I like all of them except Hyperspace and Spathi.

The Spathi music sounds too fast and busy. The orginal made me think of the Spathi as wacky but when I hear the remix I think hyperactive.

Well, I thought the Spathi remix was great. Some of the remixes are kinda blah, but I won't mind unless they do something stupid like make the Ur-Quan theme another trance track. That's where I throw a tantrum.

Good job, guys.

Hyperactive?

I tend to dislike the Spathi music too.  The background cartoony sounds are awfully chaotic, and tend to drown out the melody.  To my ears, it just sounds kind of discordant, and that just doesn't fit my tastes, or my impression of the spathi.  They aren't chaotic or scattered - they're actually quite well organized.  Well organized for the sole purpose of running away, yes, but definitely ordered.

But, hey, different strokes for different folks.

I already made a post on this, and sorry if it offended anyone, but sorry riku, i can't listen to the new hyperspace theme in the game.. it totally ruined the feeling i had of the game while i was a kid.  You are an amazing composer, but i think it is safe to say that many fans wanted something closer to the origional.

I was expecting something upbeat and close to the origional, heck i listen to the 3D0 remix while i work out (call me obsessed, ok?)  but i feel like i am going to fall asleep instead of dance to the music in my seat Sad

Not to be unfriendly, but you could have saved yourself a lot of grief  by checkign the FAQ before posting ,and realising that you can use ANY music in the game, original, remix, New Kids On The Block. It's just a matter of work.

As for how it's done, I think either the Technical FAQ or the files that arrive with the  game give instructions. Or do they? Might want to add that otherwise.

Also, there is an older HyperSpace remix, Marc Riveras Electroblast Remix which is truer to the original tone, yet "newer and fresher" so to speak. Again, I'm too lazy to find a link for you, but it ought to be somewhere on PONAF, otherwise I'll happily mail it to you.

Well, it's late so night.

Heh. You probably mean my (Mark Vera) remix. So old, and I hear how the mixing isn't good. anyway.. Smiley "Marc Riveras" is the most weird version of "Mark Vera" I've ever heard.   Cheesy

Ooops  Embarrassed  Tghat's what I get for writing when I should be sleeping. Indeed, Mark Veras mix was the one I was referring to.
