Bionic Commando (Tune 5)
|
|
This remix was created for the Tim Follin Arrangement Project.
It was a must-do for me since the day I decided to do remixes.
Thanks to my friend Knut for lending his Nylon string acoustic guitar (made in GDR - to get the communistic latin mood into the tune!
) to me.
Also thanks to Chris Abbott for providing the Wizball Hiscore tune for the intro.
Extra special thanks to my precious voice talents:

REVIEW BY immacolata (11/08/2006) Lovely. Just lovely. You can't help smiling and tapping your foot to the rhythm. It really catches the original melody awfully well, yet it sounds salsa like. Spanish guitar, some good percussion and tin drums. I love it when people remix songs in new styles without falling for novelty. |

LMan shouts: Woo-hoo! This sure does justice to the original. Salsa fusion spiced with Romeo Knight's usual flawless guitar play. This would work great as a TV series theme. kwed shouts: The intro alone deserves the "Outstanding" vote (notice the Wizball high-score theme playing in the background). And it just gets better from then on. Chris Abbott shouts: Outstanding! Waz shouts: Subtle use of the Wizball high score in the intro, and then the salsa guitar kicks in and really blows you away. It really works as a slightly more ethnic feel throughout, and would be perfect TV theme fodder. Way to go, Eike! Dan shouts: Just fantastic from the intro right the way thru to the end, flawless guitar infused with salsa and a bionic arm, what could go wrong?:) Makke shouts: I. Love. This. Remix. Might be the remix of the year right here. Excellent production, arrangement and loaded with humour! This is perfection! moog shouts: Just perfect :) plastikbag shouts: Wonderful! It's just fun to listen to. The animal sounds gave me a good laugh. dimmignatt shouts: Incredible as usual when it comes to Romeo the Shining (Shred) Knight!! Flawless Salsa interpration of Bionic Commando. Though I feel the lead electric guitar is a tad weak.. Keeping this from a RED one! infamous shouts: I agree with kwed.. That beginning deserves the red face alone, the rest of the tune.. Well if I could give 2 red faces.. I would. load_error shouts: LOL, excellent. Reminds me some tunes by Puya... chabee shouts: Good job!!! beyond shouts: Fabulous, simply fabulous condor shouts: Excellent. Althought I do not see this as c64 remix, more like a intro to some comedy-like TV series :) gibs shouts: I like this tune :) I like this remix and the jazzrock guitar solo :) and this perfect sound... I'm jealous :) hornza shouts: I love it, nice blend of spanish, caribbean and rock :) Danceaway shouts: Fantastic production!!! My all time no. 1 remix was Rastan by G. R. Brown but Romeo you have just took the all time no. 1 spot with this perfect remix!!!! Top stuff man!!!!! schlicky shouts: This just ROCKS! prowler shouts: Cool! The intro in fun but kind of weak. But when the main tune kicks in, it's a red one after all! dumper shouts: A really enjoyable mix. maindrian shouts: How do you top this? Yes, thats right, you can't. Perfectly recorded, perfectly played, just... Perfect in everyway. nickenstien shouts: AWESOME!! (i wanted to do a bionic-commando with kettle-drums, but mine would have been shite anyway :p). Elec-Guitar reminds me of the UK snooker theme :D, I Especialy love the accoustic-g and percussion. Hope you had a cool BDay too. I LOVE THIS TUNE :D eliot shouts: Very good effort, distorted guitar a bit too quiet or powerless, dunno how to describe it ;-) quarex shouts: This is a pretty outlandish synthesis of comedy and serious musicianship, and actually pulling it off pretty much guarantees it a fantastic score. Though I want the outro to lead into an alternate remix! dafunk shouts: Wow! wizzrobe shouts: Great stuff
grytulf shouts: Proffesional sound, unimprovable the original tune is to weak, not really worth listening to more than once ifadeo shouts: Very Good! Not my favorite remix from RK.... But still a HQ remix. binster shouts: Top notch :) Mayhem shouts: Just. Plain. Weird ;) feark shouts: Really great. This tune give the vibes to just... Get away from the horrible weather here in scandinavia to some more sunny place. devilhood shouts: Very, very nice, wacky and fun. Some of the acoustic guitar, particularly the strummed out backing chords over the distortion solo could have tighter, mainly because of how they sit in the stereo mix. That's just me being picky though. LaLa shouts: Funny and fun! Noticed the Wizball tune at the beginning? That's funny! The salsa style is fun! The arrangment is just perfect. Some minor stuff keeps it from being red (like the somewhat weak lead guitar). tony.rc shouts: Outstanding! It sets a very relaxing and joyful atmosphere. weasel shouts: Ahahaha!! HOW great is THAT, guys!? :-D Really fantastic! The intro... Mega-hilarious-funny! The tune... Very amusing and spirit-keeping newly styled and flavoured! Great! the_jinx shouts: Great tune!! Love the intro.. And summer sounds.. apollo2k shouts: Thats great really funny track hillsman shouts: Brilliant - bonkers interpretation of Follin's amazing original. The intro is class, clever and so damn appropriate!! skyy shouts: It was funky to listen to. anaconda shouts: I'm either too tired of this tune, or Hawaiian noises in general. Solid remake though. humorguy shouts: Coragous smart and on the nipple m8! Nada shouts: Mr Follin must be dead happy! Humour, attitude, psychedelic interludes and guitar from GDR! redi72 shouts: Wonderful, just wonderful... vhold shouts: Feel good remix of the year. g3r shouts: Nice track, very good guitars and the "animal fx" is killer :) speedy shouts: Great idea.
omoroca shouts: Sounds like the opening music for the 80's TV series Magnum. Not Very original! And overrated. Only "Average". soppa shouts: Another one to put on the playlist, I really like the idea and the style of the remix, and that whole 64 bacardis joke is an instant classic! oddball shouts: Wah? ! Now that's something different! Outstanding! Kicsipati shouts: Brilliant Music. Congratulations:) Shado shouts: Usually I dislike this kind of music, but this version is even better than the original markg shouts: Amazing, as always. rgraneru shouts: Romeo has a brilliant take on the tune as always. Gotta love that intro. Amok shouts: Just "outstanding"...;) el sid shouts: Outstanding remix! This is one of my absolute favourites around here. I like the humour in it. How do you want to carry it then? In my mp3-player!!! rancourt shouts: Nothing short of epic. Funky, fun, spirited and playful. I love it.
