Here it is - the last ReMix of the year 2000. I'd like to dedicate this ReMix to Stanley Kubrick, who directed the film 2001 and sadly never got to see its corresponding year. He was a bleak genius with a mind of pure artistry. It has been a sincere pleasure running this site, receiving SO MANY great + different ReMixes from people all over, and keeping the memory and the music of gaming alive. I thank all of you and look forward to another 365 days of tunage. So, in essence, to summarize: HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
The source is classic Kondo, which gives me immense joy. Couple that with this superfun take on it, and it results in one of my favourite mixes. I've listened to this many a time, and still find the urge to punish my ears again and again. My eardrums are completely caloused thanks to this mix. Thanks pretzel. Here's to premature deafness.

ok, I was a fool and listened with headphones, as that is all I have, and my life as I know it is over. ;_;
The modulation on the lead synth itself was cool and well done, but those frequencies need to be curbstomped before they claim another innocent victim. :-(
Otherwise a pretty happy song.

I can remember I didn't listen to it much back then, but nowadays I do. This song makes me moving, whistling and singing and Im not even joking. For example, Im listening to the song at this very moment while writing this and I often just hit wrong letters! Seriously, it's amazing!
This song makes you addicted to it.

How elastic.

First time I listened to this, I had headphones on, and my ears split. XD But now I'm used to it. Good thing or bad thing? I dunno. No high-pitched squealing is going to stop me from listening to this mix, though. It's awesome, and I agree with everyone else--definitely a fun song. Great job!

And yes, it is a tad painful with headphones, and results in people giving me strange stares (I have yet to see it, but I know they must, I know they must!); but still, this is one of [i]the most fun[/i] songs available on this site.
It's this fascinating attitude that the song takes, that makes it one of the few songs that I regularly use to try to explain to friends and family why I enjoy this site so much.
David, thank you for the wonderful music!

"But can djpretzel?" Lol. Unhappyly, I only have headphones now. But I appreciate this work. Because I love the original song. Nice work, djpretzel! 2001 elastic new year? No! 2005 elastic new year! :)

Great mix, very flavourful. I'm suprised I didn't hang on to it at first.
Yummy, thanks DJP.

Solid overall, some nice, bright instruments (perhaps too bright in some cases). 8/10. not much to say about it.

Well, I've listened to this mix a ton, and I can't stop, really. It's so fun and bouncy. Nice bass in there, a fun beat to go along with it, and some classic video game tunage. Now you can't go wrong with that. :D
