Story

What? Another take on Sanxion? Yeah, why not? This time, I went for a more slow downbeat:esque style with violins messing about in the background. Not much more to say I think, apart from the fact that I am now personally responsible of 1/10:th of all the Sanxion remixes on RKO.

Really chilled and pleasant take on Sanxion! Nice one!
NecroPolo shouts:
Do you guys remember those '90s noise pictures where you had to X-eye and false-focus your eye view and finally an X-Wing appeared in 3D? This track is like that. Quite different what my mind would suspect of Sanxion but works nevertheless. Good work.
Ahriakin shouts:
Beautiful full mix of an interesting new take of an oft mixed classic. Wonderful stuff as usual sir.

I love it! And despite its subtitle, I think I will fall asleep to this, it's the perfect tune for that! A bunch of wonderful spacey pads, a subtle violin, a beautiful, gentle arrangement at 72 bpm - everything is here, ready for chilling on a Saturday night!

Very downbeat in its style, but that also offers the substance too. It's a very different take on the classic, and for that it does deserve praise for being out there and daring to be different. In fact, the only reason for me not giving it red overall is that there's no ambient nod to the middle section of the original - just the opening and ending hooks.
