley) - arranged by Graphite 3.6+Review by FunkyM, 07/08/2019 Having tried to create an Homage to Mr Siebold's SID Score to this Sensational sequel, I can appreciate this Metal-ised Medley all the more, for featuring the Bulk of the Tunes, up to and including the Title Screen, and Level 3-1. But yeah, Turrican- ah, excuse me, 2rrican ROCKS! |
|
Thanatos (The Piano Dragon) - arranged by Dr FutureReview by aGGreSSor, 29/07/2019 It's sound great. The composer hasn't lost a single note from the original melody. Lowest bows. |
|
Monty On The Run (I've Heard This Song Before) - arranged by druuReview by JonSolo42, 27/07/2019 Agreed, it's a great arrangement, and I don't even love DubSt. But as my son says,the old west pianosections are amazing and really make this one stand out. Love those transitions. |
|
Druid 2 - arranged by Instant RemedyReview by V1nkly, 24/07/2019 This remix is good it has some kind of nostalgia. make more of this type music please. Its good |
|
End of All People (2nd) - arranged by Into DecayReview by LaLa, 23/07/2019 Honestly, I was not familiar with this JB tune before. This is not bad for thrash metal. I'm also curious what's Mordi's involvement in this track. I am guessing he is the lead singer? … 😉 |
|
Auf Wiedersehen Monty & Commando - arranged by Jeroen TelReview by omoroca, 22/07/2019 I know, you're supposed to be objective in a review. But as a fan of Hubbard *and* Tel, I can't help but to get goosebumps all over and listen to this cool stuff over and over and over all day long |

JT In Space (Man On The Moon ReDub) - arranged by DMCReview by LaLa, 05/07/2019 Most excellent!!!First of all, what great timing on this release: on the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 Moon landing! Second, this is one really cool retro space disco infused, yet very modern sounding production! The sound bites, the vocoded vocal, the over-the-top drums, the arrangement, the mixing - everything is just top-notch all around. I really, really enjoy it! Thanks for sharing it with us! |
|
The Last Ninja - The Wilderness - arranged by MOSchopsReview by LaLa, 02/07/2019 An objectively authentic idea: performing this classic Last Ninja tune on nothing but traditional Japanese instruments! I'm shocked nobody thought of this before…Although I highly suspect this is all sequenced stuff with plugins (vs. an actual live ensemble), the arrangement and the instrumentation is still very convincing. Really nicely done! I'm looking forward to more performances in the same style! |
|
Artillery (shape demo mix) - arranged by Gerd BahlReview by LaLa, 15/06/2019 Very well produced, I especially like all the subtleties of the lead (including that quick trill that was present in the original, too - nice touch). I think the lead sound is a bit overfiltered at times (just let it rip!), and overall the arrangement is lacking some sort of extra energy that I find hard to describe. But it's quite an enjoyable remix as is. |
|
The Human Race (Goldrunner) Piano Live - arranged by LightSideReview by LaLa, 15/06/2019 I said it before and I'll say it again: I'm a sucker for piano covers, so any piano piece will automatically get upvoted by me. 😊 But I think this piece could've used more variation in dynamics, it's sort of flat throughout. Especially if this is a live recording, not a sequenced piece. |

Yie Ar Kung Fu 2 - arranged by Dr FutureReview by LaLa, 15/06/2019 There are many things I like about this remix. Its graceful intro (With a cowbell! You can't go wrong with a cowbell! 😉 ), the oriental sounding instruments, the wonderful arrangement, the balanced mix, etc. But here's why I'm a bit harsh with my vote: the melody line is rather flat. The lead instrument is very, very nice, but I miss all the slides and trills that make the melody line more interesting, more emotional. Reyn captured (and enhanced) that beautifully in his remix onGalway Remixed, and since then I can't even hear the original SID without those in my head. Compared to that, the melody line here sounds flat and a bit lifeless. But other than that, this is an outstanding production, showing great craftsmanship. |

