Listening to this, I'd say the drums are a bit too overwhelming. At several points they're drowning out the rest of the mix. I like a lot of the ideas presented here, but I just can't get past those drums. If the supporting percussion (shakers, tambourine, cymbals, whatever it all is) was turned down a bit I think I would find this much more enjoyable.

Is it just me or are all the links to this mix missing a ".mp3"?

I think it died.

It's still up on the SuperTux mirror, though.

Overall well produced and catchy. I found that the way that either some instruments, or the track as a whole was compressed is somewhat distracting. I think I understand the sound you're going for, but to me it takes away from track.

I would have preferred hearing a more "open" version of the tune. Overall nice job, I can dig it..

from writeup: "the mix title alludes to a fairly AYBABTU quote from one of the game's scintillating dialog sequences."

One of the funny things about this is Dr. Acula is quoting a French author, Andre Malraux. So the writing is actually brilliant. Ok, it's still not brilliant, but still.

Anyway, as usual Noppz delivers. More SotN remixes please.

The answer is:

Very nice :D.

Some parts sound like something out of Diddy Kong Racing. But a bit of cheeze isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Really enjoying this "tricked" out CV mix.
Haven't heard anything with trip-hop and CV together before.
Holy water!
