Story

For me, the track is one with the most memorable melodies. I have split the mix into 2 parts. The first part is more the classic C64 sound.

 

The second half starts from minute 2.21. There the track becomes more modern, but also in the background the C64 sounds are still recognizable.

A tale of two remixes.The first half (up until 2:21) is just not to my liking at all. Simplistic drums, simplistic instrumentation, and most importantly, the chord progression sounds off (compared to the original). I get it, you were going for that simple 8-bit sounds, but sorry, it just doesn't work for me.The second half of this remix, however, would probably get an orange if it was a tune by itself. That part is done more to my liking, with the electric guitars dominating it and the drums driving the rhythm so well.
