I have them both, along with the rest of RKO. My favourite Feekzoid mix is Platoon, not too fond of this style. Bart's I like better. But I think this classic deserves more work. Not at the scale of Last Ninja of course, but at least two more tries, not even close to "remixed to death". :) Anyway, just a suggestion.

Tusker Tune 2

Post by Felix. »

The Desert Tune from Tusker hasn't been remixed yet! I think it is a time to try to remix this tune. It is a great material for a fast dance track in my opinion. What do You think?

I think I'd like a Mike Oldfield-style epic remake of Tusker. Are you up for it? :) Well given a choice I'd like either a thorough medium-size medley going from slow ambient into a more rhythmic/dance-like mode with cool instrumentation, or, I'd like individual subsongs remixed with cool instrumentation and perfect ambient sound in the spirit of the original. :) The first tune is best I think, parts of the others are also great. This tune has potential.

I think that Larsec and Markus Schneider would do a good job of remixing the first tune (which I guess is the same as subtune 1?), because their style matches it. As for some of the other subtunes I love Gecko Yamori's work. But thats just to pick "stereotypes" that might be suitable remixers according to my taste...

Which is the track that sounds similar to the Sewers of "Last Ninja 2"? Is it subtune 3? Thats my favourite. I'd like to hear a hard and fast electronica version of that. I think Bart did a good job with it, but it needs to be even harsher. His version was slightly too smooth for my tastes, not as menacing as it should be.

Don't know, I think I fancy having a shot at that. Not exactly practical to my style of making music, but worth a try someday.
Great, another set of strings ruined...

Got a "Wrath of the Demon" subtune 3 remix coming soon. Maybe. I'm still having trouble deciding if its worth releasing yet. That kind of thing. I've got a huge list of sids I want to get started on too, most likely is "Agresso-Hubbard" by Tonka.
