REVIEW BY rafael (25/04/2004) Ah... the Desert Dream. Days gone by and all that. Actually, to start off - what really makes this remix for me is the intro with Cinemaware's "It came from the Desert" intro speech integrated - direclty from the classic three disk Amiga game. What a brilliant idea. The speech sample set the atmosphere perfectly and blends nostalgia of the game with Kefrens' amazing Amiga demo, which in fact appeared some years later but rounds up the idea of this remix nicely. Laxity wasn't really (in my view) one of the best Amiga musicians, also being coder if I remember correctly, though he did create this little masterpiece. A catchy melody, some excellent samples and an impressive standard-setting demo to go with it. But I'm off the topic now, Freekzoid's remix is really excellent too: The eerie intro, some clear and crips sounds, good porting of the original to a more modern synth sound and great mastering. The tune itself gives little room for manouvering, so Freekzoid has gone for expanding on the basic idea of the tune, leaving it shrt and simple but amazingly to-the-point. Thumbs up! |

REVIEW BY dimmignatt (25/05/2004) Well what have we here
The old Desert Dream part 1 by Anders E Hansen (Laxity) So with that said over to the review. When i first saw this song in the number one position i just had to listen to it. At first it's really strange sound that got me thinking what is this ?? Then i heard the "it came from the desert" speach i thought it was a cool way to start this song. Then the song starts with the intro and i feel my self at home Though when the melody starts you used a type of instrument that i for one dont think fits in  but hey there is always someone who likes that to.
The drums is almost like the orginal and i think it sucks (i have nothing against that drumbeat) but maybe you should have tried some other beat ?? anyway the remix overall is pretty good and to see that someone else like this song is amazing I for one has always loved this song and remixes like this are always welcome.. Keep up the work. |
