Another World (End Theme Remix) - arranged by Mano

Review by neglesaks, 14/07/2018

Artistically, this must be one among the best that the Remix community has on offer. It's faithful to the original and shows a creative flair in transforming and adding to it in a way that just hits the spot. Where the original tune was relatively fast-paced, Mano pulls its tempo down significantly and in adding new instruments quite different from the game's original two, manages to produce a varied and rich remix with the insert passages going together well with the main tune with only minor spots that stand out. Well done Mano. (edit: 17/7-2018)

Rambo Loader - arranged by SHEN LON

Review by mike_c64, 13/07/2018

This track made me create an account here, so that I could comment on this one. There are good tracks and then there are really really good tracks… and then, sometimes, once every third year a track like this shows up. I can listen to this like 15-20 times in a row. It gives me that special feeling every time. Thank you Shen Lon.

Last Ninja (The Wilderness) - arranged by Cytex

Review by jemym, 13/07/2018

For Last Ninja 1, Last Ninja Wilderness in-game is the most popular, having almost as many remixes as the rest of the tunes combined. In that heavy competition, Cytex remix of Last Ninja is the most authentic while still being a darn good remix. If there was ever a remaster album of Last Ninja where only one remix per tune is picked, this is a good nominee for the 4th track, and that is a honor.

Cybernoid II - Title (Enhanced) - arranged by MusicWizard

Review by LaLa, 12/07/2018

The notes are there, the arrangement is fairly faithful to the original, but it just sounds flat and emotionless. The electric guitar and the bass are both rather unexciting, for example. Needs more variation, better mixing, more vibrato, more effects… anything to make it sound more exciting.

Same midi as the other yes, AND it was made by me by hand in 1999. Now it is all mangled up.

Last Ninja Theme (Grand Orchestra) - arranged by Seaweed

Review by xgener8or, 11/07/2018

Not pointing fingers here but I think I recognize this midi as the one I made and put out online in 1999. Could be coincidence of course, but I recognize a lot of little details that I did. A bit messy choice of sounds on this also.

Ace II - arranged by Philip Bak

Review by LaLa, 04/07/2018

I am somewhat conflicted by this remix. On one hand it has a high level of craftsmanship, showcasing many things (instrumentation, effects, breaks, etc.) modern professional productions tend to have. On the other hand, it feels to me like an ambitious project that falls short of delivering all the goods, especially when it comes to the arrangement. For example: awesome intro, it really got me going! But after the quick break at 0:35 it just continues on in the same style - I sort of expected an explosion of sound at that point. In fact, at 0:56 it adds some brass that sounds cheesy to me. But I kept waiting and hoping - until about 1:30 into the tune when I finally realized this just won't evolve any further. Which is a pity. What's there is unquestionably solid and enjoyable. Its style frequently reminds me of The Alan Parsons Project. But even after listening to it several times, in the back of my mind I just keep wondering: this could've been so much more…

IMO This is the best remix of Battle Squadron. Like the best remixes it keeps the timing and spirit of the original samples and beat.

An energetic, heavy Remix that leaves me wanting more! Dusty shows remarkable technical skills (1:04 or 3:38 are insanely good!) Awesome guitar tone, amazing bass, great drums, and badass solos! Enough said!

Plastic Pop (I Miss You mix) - arranged by Mordi

Review by Ice00, 30/04/2018

Plastic Pop is one of Danko best melody realized onto SID and Mordi had extended it into a song that fit 100% with the original work. I really love the voice applied over the instrumental version. I use this song for phone ring-tone and usually I let it play a lot before answer to the call…

Phantoms Of The Asteroid (No Bass In Space) - arranged by Wobbler

Review by LaLa, 21/04/2018

Lots of very nice touches here: 1) great use of the choir, 2) really like that robotic-vocoder sound effect that can be heard occasionally, 3) the variations starting at 1:44, 4) the solid rhythm and bass track throughout. Some stuff I am not fond of: 1) the thin lead from 1:19, 2) the arrangement becomes a bit repetitive as the tune progresses. Overall, it's obvious a lot of time was spent on this beauty, definitely a keeper!
