REVIEW BY Instant Remedy (07/06/2004)

This remix is real nice, much depending on the fact that it sounds like Laserdance/Koto but with the energy times 2!
Sonic Wanderer has evolved from the traditional dance-sound to the spacedance genre with his latest remixes and with great results.

He has the the right feel and sound, but with a lot more energy and a more contemporary sound. The percussion is great and not so soft/oldskool as the genre otherwise suggests (and it doesn't sound compressed to death either, good work :-)) Vocoder parts also real cool.
Haven't heard the original yet, but I really like this remix.

I Wish I get some spare time some day to experiment with the spacedance genre too...

REVIEW BY ahris (24/05/2004)

I love this remix, mostly because it really makes my Laserdance nerve twitch and it sounds VERY much like Laserdance. :-)

I was a huge fan of this kind of Dutch synthesizer dance music (Laserdance, Proxyon, Koto...) in the mid to late 80s.
During that period i listened almost exclusively to SID tunes and this kind of music so they are closely linked in my mind, wich means that this remix brings about massive amounts of nostalgia for someone like me.

The original SID tune is quite average in my opinion, but this remix definately brings it to a new level so i have to say that Sonic Wanderer did a really good job with it. :-)

REVIEW BY draco (13/07/2004)

This is excellent indeed! I just listened this over and over when I got this.
I don´t know, maybe there are just those kind of disco melodies here that I happen to like. Afterwards I started to think, where on earth could this song had been originally. I then found it in sid -format and it can hardly be recognized from the remix but it´s there. This great inspiration increases the value of the remix but then again, there´s not any nostalgic point of view atleast for me. Still I consider this as a masterpiece.

REVIEW BY odie (06/06/2004)

Oh yeah! Just returned from holidays to find this remix of my old C64 theme! There are a few bars I wished were also incorporated into this mix, just to give it a little more, but overall, I mentioned to the other Cosine members that I thought it was "Bloody Marvellous"!!!

I especially love the lovely female voice, it makes it even more better for me! OK, so someone gonna try and do a conversion of my Turbo-Charge Fastlane theme? Or, do I have to do it myself?
