Shouts
Skitz shouts:
This is nice and keeps the feel of the original SID. However, for me the definitive remix in from Nexus 6581 by Reyn :)
Boz shouts:
Yep, I'm liking this one. Lots of SIDiness in it, and it keeps pounding along.
Chris Abbott shouts:
Very clever use of SID. Very subtle, considering how loud it is
Makke shouts:
I'm absolutely loving this!
Dan shouts:
Cant vote this anything else, great use of the sid and a pounding track...
Waz shouts:
Very nice effort, excellent use of instruments and sounds quite Industrial in parts. It also has plenty of flow and feel and keeps the spirit of the original nicely. Reyn would be proud!
Tas shouts:
Nice blend and clever use of SID indeed. Main thing is it works really well.
Ziphoid shouts:
This is VERY nicely done. One of the better LN3 remixes out there.
infamous shouts:
Its like a high class version of the ones you used to get back in 2000.. No real complaints at all its just been done many times before.
dimmignatt shouts:
Nothing that hasn't been done before.. Still it's very good =)
jemym shouts:
Finally a worthy remix that keeps the power of the original.
zuckerfrei shouts:
OMFG! Who could claim to be in to SID and would vote anything else....?
eeksock shouts:
Wow.
are_be shouts:
Very spacey and atmospheric piece of music. The interludes throughout the track were intriguing and well executed.
tony.rc shouts:
The remix has a great atmosphere and the SIDness is great, it gives you flashbacks to the LN3's intro.
LaLa shouts:
Powerful, in-your-face mix, one of the best LN remixes out there. A little too saturated for my taste, though. Probably the best use of the original SID tune in a remix ever.
eliot shouts:
Hmm... Can't catch why ppl get so excited about this rmx... Big minus for 128kbps, too much SID, limited inspiration.
load_error shouts:
Fat production, enjoyed it a lot!
romeo_knight shouts:
Great rendition! Except those siddy arp chords - would have been a red one instead!
ifadeo shouts:
A real nice remix.....
Gothmog shouts:
NICE! Close to the original AND a good sound... Love it!
weasel shouts:
Very nice version of a real _classic_! :-D Damn... And as a pure LN-fan I can't give it anything else than a very good (or better! ;-) ) More kewl LN remixes please! :-D (and I'm still waiting for the ultimate maniac mansion remix, too!;-) )
cappalccio shouts:
Can't stop listening to it! Very powerful with lots of detail and depth. Stays close to the original in heart, but produced in a scale and class as to be released on the soundtrack of a blockbuster movie!
prowler shouts:
Great stuff! I really needed this, it was too long time ago since we had a really good Last Ninja remix.
brix shouts:
Great Stuff! It has not lost any of the original's energy and power. I can even see the LN3-intro when I close my eyes. Perfect.
montymole shouts:
WOW... The soundtrack to an non-existent movie
daborg shouts:
Oh... My... God...
sebuko shouts:
Sounds very impressive and the sidfeeling is still there.
datucker shouts:
Great remix, very nice atmosphere!
omoroca shouts:
Powerful! No, more than that: BOMBASTIC! And lots of atmosphere. Added to my collection.
nicodaemus shouts:
Simply the best. Can someone hit me for forgetting to vote even if I listened to this track countless times?
Supergrobi123 shouts:
Very nice remix!
ZnL shouts:
One of the best remixes ever!
condor shouts:
Great, great, great!
Nebdar shouts:
The Power the nostalgia
LMan shouts:
Killer tune!
SarahKreuz shouts:
Awesome Track
Ryrynz shouts:
Very nice, such a shame it's SO compressed sounding and at 128kb/s otherwise it'd be a red.
Samryde shouts:
Great and better copy from the original
Fhood shouts:
It gives me anything special..
john4p shouts:
Superb remix.

Does the original justice by maintaining the epic, foreboding soundscape. Industrial, electronical goodness combined with a great selection of instruments and the occasional sparkle of raw SID sound. Absolutely faboulous.

From the first few seconds, you can hear that this piece just jumps straight into the action, piggybacking off the SID. This piece immerses you into the music with its sweeping motions; something not easily done without using dynamic audio enchancement. Every instrument can be determined, and the subtle tones made keep me more than interested throughout the piece

This by far improves on the current soundtrack, and is what I would expect for a remake on a modern system, but I regret that the ending could have been done a few seconds earlier; a section of the buildup is played when it would be just left to a calming fade.
