Nexus 6581
by Reyn Ouwehand
The first album to really demonstrate how C64 tunes could sound played live, and the first to feature demo music. Reyn Ouwehand is an ex-member of the famed Maniacs of Noise
, a C64 composer himself and a successful record producer. His considerable musical skill is showcased here. It was also demonstrated live in 2003 for Stuck in D'80s, his CD arrangements forming the bedrock of their repertoire. Highlights of this CD include the awe-inspiring C64-Oriental-tune medley Asian Legends
, and his definitive rock cover of Ben Daglish's crowd-pleaser Deflektor
. ** Now includes Nexus 6581-II tracks for download ** ** Now includes FLAC Album download provided by C64Audio Friend Daniel Martinsson **
Supremacy and Myth of Poseidon
Arranged by Markus Schneider
The arrangment is very clever in itself and the sounds are well choosen.
Only the bass frequencies are a bit too much for my ears, but that's a question of taste.
Put ya hands up in the air, Markus😉

Harlequin - Coming To Chimerica
Arranged by Binster
I've absolutely adored this tune ever since I first played Harlequin more than 20 years ago (lordy, that makes me feel old), and I've longed to hear it remixed in high-definition digital NICAM CorBlimeySound for yonks. I'd honestly given up hope that anyone might turn their talents towards it, and then suddenly this appears, and it's magnificent. It perfectly captures the simultaneously bouncy, spooky, cheerful and mysterious nature of the original composition and expands upon it in truly majestic fashion; I've given it more than a dozen listens already, and it's just as fresh, exciting and joyous every time.
This is, I can safely say, my favourite piece ever uploaded to Amiga Remix, and by golly it's in some fantastic company. An utterly wonderful piece of work, and I for one would be overjoyed if the remixer were to give his take on some of the other Harlequin tracks, or indeed any less-frequently-covered Amiga pieces. Superb!
