OverClocked ReMix...

Dune 'Arrakis (Wormsign Mix)'

This mix starts out nice and smooth. Pleasant sounding electric strings lead way into some funky tribal percussion. After a bit the percussion starts to jam. But the funky tribal percussion stays with the song until nearly the end. Good mix from Bart!

I really really really like this mix too. But the only reason I'm here is to say I'm not Bart Klepka.

This is on my top 10 list for sure. It's the atmosphere from the game that is captured so well. I loved the original music, and this remix just adds to it. Great!

One of Bart's best. I really love this song.

Its a shame he doesn't submit any of his songs here anymore. Be sure to check out his site (link on the main page) for the stuff he hasn't submitted here.

I adored the original game and it's music. Both the PC and Amiga versions
were breathtakingly awesome. I recently rediscovered the old PC-CDROM
version in my attic... so I threw together an old Pentium 75 box to play
it on. (: Ahh the magic of retroware titles. This mix is so great, it makes
me smile to listen to it. The original definatly captures that 'Dune' feel..
sort of exotic/tribal but with a modern hint or two. The remix is all that
and a bit more.

Nice, heavy, somber mood to this great remix!

Definitely one of the most dramatic remixes I've EVER heard!

Nice Dune feel too... it brings back memories of me pumping out heavy tanks and missile launchers against a horde of Ordos troops! AWESOME.

This mix is really, really great. I haven't played the game, but this song certainly evokes memories of the film for me, with its rich sound and tribal drum track. I love it.

I've heard alot of really good remixes, but this is my favorite. For starters I liked the music from the game to start, and this is actualy very close to the game, just better, like what the game would have sounded like had it been made today.

Total nostalgia (sp?)

^_^

Good track. Like all his other work.

The opening seconds with the metalicised hits is brilliant...puts me in mind of "Belfast" by orbital...which is brilliant :)

I wasnt too sure about the hits at first...the ones that play as the strings do their bit, but they seem to have grown on me...or gone away before I grew to hate them.

The first time the precussion comes in it seems to be in a different dimension to the rest of the remix...a little reverb would fix this right up. Though when the song speeds up, the drums are fine.

The melody (played on something that reminded me of a flute...and later on string like instruments) could do with being a bit louder...the drums seem to engulf it and it gets lost in the rhythms.

I have to say my favourite parts of the remix are when whatevers going on in the foreground has the synths to accompany it...cause they give it that little extra oomf of atmostphere, y'know?

I recommend to anyone...I havent played the dune game (yet) and I still think its a really good remix, so Id recommend it to anyone who;'s loking for something to chillout ot but a little upbeat at the same time...study music comes to mind.
