REVIEW BY LaLa (18/03/2006)
I really like the original SID by Reyn, it's so emotional, so powerful. So, I was looking forward to this remix.
In short: I really like it! The ethno-ambient mood is set from the first note, although I would've prefered a more washed-out piano in the intro. The pulsing, always moving base is lovely. I am a bit disappointed by the muffled lead, in fact, the only reason this remix is not getting the highest rating from me is because of that lead. A Yamaha CS-80 would work perfectly here, hint-hint. ;)
But in every regard this remix is as close to perfection as possible, it really carries forward the emotional power of the original. And it's also of perfect length: it doesn't drag on, nor is it too short to get us in the mood. Or, shall I say, in the "moog"... |

Skitz shouts: I am liking moog's style - very much jazz funk and really easy to listen to. Well produced and masterd but again not enough variety on the original SID
Chris Abbott shouts: Not so keen on the piano, but otherwise good work. A bit of a change from that Sanxion he did ages ago which I ripped ;-)
LMan shouts: Fantastic ambience, flawless production. And sooo moody.:)
Waz shouts: It's very good, but there's just something missing for me. Maybe it's because I'm so attached emotionally to Reyn's original SID, but the production is fine and clean. It just lacks emotion a little bit.
Makke shouts: Smoooooth! Not flawless, but I like it so much I'm willing to forgive.;)
Dan shouts: So mellow man, the tune just passes thru you without the need to listen hard
weasel shouts: Wow! Man, you are starting to scare me a bit now!! This is the 3rd one in a row here now from you which definitly shows heavy style and knowledge!! :-) Really, really great! Looking forward to see more in the future hopefully! The new rko-star?!;-)
dafunk shouts: Am I liking this? Oh yeah!:)
eliot shouts: I guess I get used to orange...;-)
romeo_knight shouts: Great choice of tune (although it has no nostalgia appeal) and great adaption!
plastikbag shouts: This is simply incredible.
devilhood shouts: You have quite a standard with your pieces, now it would be interesting to hear something a lot more daring.
exo shouts: Lovely! Excellent atmosphere, solid instruments, solid sound.
humorguy shouts: Played this on a third date. It worked! So it has to be a red in the bed score!:)
mfe shouts: Funky in a laid-back way. Very creative.
floaf shouts: *Melting* :-P
sebuko shouts: I´m beginning to love moogs tracks. Each on seems to be another masterpiece. This one would be very great for an cinematic C65 comercial in 2007 :-)
omoroca shouts: Strange how moog's songs always remind me of another song. This one reminds me of "Dream within a dream" from the 1985 "Propaganda" album "A secret wish". Not flawless??? It's perfect! Added to my collection.
