Spy vs. Spy 'ambient antiques'

I like this one. Never heard the original. Doesn't remind me of Mad Magazine in any way, shape or form. Just cool music that has some NES type sounds as one of the main instruments. Although it is under 4 minutes it still seems a teeny tiny bit too long for me. Not quite enough variety but still decent.

I recently heard this being played on Nectarine Demoscene radio
www.scenemusic.net

I had almost forgotten about it. It's an old remix, but it's a nice light take
on the theme. Neat.

HANDS DOWN one of my top 5 remixes here... provokes nostalgia, AND does it with class! good work my friend!

This remix has such a unique sound... It sounds so grainy. Zyron needs to make another remix! :D

This is a great example of taking a source tune and really playing to it's strengths. By taking an old 8bit theme and giving it a driving beat with some sonar sounding synth and several other filters, it sounds like it would be at home in a more modern stealth action game.

Though the original theme is repetitive, the way the melody fades in and out with a few breaks into other melody lines keeps it interesting throughout.

Of the two Spy VS Spy remixes, I think this one is the best.

I'm a big fan of the source tune, which has a simple but great hook. Like Andrew mentioned above me, this arrangement really does play to the original's strengths. Good fusion of synthwork, beats and chiptune, and a very loopable track. Look for more of Zyron's stuff in the Commodore arrangement scene.

It's hard to say it better than that. I very vaguely remember the source, but I'm trusting OA's opinion on this, and my vague recollection.

This really adds to the original, in such a good way. Awesome.

Ahhh, gotta love those oldschool sounds. Very pleasant, if a bit backgroundish. I'm going to keep this, I have a feeling it might grow on me more.

The sounds in this seem deceptively simple... It's cool how everything is layered really nicely; it sets up quite the mood indeed.

There were a couple patches where it sounded like it might be dragging on a bit, but then the song took a new direction which I really appreciate. Good listen!

This mix is smooth, subtle, coldly industrial, and very espionage-like.

It evokes images of cold war era Soviet spies, which is very appropriate considering the game
The introduction reminds me of a factory theme, sorta, and then at 0:20, the two spies in the room become aware of each other and their deadly game of cat and mouse begins.

I like it; it feels whoally contained and polished.
