Ducktales 'The Amazon Session'

Accordion? Cool. I love the instruments used in this mix. It gives it a feeling. What feeling I’m not sure, but it’s there none the less. The only thing that bothers me is that the right panned instrument (some guitar of sorts) was muffled. I’m sure that was done on purpose, but I didn’t care for the sound myself. When the acoustic guitar comes in around the middle of the mix (~1:35) it sounds a lot better than the previous muffled guitar. The percussion solo at ~2:05 is really neat. The long drawn out ending suits the mix I found, along with the collective sound hit at the end. 3/5

This game is a classic for me, and to hear a remix of this song brings back so many memories. I loved how the song sounded like a live jam session. The different insturments switching soloing definately made it for me.

I've always thought this was a unique & fun mix. I've enjoyed it for some time, very smooth and relaxing. I place this high on my list...especially since I don't hear many mixes from this game. :)

i love this song. oh, and rob, in regards to your 'muffled' guitar comments, i believe a mellow jazz guitar is the sample being used, and it works perfectly, in my opinion.

cheers, gux.

I thought I should edit my old response to this song because it just didn't do Gux justice, but then I thought that this remix was so good that it needed to have some more attention brought to it.

I love this mix, I think DJP should have given even MORE kudos to Gux in the description. It is smooth, harmonic, and as a piece, wonderful to listen to. I could leave it on repeat for hours. Download it.

This is a great remix! It had a huge impact on me and now I listen to this all the time. Gux has really managed to keep the feeling from the original NES song. The sounds are perfect as is the arrangement too. And the way the instruments are used is just perfect. The accordion has an incredible flow to it and the guitars couldn´t sound any better. This is SO SWEEEET! The original is an incredible song, but this is 100000000000000000 times better. One of my favourite remixes ever. And I´m sure it´ll always be just that.
I want more...

I'm stuck in the elevator and I can't get out. Partially because I dont want to. Awesome mix. I wouldn't mind elevator music if it all sounded like this.

Wonderful instrument selection...love it.

I love when it goes jivey, with the swing drums playin....brilliant ^_^

I have to say I prefer the first part of the song...where the original melody is played on the electric(?) guitar...though Im not a huge fan of when the acoustic plays it...its the way the notes sound to me that does it...they sound obviously plucked...which Im not a fan of.

The ending is good...and puts me in mind of those french films when something slow like that plays while a broody poet reccounts his life...like that.

And the ending is pretty good too...the little one beat stab (for want of a better word) cant fail in making me smile....

I think "Amazon" was meant to be heard like this. The instrumentation is perfect, the execution is ALMOST. The mellow jazz guitar at the beginning sings the melody in front of a laid-back accordian. They switch for the second verse. The solos go well with the song too.

Just a couple of hiccups. The first one is a judgement call, but I wish the awesome countermelody at 0:28 would've made it into this remix. The second one is more technical. The acoustic guitar in the third verse needs a little tweaking. It was obviously played on a keyboard, because it issues a loud TWANG above a certain volume. The result is sporadic twanging that covers up the melody underneath. (You'll hear what I mean). It's no big thing, just something that's always dogged a keyboard guitar voice.

Props to the composer, and I love the ending.
