I entered the PRC as AlexSmith. I just want to say thank you to Rexy for hosting the competition. And thank you Bundeslang for the dedication to continue to host it. Although I haven't entered in recent years, I had a lot of fun making music for this competition and appreciate everyone who entered.

I honestly can't come up with any argument against "A wizard did it" so I suppose I'll have to let him off the hook.

Nice one DzejPi. Your remix is sick... had it stuck in my head all afternoon haha. Thanks very much for the comments Bundeslang. Yeah shame more people didn't vote. Your remix is awesome as well Mike. I like the way you changed up the drum beats with the tom tom stuff coming in. Very nice.

Amazing tune. But how are you supposed to fence with that sword? Look at the size of it.

Yeah fair point, should've done really. I'm really surprised no one else had a go remixing your selection. I thought my choice was going to get completely overlooked when I heard it, lol. Perfect VGM, really. Happy and full of nostalgia. Well, I felt nostalgic listening to it and I haven't even bought the game yet.

Bundeslang, just to let you know mate - you've got number 7 of your PRC instructions as "The winner of last round, Cash, can only take part by submitting a bonus mix." Got something going for this.

Congratulations Mike. Unlucky Planarian, better luck next time mate.

I actually invested quite a bit of time in a remix a week or two ago, but never quite finished it. Kicking myself to be honest... I was really inundated with inspiration from snowy's source choice. Oh well. I've cast my vote and eagerly await the old results.

Nice job guys and girls. I see I guessed your samples completely wrong then Kat, lol. Ah well. You got a really nice sound out of them anyway. If they were the old ones I can't wait to hear what you do with the new ones. Don't know if you're reading this but congrats Iosphere nonetheless.

Voted. As I'm on a roll, I'll leave a little comment for Mike as I'm listening to it now. Nice remix, man. I can hear the Supercoolmike signature sound coming through on those triplet kicks and spacey synths. Good drum beat, I like the placement of the second snare. Nice groove. Shame you didn't manage to submit this by the deadline mate, I really like it. Cool stuff.

Hopefully next time then mate. Hope you make a speedy recovery.

The new intro's cool, I like that. I'm not very knowledgeable about production, so I can't really comment on that side of things. But I think you've done a great job with the drums; they pop out at you. The new breaks are a fantastic addition. You've done a quality arrangement - it has a lot of substance. Nice build-up, saving the more complicated drum fills for the second half of the remix. Maybe you milk the climax a bit more by thinning out the instrumentation at the start? Or perhaps instead making even more of that exciting opening by throwing some of those busy drum breaks you've used later on, just to kick the whole thing off with a bang.

Haha, oh dear. I've never broken anything, but I imagine it flippin' hurts. That's the thing with reinforced glass doors - they always get the last laugh.

:/ What did you do to it HoboKa?

Cheers FnB.
