REVIEW BY Chris Abbott (23/01/2003)

This tune has always been a smokey back-alley New York tune to me, so hearing it done so synthily is more difficult to like than it should be. The lead (which should be a smoky sax played by a real cool sax player) is a dry synth which doesn't convey the atmosphere of back-alley melancholia that it deserves. The rest of the backing is rather reminiscent of Sega's arcade work. Very atmospheric synth stabs add a touch of class, taking it from a 6 to a 7 overall. There are more atmospheric versions of this tune, but it's still worth a download.

LaLa shouts: It's more ambient than I would expect from a remix of this SID, but strangely, it works for me. I quite like the way the lead is handled with the right portamentos. Yeah, it's an XM, so what. It's still good.
omoroca shouts: Nice! Although there are better remixes of this tune.
