Wow. That was quick. Teh_goat showed this to me in IRC and I loved it. Had it on repeat for almost two hours. The production on this song is excellent. No muddiness, no instrument clashing, just clean Top 40 rockin goodness. Vocals are witty, well recorded and suit the genre perfectly. The guitar solo is not extravagant, once again fitting the "vocal line improv" soloing that is quite common in songs of this genre.

I am very impressed by this mix. And, to clear up my confusion, this is NOT by Goat. :)

Yeah this is really really sweet. I have always wanted to hear a kick ass take on ken's theme, and here we have it. Probably more than I could have ever asked for. I have to admit at first I was skeptical when I read on djp's write up that there were lyrics to this one, being afraid they would ruin an otherwise good remix. But after hearing this, all I can say is - wow. Rock on man. Now all you need is a music video and OCR followers everywhere can vote this onto TRL.

Ken happens to be my favorite character and that theme was stuck in my head. I just checked back here and BLAM! the first Ken theme. I love it, I have listened to it about 5 times in a row and it never gets old.

Easily among one of the best vocal remixes on the site.

Great production, decent mixing and mastering.

At least something nice has finally come out of Australia.

I have a tendency to shy away from mixes with lyrics, but this is really well done. I was really impressed by the strong opening. Deserves some major air time, imho! Nice work! :)

Ok, so this started out like numerous mixes, but then BAM!! awesome vocals. There are VERY few remixes on OCR that actually use original lyrics effectively, even fewer that compile them into complete songs. Ken is my favorite player in the SF series, and this song was an amazing tribute to his kickass ability...to kick ass. :) Great job. My only gripe is that sometimes the vocals are hard to understand, or not synched with the music (though that's probably just because of what kind of music I'm used to). This was very well developed overall. 5/5, 5 stars, 100%, whatever you want.

I'd almost give them Foster's, too, or at least the amusing advertisements.

Really anthematic mix - just reiterating my appreciation.
