What did you think? Post your opinion of this ReMix.

This track is all about the textures, and it's really cool to hear how they all fit in. Definitely check this one with headphones, it's way cooler!

i'd suggest maybe even that people should pump up the volume and dance dance when that low brass comes in.

It brought a lot of memories on this hard level/part of the game I loved the background and the intruments were very well done:-o

[Crulex]

Cool. I always liked Protricity's ReMix, but this takes it in a pretty cool direction. Jazzy and more "Jungley". Is it wrong for me to say that some parts remind me of those "Local on the 8's" themes on the Weather Channel, but in a good way? It's soothing and relaxing, I love it. Kinda funny how this theme annoyed me to no end when I tried to get through the Lost World, but this is so chill.

love this mix. the hand percussion is just sick <3

[ChaosPlayer]

This sound track is pretty much recomended for anyone that loves mellow-jive like music. Very funky and classic, almost as if I am at a coffee place with a live performance.

A+ must listen. This is perfect for my study breaks, hahaha

[animatedjay]

Pretty good. Just a tad busy with the percussive bongo hits in the background, but done really well.

[Mtlbro]

Way to go! sweet I love the layers but it doesn't sound too "busy"

Takes me back

[Anorax]

Perfect.

Not only does it have a good ambience, but it is also well-balanced.

The ambient soundscape, instrumentation, and arrangement of this mix all work together to create strong imagery. When the tone of the mix changes around 2:00 to something much more chill, the solos introduced are really strong (esp the flute solo around 3:00). Very good mix!

While I don't feel like this is quite as standout as Joshua's other track on Serious Monkey Business, I still feel like it's one of the best songs on the album. That should say something about his mixing ability

The source is treated with a lot of delicate care, keeping that jungle atmosphere with ethnic flutes and some brilliantly-sequenced percussion, but managing to take it to a whole new level with the jazz flair you injected in, especially toward the end.

Pretty much flawless here. Love it

[Bahamut]

I love this track a lot - personally, I feel like it was Josh's better effort on Serious Monkey Business, but they're both excellent tracks. This take showcases a bit of an ethnic flair combined with Joshua's trademark funk later on. The mesh of styles works to great effect here - the execution is strong.

For me, this was a highlight of SMB and still enthralls to this day.

Man, this is cool. It has hints of Phantasy Star Online in the harmonies, and the percussion work is so slick.
