REVIEW BY wwwwolf (13/05/2003) Okay, first a confession: I really, really, really love the LN2 Central Park tune. It is in my opinion one of the greatest SIDtunes ever made. Nay, the best!Ever since I first played Last Ninja 2, I had one idea in my mind. "The central park tune needs to be done with a real orchestra." Far later I got to the net, slowly found sites that had game remixes. Most of them did have remixes of the central park theme, but not good ones. "Let me clarify: Rock. Or heavy metal. *Not* goddamned techno." And then I found this Puffy's remix (or earlier version of it, actually), and I was completely blown away. Here's a remix of a song that really does *everything* on the song right. It uses instruments well, and leaves the Matt Gray's original guitar voices there in parts (in my opinion, the greatest-sounding synthetic electric guitars ever made =) The tribute album version is very good also, and in my opinion even more faithful to the original (even when the said synth-guitars were toned down a little). If there's anything to criticize, it sounds just a little bit cluttered at times. Sounds completely drowning behind the guitars. And I wish the tribute version had had just a little bit more of the said synthguitars. But even with its flaws... This is how the song should sound like! This is how game remixes should be made! This is how to cut to the essence of SID music! |