The Human Race (Goldrunner) Piano Live - arranged by LightSideReview by Markus Gecko, 12/06/2019 Simple and effective. Good mastering too, I enjoyed the panning and separation. SID piano cover can be a bit of a cliché, but this impressed. |
|
Yie Ar Kung Fu 2 - arranged by Dr FutureReview by Chilli-Uk1969, 12/06/2019 Stunning in So many ways lots of little tricks and a very very good interpretation. |
|
Vendetta - arranged by ColmarrReview by krommenaas, 06/06/2019 Great choice of instruments as always. The wobbly theme that is the climax of the original starts before the halfway point here, then this version works towards an ever more frantic and noisy rendition of the brooding main theme, a bit Front 242-esque, followed by a pensive coda. Love it! |
|
Gyroscope - Halloween Theme - arranged by Peter GantarReview by LaLa, 29/05/2019 The core theme is somewhat lifeless and repetitive. And it doesn't really scare me, sorry. Despite all the added sound FX. |
|
Bionic Commando Tune 6 - arranged by Allister BrimbleReview by stechmann, 15/05/2019 great version of a great tune. keep up the good work, hope to see more in the quality |
|
Asterix And The Magic Cauldron - Gaulish Village - arranged by Peter GantarReview by LaLa, 08/05/2019 A valiant attempt at an orchestral arrangement, but the instruments all sound flat and boring. There's a total lack of dynamics throughout the tune, too. Not bad for a start, but this could've benefited from more time in the oven. |
|
Microprose Soccer Theme - arranged by Greg EatonReview by LaLa, 08/05/2019 This! 😊 This is how I always should've imagined this tune: as oom-pah music! Perfect marriage of source material and remix style! But I think the piece could've used some more careful mixing: it all sounds too loud, too harsh. Probably because it has too many high frequencies in it. |
|
Zybex (Zipbacks feat. BakiTheFox Kacepru) - arranged by DJ CzyszyReview by LaLa, 08/05/2019 The purist in me is protesting:but this is not a 1:1 cover of the original!True, but it's still bloody amazing! The rock-style arrangement is spot-on, the instrumentation was obviously carefully chosen, the guitars are played craftily, and the result is a powerful piece of music that also happens to be a mind-blowing SID remix. |
|
International Karate (extended mix) - arranged by FastLoadersReview by Amon73, 01/05/2019 Uno dei migliori remix che ho ascoltato in questo periodo! Bellissimo 😊 Sono sicuro che piacerà molto a chi come me, ha vissuto quell'epoca indimenticabile! |

That's the Way it is - main (regular) - arranged by Gerd BahlReview by LaLa, 01/05/2019 First off, tons of respect for remixing the entire 7+ minute tune! The arrangement is a bit uncomplicated, but it varies enough not to become boring. It also nicely retains the atmosphere of the original material. The opening chords feel a littleofffor me (especially the last bar of the sequence), but once the drums came in, I was sold. I also like how you turned all the arpeggios into chords, kudos for that. Overall, there are lots of nice touches throughout the tune (like the whistles, or the sharp lead playing the melody line) which keep it interesting throughout. |
|
Dutch Breeze/Robocop 3 (Progressive Uplift) - arranged by LagerfeldtReview by Ryrynz, 05/04/2019 This has everything going for it. Beautiful beat, beautiful synth, effects fit in perfectly.. One of my all time favourites. No Emotion or energy? It's infectious! How can you not want to get your groove on listening to this? |
|
The Antics (ambient mix) - arranged by ColmarrReview by Ryrynz, 03/04/2019 Taking inspiration from the second quarter segment of the original SID and building up it, it crafts a powerful remix that which doesn't encompass all the original tune has to offer does a remarkable job with what it has. The most memorable part of the SID was taken, wonderfully re-created and given a nice long dark synth build up. Well done. I feel that if the lead up was shorter people would've rated this higher, but I love it. You should do a slight variation of it that includes the other parts of the tune. |
|
Lightforce - arranged by The St. Albans Rob Hubbard Fan ClubReview by LaLa, 02/04/2019 A powerful version, full of energy. In the first couple of minutes I find the brass sections a bit lacking in oomph, but then they make up for it later. The drums and the drones are especially well crafted. |
