This is a cool, light-footed take on the fantastic original, and it fits very well, yet is surprising. I like the combination of chip-style instruments, particularly the drums with the rest of the instrumentation, it's very effective and fun. Some dissonance that didn't work at 2:05, the final guitar note feels very unresolved and sorely sticks out. The pacing is a little steady for the length perhaps, but I enjoy the duration, and I liked the ending to wrap things up.

Bingo! The remixer took a main theme (little debate this is a top-5 well known theme from the game) and took it in a direction I did not expect. While that's noteworthy, you still have to deliver, and the remix really does, with the mixing of chiptune (listen to 2:45-3:10 or so!) and more traditional elements creating an odd but ultimately warm and open take on a nice source. The mix takes a bit to gather some personalization but really does in the back half. Overall, very nice work!

Highly recommended. An excellent unique remix of a great song.

I absolutely LOVE this one. There's something so emotional to it, and it's also simply fun. The wife and I give this one 'repeat attention' often, and always enjoy it as much as we did upon hearing it for the first time.
