Tetris Theme Remix

Original Song by: I dunno
Remix by: Basshunter

WARNING: Bad Language (at the end)!


This song receives a rating of Not Bad.

It lost points in my book because of the cursing at the end, but this song takes an old classic video game song and makes it AWESOME.

It starts out teasing you with the familiarity, then it takes the whole song and mixes it up. then it goes into phase 2, around 1:20 where it goes into uber rave mode. badass!

and then keychange and uber rave mode part 2 around 2:30, and again 10 seconds later, the song that keeps on giving. great for parties. i need to find a place to download this song, if i find out i will share it with you.

Adagio For Strings Remix

Original Song by: Unknown (by me, that is)
Remix by: DJ Tiesto


This song is Truly HNL Quality. Adagio for strings is one of my favorite songs of all time to begin with, but this remix blows it out of the water. I was speechless while listening to this, it is truly astounding. 

I first heard Adagio for strings as part of the Homeworld Soundtrack by sierra studios (Homeworld was the 1999 game of the year for 3D real time strategy games). I had heard DJ Tiesto before, but i can't remember where i heard it, so i was looking him up on youtube and i found this video.

Words cannot describe the awesome of this song. I remember being impressed enough with DJ Tiesto to buy a CD, so now i'm a huge fan.

So Watch the youtube, and enjoy.

Hungarian Dance Remix

Original Song by: Johannes Brahms
Remix by: Pompon Finkelstein and Christophe Coudrec



This is a darn good song! And its not just an amateur opinion. I've been listening to techno and being judgemental about it for years and this is some good stuff. If i knew where to download this, i totally would. 

Basic Review done, now i get to go into its different flavors.

Classical Music as a genre has a very distinct sound. the first thing Finklestein and Coudrec did RIGHT was keeping the original sound quality of the music itself.

The intro maintains that classical sound quality, you know its going to be classical, but its electronified by cutting it up in that manner. It gives it an interesting modern twist. 

Unfortunately, between interesting parts, it has a subtle electronic background so it gets kind of boring, until about 1 minute when it does the doppler effect kind of thing, which i find really cool. 

going into the second section (after 1 minute), it does essentially the same thing, but for the first part i was just in a daze because it sounded cool, and i start appreciating the subtle electronic background. 

but after THAT it goes onto a quieter phase of the song (around 1:50), where the electronic background becomes more pronounced and it has more of an effect, and is more pronounced going into the 2:20 to the end.

Overall, the song is really cool, more positives than negatives. The Best part was the beginning, with the techno intro.

Whats better than a really cool techno song?

A really cool techno song...
set to ROBOTS!

Anyway, this song gets a rating of "Not bad"

Just for future reference, i should post my scale here.

Epic Fail
Lame
Ok
cool
Not Bad
Kickass!
HNL!
