I personally liked the remix of galvanize the best, it was still amateur at best but a fine remix just the same though lacking in some quality. I agree with some of you that the breakbeat in the marvo ging remix was excellent...it at least made the track bearable to listen to. The sampling of smashing pumpkins and beatles lyrics for the surfae to air remix was clever but not really too well done, absolutley hated the backing vocals on this track... sounds like somehting from a bad disney soundtrack.

The "Come Inside" remix is definitely worth a listen in my opinion.

The other tracks sound like they've been done in a hurry (which I think they were).

I listened to Flip the Switch for the first (and last) time today. This obviously wasn't made with chem listeners in mind, in fact, I'd argue it wasn't made with any listeners in mind. I will give some props to the the of Close Your Eyes remix, which sounds like it could've been good if they didn't put such crappy synths in it, the drums are spaz-tastic.

I'll admit quite a few of these versions are not that great... with quite a few glaring errors... that being said... it's nice to see diff people's interpretations of music... in terms of quality, nothing will even come close to what the Chems can create.



Hey it's free..... for those that mock it let's see what you can do in terms of rmxing these tunes.



:D
