Oh, man sorry, but I don’t like this MIDI conversation…
Samples: Some is good selection, but more is bad. The main melody’s piano instrument is ok, and the string (aka. luvhorn in the original mod) is good. The bass instrument starts at 1:03 is terrible. The drums are ok. The sound at 1:08 is way different than the original one too.
Structure: It’s bad. And if it’s bad it makes the whole song wrong. Sorry, but there are various reasons I say that. Like the main melody. It’s fall out of the rhythm! The string sometimes need to be play longer width.
Overall: If you fix the things I had wroten, it will be a nice midi, but sorry now I can give 4.0 by these reasons. Just don’t give up!

I think there’s not problem with the sound. Use good midi canvas! =)(GS, GM or XG) All midi will be much better!

I hope it’s not a problem but I don’t really the TIMM tracks, but this one (like the Letni RMX) is really nice piece! =)
Samples: New beat samples + few extras to the melody + few new & good effects.
Beats: There’s a new beat, which is really nice, but the bass drum can be more sharper I think. There are very good beet changings, like at the starting of the track.
Melody: There’s the original “Dü-dü-dübdüb” sound which is good to keep the original feeling of the track. There are few new effects (we could hear them in AcId’s remixes), which I really like.
Overall: If you’re like the JJ music you must download it! =) Good track, new beat, metallic tech-effects, different track structure & piano like instument added to to the melody… I like it! =)[This review has been edited by TaZaR]

Ok, as I promised here’s my rating…
Sample Selecting: I think it’s good. Melody instrument is similar to the original, but it’s filled with more “electricity”, and whole song is more “Funky like”.
Beats: I’ve got a little problem here, I think the basic kick groove can be louder, or the snaredrum or clap can be more quiet or less sharp. But the full groove is nice I think.
Melody: The main melody is same as the original’s, but there are few new things, and you had extended the melody very well. Just, try make another changes to the melody next time I think, but it’s good. =)
Overall: It’s a good remix, with good samples, good ideas, but I think it need more things from that, (more good ideas, more new things.) like in the intro & the ending part. Good luck for the other remixes! =)

Good work!
At 00:26 there was a scream sound in the original, but now there’s nothing. I think the sample selecting is perfect (or really nice =)), and it’s a good work as tubelectric’s midi version. The guitars can be a little louder, but dunno… There are not real errors, just not same things after the original track, and it’s not problem. Ok it’s just a midi and it can’t good such good as S3Ms, but it’s still a good work, and for theres alls, I will give you 9. Another music for the pleasure of jjfangame makers. =) Hey, and what about your remixes? I would like to see another AcId or TIMM remixes, or they will be realese on the JJ music disc? What about them?[This review has been edited by TaZaR]

Hmm, it’s not a bad remix, but there aren’t too much things, just a pitch effect and some hit effects, but not bad. It’s better than the original I think, but the changes are too less for a good remix, it’s just a little edit, but no problem with it. I’ll give you 4 because the few changes…

Ok, interesting track, but it’s not a techno track, it’s like Euro-trance or Euro-dance.
Not bad, but not becouse you work, but because the original artist. Let’s see what you have made:
- Faster tempo
- Kick drum & claps & others for the 4/4 beat
- A bouncing bass line
Sorry, but this is not too much for a remix. Now this 5.5 is the rate of your work, not the original melodies and things. Yes, I think you need much work on a remix, if you would make another ones…

Another one of the best remixes in j2o! I love this one! =)
The selecting of the samples is very good, just like the effect in the begining of the track. You’ve missed the main error of jj remixers, this track is not repetative and it nice. The thing I don’t like it’s the ending part. Ok, it’s beautiful how the melody changes, but I feel it too empty. I think it’s need a string instrument or something to the ending part…
Ok, it’s a good track, and I love it & hope you will realese another ones!

Nice conversation, and good instrument using. It’s really similar than the original, and it’s a good thing, because it’s just a midi. Yes, I think the begining of this track is a little empty, but it’s by that, because the bass havent got too long sound, and I think this track would be better with a “longer” bass instrument, but it’s only stange in the first few seconds of the track. Oh, and the good thing is, some of the JJ Fan Game makers can easily use this midi in game maker.
Good work, AcId! =)

(I don’t understand, why everybody complaining about non j2b formats. “It can’t works with JJ2…” USE WINAMP! It works with midi and module files too, for listen.)

I like the idea, but I think, the track is not really good. The melody is ok, with the orbitus sounds, but the drums are terrible. The main problem is, there are just snare like drums, and they’re very similars, so the grooves are not good. The bass is the weakest part of this and the original track too, I think, but with the Airbase’s bass it’s really bad, I think, ‘cuz it’s not fits for the melody.
Summary: The idea is good, there are goodies, but some part of this stuff is need to fix…

Hmm… Not bad, I think. I like the most, of the ending part of this track, which is really nice with those “crasing” and “machine” sound effects. It’s like a techno track with breaks, and a short melody. So, I like how you use this effects in this track, there are many good ideas, but I think, you need to change more in a track, to make a better remix. Just, don’t give up! =)

J2b must be work, I think Blackraptor is right. I will not stop to upload in module format (now S3M), beacouse it’s good for JJ2, and you can listen it with winamp too.

I don’t understand.
There are 4 new instruments + I’ve changed all of the melody instruments, not only two drums… So before you tell opinion about it, please listen the original one. Thx.[This review has been edited by TaZaR]
