Wow, it's actually pretty good.

That's quite good, and finally an original take on the song which at the same time actually stays truthful to the original. (though it cuts short at 0:55, that's supposed to happen?)
You may want to re-encode it though. Especially around the xylophone parts the song clips noticeably.

Good job, keep it up!

Yeah I noticed it right after I released it and I played it back about 5 times. It hadn't been mixed at all though so that's probably why the song clips alot. But I'm glad you liked it :) It was just something that I wanted to do since I was doing a beat for another song and then when I altered it a bit, it sounded alot like the Jazz jACKRbbit first level beat. So I just finished it. About the 55sec part, Where did it cut? At the part where the beat alone was playing or in between the song? Cause the song is an endless loop so if you loop it, it should give you the way it sounded back then lol.

Ignore the "cutting", turned out to be a bad download. ;)
Though if the song is supposed to enlessly loop, cut a few milliseconds of the end of it, as it's not a perfect loop just yet. :P

Just being a nitpicky, you don't HAVE to, you know?

That's because it's in MP3. If I had it in WAV then it would be perfect. MP3 files alwayz give you some kind of silence delay right at the end of the file. I dont know why though. But if I were to but it in WAV, then the file would be much bigger of course, around the 16Mb size. lol No problem about the nit pickys lol, I'm a producer so I have to know these things lol.

Hey, it's nice... good flow. Thumbs up. =3
(Only those weird synthy tunes you probably got from the original could be changed into something less scratchy...)

Winamp has a feature in newer versions (or is it my sound card or winxp?) that makes the track a short fade out when you quit or change track.

Hmm. Could have diverged a little more from the original, but that's just me. Spiffy. Me likes.

*plug* Well, we don't like MP3's anyway. Use OGG instead, this will also allow you to get rid of that "delay" at the end of the file and give you a perfectly looping tune.
And you can get smaller filesizes than MP3 at the same (audible) quality. ;)

And there's no excuse not to use OGG anymore, it's supported by most platforms and players, even WinAmp has standard support for it! */plug*

OK, you do, but don't speak for me. The only problem with MP3's is that you can't use them in JJ2, but same goes to OGG's. ^_-

I have just listened to it. Sounds way cool! Kinda reminds me "Green Begginings" (Green Hills Zone remix) by Jaxx. Ohhh yeah!
