Arkanoid (Title Screen) - arranged by Richard WestallReview by Tomsk, 17/01/2003 Often the 'sid chip' gets forgotten about when an artist decides to remix a sid tune. In the early days of R64 many tunes were simply sid tunes with drums. I'd class this as a Sid remix with sid drums and some! Keeping the distinctive style of drum and sid this remix is just a dream to listen to. Not spoiling the original but enhancing it to a very professional level. Excellent! |

Gyroscope (Eels Driving the Hovercraft) - arranged by Rauli & WobblerReview by Tomsk, 17/01/2003 I remember first hearing this. Having allready been a fan of this short and simple tune I didn't think this huge style change would work. But it does. And it works bloody well. Having managed to arrange the tune to last a bit longer without becoming too repetitive is one of the master strokes. Then comes the very original element of the remix - one that really enhances a fairly simple sid tune and turn it into a melodic masterpiece. Great sounds, effects, and enhencement. Excellent! |

Dark Side (Rethink) - arranged by MontyReview by Tas, 17/01/2003 Quite a mamoth tune coming in at over 6:40 mins. There are some great back ground sounds to this tune, and the blend of bassey sounds and high end sounds make for a listening pleasure.The tune is both varied and well thought out throughout the piece. The remix has more than a touch of jarre feeling, but adds much more so to not leave non jarre fans out! I suppose the only let down to this track is that the main lead doesn't offer a great deal, and by and large remains the same throughout and also doesn't quite fulfill the beautiful ambiance of the background. All said and done, this really is a mamoth tune, which I liked alot! good work! |

Flight Path 737 - arranged by Tim ForsythReview by Tas, 17/01/2003 The remix of Flight path 737 reminds me of a cheesy late 70's early 80's fererro roche advert. I'm not saying because of this it's a poor remix, cos in all truth it's very well performed with some excellent choices of instruments, and above all it ooses emotion.tho, the tune is basic, it's perfectly orchestrated proving without a shadow of doubt that you don't have to over complicate matters to bring out a damn fine piece of work. |

Flight Path 737 - arranged by Tim ForsythReview by LMan, 17/01/2003 Beautyfully arranged! Tim Forsyth takes us up to higher dimensions with his chillouty remix ofFlight Path 737. The arrangement reminds me a little of Clannad. Very good instrumentation and a lot of emotion make this tune Outstanding for me. |

Flight Path 737 - arranged by Tim ForsythReview by LaLa, 03/01/2003 What an impeccable arrangement! You managed to add so much emotion to the tune just with that. But the instrumentation is outstanding, too. One of the commenters mentioned Kitaro - yeah, I agree, it's very much in his style. A beautiful, beautiful rendition of a touching melody. I am writing this comment in 2020, 17 years after you published this tune, and it definitely stood the test of time. |
