JT In Space (Twolegs Remix) - arranged by MetalReview by balloonhead, 10/12/2013 I listened to this song about 100 Times or even more. Running through my daily playlists every time JT in Space comes up my face takes a smiling position. This track has all that is needed to make a listener happy. Sounds with a nostalgic flare and a modern rhythm with a bodytouching beat. I think you cannot listen to often to this track. |

Great Giana Sisters - arranged by machinae supremacyReview by Ryrynz, 03/11/2013 Obviously one of the best remixes of this tune ever. No wonder it was used in the Giana Sisters:Twisted Dreams game. |

Krakout - arranged by SIDrip AllianceReview by BenDaglish, 29/09/2013 Actually - mytechnicalreview is pretty much the same as LaLa's - the actual recorded sound itself could be better, and I'd like to hear more bass maybe, but the arrangement, and playing itself is marvellous. What's nice is that you can tell it's a *live* piece - personally, I'd love to see that performed. In fact, if you chaps ever fancied getting together for a gig… |

Wizardry (Are you ready) - arranged by druuReview by Alcoholocauster, 20/09/2013 Werke der Opernliteratur offenbaren das Innerste ihres Charakters am besten dann, wenn man sie des Mantels repräsentativer Hochkultur völlig entkleidet, wenn man den ganzen angeblich nötigen Apparat zu ihrer Aufführung samt symphonisch besetztem Orchester, schwerem Samtvorhang, Pausensekt und Programmheft weglässt. |

International Karate - arranged by Rune-Bertil'sReview by LaLa, 17/08/2013 Well, first of all, I really admire that you've tackled the entire IK tune, not just a part of it. I also really admire the unbelievable effort that must've been put into this remix, it's obviously a work of love, a work of art. It's a great production with lots of wonderful details.Having said that, like others, I also think this is not a perfect marriage of source material and style. Maybe it's my existing knowledge about prior IK remixes that gets in the way here, maybe it's the perceived awkwardness of the way the melody is fit onto a swing beat - dunno, but somehow it just doesn't gel together in my brain. Does it make my legs move? Yes. Does it bring a smile on my face? Yes. Maybe I should just be content with that. |

Ghost'n Goblins (Cathedral Mix) - arranged by Isacco Garcia PeveriReview by Dethme0w, 28/07/2013 I listened to this about 4 times in a row after downloading it. Put on headphones, close your eyes, and you almost think you're in a vast, cavernous cathedral - except they're playing Ghosts & Goblins! All I can say to Isacco Garcia Peveri is: More please!Note: I have revised my Technical Meritrating down one because I am in agreement with another reviewer that proper organ music does not fade out - it either ends with an eruption of fireworks and awesomeness that leaves you breathless and mindblown (and half-deaf), or walks you and your bleeding heart down a convoluted path of melancholy that leaves you in tears on the final note, which is still as loud and clear as the first. But never fade it out like a cheap early 80's pop single. Other than that, this remix is made of awesome. More please! (Hint: Galway) |

R-Type (Doppelganger Summer Remix) - arranged by LagerfeldtReview by NecroPolo, 27/07/2013 Time is passing, nice remixes come and go but this one remained 'THE' R-Type remix to me during the years. There are many flavours around but this one still has the best vibe to me. Besides the big picture, it also does so many little things perfectly that makes this track something like a nice rich summer cocktail with an awesome, timeless aftertaste.Cheers! |

1942 (Orchestral) - arranged by Miguel F EttemaReview by Ryrynz, 19/07/2013 I think this is quite possibly the best remix ever done.Everything is pretty much perfect. Takes the original and makes is golden. I don't know how some of you guys only rate this as good for minor things, I've seen goodremixes sound nowhere near what this manages to pull off. Good for not being perfect? C'mon! |

Ghost'n Goblins (Cathedral Mix) - arranged by Isacco Garcia PeveriReview by LaLa, 04/07/2013 I'm always glad when a pipe organ remix shows up on RKO because I like organ music, which is why I am probably more picky about it. I see a few issues with this interpretation:1) It needs a more throatypipe organ sound. The one you used sounds a bit whiney. 2) The arrangement could be a bit more complex, I'd love to hear this more in the style of Bach. 3) Fadeout with a pipe organ tune? Not a good choice at all. It needs a big, window-rattling crescendo ending! |

