It's hard for me to describe the immense feeling of absolute joy I get from this ReMix . . . I was going to ReMix Lemmings, but now I don't feel like I even need to - this mix is fantastic, and floats by so nicely, using just the right sounds and just the right sequencing, so as to make almost any other mix of this theme, at least, pale in comparison. It's that good . . . . sure, it's short, but it really is quite perfect. Mucho Kudos to first-time contributor dabombinc. for a great showing!!

That mellow sound... the lemmings... I searched OCR and rediscovered this fine track.
So cool.

Well, it's great that this guy is remixing a game with music as great as Lemmings - but I gotta say that I was a little disappointed in this version. It loops through the intro melody a little too much for me, and although it does hold some nice atmosphere; the dance/techno style wasn't how I remembered the original song, and it doesn't really build up... it just uses the same 1 beat throughout the whole song overtop of the old melody. It's ok, but doesn't really incorporate anything I haven't seen before; so I wouldn't say that it's great (the 'sonar' type instrument in the background was a cool addition though). If you want to hear the original version off the CD, here it is:

I actually like the songs on the disk version better than the CD's 23 tracks though, as you get to hear them keep repeating forever - and they seem to hold something a little deeper in their simpler format (certainly wonderful enough to make me want to cry sometimes! Ahhh, Lemmings music is so great!). Like I said, reading all these reviews was awesome; and it's an ok remix... but I think this guy could have gone alot farther with the variety in this one (which would, of course, give the composer alot more freedom to give the song a longer length too). Mazedude's Lemmings song is still by far my favorite on the site; but it's cool that there are other people who see the potential in these classic tunes. :)
could somebody else post the original song back up?
that one link isn't working for me.
edit: nevermind, found it on youtube.

Oh, I can't. I can't do it. I've been taken over by the love! -T

I second that 8)
And that which must also be said is that Lemmings was my all-time favorite puzzle game back when i was a kid.

Very chill, even if the game is actually very dramatic considering that it often includes small dudes with green hair and blue robes falling against their fate, but I´m not gonna focus on that. This mix is happy, fun, like if it would be taken right out of "Björnes Magasin". Now probably all non-swedes wouldn´t understand that, but mustn´t this remind you of a childprogram when you was little, this mix sure makes me think of it.
But then maybe I also should be disappointed, we did also miss a potential remix from pretzel, but as long as we have this one, we sure can live with it. Dabombinc, we´re in your debt. Thanks alot dude.
