For all the talk about how mediocre this arrangement was at Remix64, I thought this track was pretty solid and I'm glad it's up here.

Considering how "ho-hum" most of the Euro scene was on this one, I wish the Commodore arrangement scene sent more goodness our way. I'm (a little) more familiar with R:K:O and AMIGAremix's stuff, and people around here don't know what kind of goodness they're missing over there.

Well, I certainly understand the "generic" comments that the judges made. It definitely is that. It is still kinda catchy, but nothing new/
Really, there's not a whole lot more to say about it IMO.

I'm a big fan of anything Eurodancey and liked this well enough. I was expecting something (from the Synthpop in the title) more along the lines of Neuroticfish or Echo Image but this sounds a bit more spacesynth to me.

Anyhow, it was mixed a bit thin overall, could have used a lot more stereo imaging/panning but music wise it was fine and fun to listen to. Good work..

Default Catchy

For all the controversy over this mix I got alot more than I had expected.
While not overly creative or as developed as some might have liked, this song is GREAT to listen to while working on completing a task. It's catchy, upbeat and very easy to listen to. Great to keep you working busily and happily. It balances repetition and deviation very well to keep the listener interested without causing distraction. Great for falling into a productive trance!

Nice work.

in the begining, the beat was kind of off from the song but after that point it got better and better, it almost sounds like a techno DDR song. great job!

I don't think I've heard that kind of base on ocr in about three years. You could actually say that about half the synths used. That doesn't make it bad per se, but I have no idea how it passed in comparison to umpteen rejected mixes that had slightly worse production and significantly better arrangement.

I also don't agree with djpretzel's compliments regarding the stuttering. The synth is too quiet to hear the effect properly, and it only compounds the volume level issues.
