REVIEW BY LMan (02/06/2008)

Interesting approach, although it's kind of overdone with the bit-crushing and distortion: it initially might make you wonder if the destroyed sound was intentional or an unfortunate accident during the mixdown.

The second part from 2:48 onwards finds a better balance between distortion and distinguishable sounds: it doesn't try to do everything at the same time.

Overall, I would love to hear this with better execution and smarter use of the distortion effects. Thumbs up for daring something out-there with the oft-remixed Comic Bakery.

Overall:


kwed shouts: If Aphex Twin did a C64 remix, it would probably sound like this.
MORBID shouts: WTF? All the instruments are distorted? ! Sounds like the speakers have been tortured!
Amok shouts: Errr.... If my headphones arent completely out of order this is just amazing... Amazing shit!!! Mr. RKO seem to love distortion... OMG....
rochus shouts: If your speakers aren't broken yet, this remix will do it. Sounds like "double-the-volume-and-dont-care-about-clipping". The drums are WAY too prominent, the arrangement is boring and repeating, and it has increased the size of my trashfolder by 7. 6 MB.
Mordi shouts: Is this a genre? Distortion? If the instruments werent distorted it would still only maybe be a pretty average remix.
nicodaemus shouts: Gave a green, although I enjoyed it. Nothing to listen to twice, nothing that impressed me, but that one-time enjoyment partially saved this.
gamleerik shouts: I thought my head set was broken. Please don't do something like that again. Ever.:(
Rodden shouts: This does not do it for me.... Sorry....
c64glen shouts: The mix is terrible, ruins everything.
Caboose shouts: Worst remix of the year? No wait, but still bad.
chilli_uk shouts: Sounds like you sampled the c64 samples - and to be honest the only thing comic about it is the quality - sorry - doesnt do anything for me
cosmic_gerbil shouts: I like it. The bass could do with coming down a bit, but still it is a groovy tune.
PARALAX shouts: Hopeless overdubbed! Did you ever hear something like a hardware or software limited. Good luck next time!
Ic3m4n shouts: Like mentioned above... Sorry
Maegnuz shouts: I actually like it, mostly because of the bass and the originality of the sound.
scyphe shouts: The distortion may be original but that doesn't warrant a plus. It just sounds like something muddy being played through a broken speaker.
aero shouts: Too distorted but could have become quite interesting
Agemixer shouts: Nice distortion & lofi, but it is missing some balls and yet too long...
prowler shouts: WTF, you forgot to distort the bass!!!:-)
GlenBenton shouts: WOARGH
LaLa shouts: Way too much distortion and clipping for my taste (if it was an artistic choice and not a mistake). Boring instruments, so-so arrangement.
Dumper shouts: Holy shit! I had to get my speakers from my neighbours garden after listening to this, distorted beyond belief.
luegisdorf shouts: Well, it's a little bit chatter like, but I like it anyway. This intepretation reminds me rather to a factory than just a bakery, may be assembly line production?:)
anaconda shouts: No no no NO!
Makke shouts: I don't get this. And it's hurting both my ears and speakers. *turns off*
z80 shouts: Nice tune variation but its much repeating and distortion comes too hard. Anyway thumbs up for style.
condor shouts: You really are master for distorsion... But it hurts my ears.
Satanarchist shouts: Martin Galway would attack you with a 1541 drive if heard this, best to delete it.