Supremacy - arranged by druuReview by Jeroentel, 30/05/2013 This is clearly a very good remix of one of my tunes. The dubstep style is really pleasing to the ears. I only wish that all the original melody notes would have been considered. Right now it's an interpretation, but it still does a lot of justice to the original tune. Way to go druu! Keep 'm coming. |

Bros intro (M.A.C.C.) - arranged by Terminal StormReview by Jeroentel, 30/05/2013 When I started to compose Commodore 64 music I never contemplated that it would have this impact on the world. I was a kid just doing what I loved doing and played around with music on the Commodore 64 SID chip. When a remix tune like this appears I get excited and the kid in me gets goosebumps. I applaud this tune for it's remix value and danceability. Great melodies and awesome beats. Thank you TStorm for taking the time and effort! |

Tristesse - arranged by MordiReview by Alucard, 01/04/2013 This one is difficult to jugde…Technically, this is top notch. In interpretation, use of instrumentation, executing them the right way and mixing them together. Even the clear and transparent production adds up to it. Personally, for my taste it is too much stuffed with this wahwahishflanging lead synth. A little bit less of it here and there would have added greatly to the atmosphere of the song. Although the music isnt really my side of town, i admit that to judge this song fairly i have to put back my personal taste and rely on the overall outstanding technichal part instead. And for that alone, you get the top notch. I hereby confess i listened to a bunch of Mordi RMXes now and if there is a clearer contestant to ROTY i havent found him yet… 😉 |

Cooperation Demo (Peter W RMX) - arranged by Peter WReview by Alucard, 01/04/2013 This is the reason i subscribed on this site here! I am not a remixer, just a humble user listening to some great music here.The intro doesnt keep up with the part that begins after it. A little more precision in timing would have been nice. But thats criticism on a high level… comes outta my boxes juicy as hell… and the female spoken parts should have been extended in the rest of the RMX! This piece made me tap my toes in rhythm. Great work on the dominant drums, extremely spacy feeling with the synths. Two minutes into the remix the really outstanding part begins… those out of this world intergalactic synths made me feel like i am dancing between the stars… pure eargasm. I am writing as a humble listener and i enjoyed your work. Great stuff. Thumbs up! |

Training (Kicks with a punch Remix) - arranged by AcidBlockReview by LaLa, 16/03/2013 Finally, a remix of this underrated JCH tune! The kick drum has such a punch, it hurt my stomach even thru the headphones! In a good way!The raspy lead instrument is a bit off-putting. I am not a fan of the arrangement, either, maybe I need to listen to it more to appreciate it. BTW, did I mention I love the punch of its kickass kick? |

Ocean Loader 2 - arranged by MordiReview by Ryrynz, 27/02/2013 I love how this remix progresses it really brings you into the song! Totally mellow but powerful too.This does the SID proud, it's the best Ocean loader remix so far, yes you have topped Instant Remedy with this one. I love that it's over 5 minutes long too! And that progression at 3. 45,, OMG. Chick chick chick… CHICK AHHH. |

Outrun (Splash Wave daXX Remix) - arranged by daXX offlineReview by AdSalusNonAptus, 15/02/2013 This is even better than dubstep commando, brilliant sound, catchy and nice to your mind and your ears (mostly). However there is this problem again - wrong notes and modified harmonies. The latter is propably a matter of taste and its the choice of the author. A more faithful realization would do your tracks some good though. |

Green Beret (Chillout ReMix) - arranged by PowerTraceReview by LaLa, 14/02/2013 I have just rediscovered this remix (2016 Feb), and man, it totally captivates me! It's been playing on a loop inside my head for days now. The production is topnotch, and it is deeply emotional on many levels. And Zilog is right: there's something Jarre-ish about this remix: that dreamy piano is definitelyMetamorphosis. |

Outrun Europe Levels Extended Euromix - arranged by PhekkisReview by LaLa, 03/02/2013 I really dig the space disco style of this remix. This is also definitely better mixed than the 1st version you submitted to RKO.My most favorite part of this remix is 3:07-3:21 (which also gets repeated a few times later), that chord progressions is spot on. Maybe the drums could be stronger, I think the snares are especially weak. I like the arrangement overall, it doesn't get boring at all despite its length. The more I listen to this, the more I like it! |

