Summer vacation for the jurorsThe submission systems for both Remix.Kwed.Org and AmigaRemix.com have now been switched off until the 24th of August to give the jurors the possibility to rest from their duties and recharge the batteries for the rest of the year.
If you still want to showcase your tracks until the submission is reactivated, feel free to post your tracks on the forum, since there most certainly will be people around to enjoy them during the summer. It could of course also be a good thing even for the remixers to leave the keys for a bit and enjoy the summer. ;) - Ziphoid & Kwed 25/06/2009

 Terra Cresta Remix
Arranged by Razmo It's not that often a remix is on par with the original, often missing essential ingredients of the original in terms of atmosphere, groove, etc. It's extremely rare to see a remix improve on the original, or add original elements that can stand alone. I feel Razmo's remix of Terra Cresta is one of those very rare occasions. It succeeds in terms of both atmosphere, technical merit, and especially originality. The robotic intro speak is a real nice touch that sets the scene right away, and builds up perfectly for the first introduction of the main beat. My favourite parts are actually not in the original SID, at 1:49 min. & 3:11 min., a new theme by Razmo that really rocks my socks off. Yeah! Mixing is excellent with nice balancing, though a tad too much reverb and slightly muddy eq makes clarity suffer a bit, compared to commercial quality, mind you.. More please! This deserves a much higher ranking!

Warhawk (Don't Feed the Warhawk mix)
Arranged by Mutherpluckin' B Awesome folk-rock intro (ZZ Top?), I wish the entire tune was kept in that style. I was fully expecting some vocals after that, but the sharp synth lead starting from 0:45 totally destroyed the feeling. I like the lead from 2:57 much better. Then from 3:35 the piano (which is too weak btw) is a welcome change that brings us back to folk-rock territory. The outro is amazing again, like the intro was. All in all, the basic idea is great, the backing tracks are arranged very well. Change or at least tone down that sharp synth lead, and it'll surely get some red smilies!

Crystal Dreamscapesby Chris AbbottOne of the most innovative Commodore remix CDs ever created. Beautiful and inspiring, it delivers a stream of uninterrupted consciousness ideal for programming, chilling, or even soothing a child! Most tracks on this CD are based on Commodore 64 tunes, though the names of the tracks have been changed so as to enhance its universal appeal, and to avoid puncturing the delicate reality it spins. Highlights include the liquid crystalline cavern sound of Chimera (Here called "Liquid Crystal"), melancholy transforming to joy in "Trap" (here called "Dusk before Dawn"), and the ultimate joy of two Tim Follin LED Storm reworks. Priced to fulfil its spiritual mission!