A Trace of Space - arranged by MordiReview by drm, 01/02/2013 Why do I like this track?Well it ticks all the right boxes for me in what an electronic piece of music should sound like. First off there is the lead - it has not been programmed to sound flat and lifeless - it's got a lot of expression in there. The little frills also add character to the lead. The chords in this track are interesting too and make the hairs on the back of my neck stand up! This remix also has a nod to it's roots by having the 8 bit sounding staccato arp sound running throughout the remix and I like the way it's developed in the fade out - something most remixers would probably have overlooked by just letting it run and fade. I also think this is an outstanding track in that it manages to marry the sound of Jarre and Vangelis in just 3m:22sec. In fact when I first heard the beta release of this I thought Mordi had found an unreleased bootleg Vangelis track! Well done Mordi I hope one day I can do a remix as good as this one. This is staying on my MP3 player and best of all it was free!! |

Lightforce 2004 - arranged by Darren LambourneReview by Ryrynz, 09/01/2013 This works so well, it's an amazing tune and all the instruments work perfectly together. I wish it had a bit more clarity and a higher bitrate but I can't complain. One of my favorite remixes, totally hoping for a V2. |

Master of the Lamps (Intro) - arranged by SeaweedReview by Kyusawamura, 19/12/2012 I agree with LaLa and NecroPolo on quite a handful of notes being out of place, but as a person who appreciates contemporary music and strange harmonies, that's precisely what I find charming about this. I hope those strange notes were intentional, because they produce quite the tension, and that's something to put to good use. If they were a mistake… I have some bad news for you… |

Captured - arranged by MontyReview by WilliamZ, 03/12/2012 Long time Capture player, so I've listened a lot to this music in original form. Monty, you have taken a classic composition and made it into something really special. It has a BIG and unusual sound, keeping the original intentions by the composer. The tune in one of top 5 on Remix. Keep up this awesome work. I hope to listen to morerestoredGreve Graphics classics in the future. |

Gianas Sister Is Born - arranged by VergeReview by Kyusawamura, 25/11/2012 I felt something jump in me when I heard Giana Sisters' main melody play~ The leads were a bit behind the padding and all, but it still kept me all cool and wide awake.I'd say listen to all criticism and use the negative votes to your advantage :3 IMO you did it great but you can always get better ;D |

Dope - arranged by AlReview by Kyusawamura, 25/11/2012 I'm going to be honest with you and say that I didn't really like the fact that you used some of FL Studio's default instruments (BooBass and some of the drums including the crash cymbal from the Legacy samples) but the rest of all is impeccable. The earlier two are the only details I would point at, the rest, I'm speechless.Great job! ♥ |

Void (unlooped) - arranged by VipReview by Kyusawamura, 25/11/2012 I liked it very much from the beginning. It reminded me of quite the collection of MOD/XM/S3M/IT songs I had started a few years ago, they were all from the 90's and preferably around '95.What I did notice was that the main instruments lacked some stereo image, and then the clicks, along with what omoroca said about the excessive reverb. Even so, the lack of stereo image was also one thing to remind me of these particularly heart-warming and nostalgic Modules I had first mentioned. Unlike hbasm, I would have loved a long loop of this one. Keep it up~! ♥ |

Stormlord (Cinematic RMX) - arranged by Nicklas SchmidtReview by LaLa, 14/09/2012 This remix doesn't really tell a story, and thus, it doesn't feelepic. I think the root of the problem is that it's lacking in the arrangement department - it feels like a bunch of (otherwise excellent) symphonic samples were stitched together without much thought. There's no cohesion and it's short on emotions - it just doesn't seem to have its act together. To me the highlight of this remix is the quieter part of 1:32-1:47. There are plenty of emotions in those 15 seconds. The part between 2:34 and 3:05 also shows promise, although I think the buildup is architected somewhat haphazardly and thus, it also feels incomplete. Much like the entire remix which ends abruptly not long after that. Symphonic arrangements are a tough cookie, this remix makes an admirable attempt at it, but ultimately, it falls short. The samples are great, the mix is pretty good, the instruments are well-chosen - but it needs a better arrangement. |
