Okay, no matter who you are and where you live, Instant Remedy OWNZ you . . consistently great work from these guys, with more wonderful tunes available at C64AUDIO.COM . . Outrun had some cool tunage, and also allowed you to pick your song, giving you control over your "car radio" in a pretty inventive fashion . . this update puts a decidedly La Bouche touch on the theme . . I keep waiting for someone to say "Be My Lover" "Tonight is the night" or "Sweet Dreams" . . enjoy!

This song is going to be stuck in my head for quite some time.

One of the best OCRemixes. It still holds up so well. It's a perfect tribute to the game, and it makes you feel like you are actually in that red car driving around the beach with the wind in your hair.

A seriously old school mix that holds up really well over 1500 mixes later. The blend of 8 bit synths and more modern ones works very well, and the minimal (and tasteful!) use of car zooming makes things extra nice. The song is constantly evolving, and isn't content to simply repeat itself.
Well played, Sir. Well played.

Again, this is another game I have unfortunately not played, but it's still a very nice mix. Can't trump da classic stylez.

Aye, this feels so old school. Great melody. Almost like the bastard child of some random trance and a C64.

Not much to say except I LOVE THIS!
It's awesome

Oh MAN! Outta all the "Out Run" songs, this HAS to be the coolest! THIS HAS GOTTA BE BETTER THAN ANY OTHER REMIX ON THIS SITE, MAN... I could imagine the length of driving with this bad boy in my CD player crankin out the hot music. And this totally is R-O-C-K-I-N! Wheh! Did I mention "WOW!"?

I like this tune but i'm not sure if it is as good as it could be. I remember Outrun having some great music and there certainly needs to be more remixes for this game. This song is good though and it makes my car CD playlist, now all i have to do is pretend my purgeot is a testarossa convertable and i'm driving along a beach road rather down the M62 on a rainy overcast day and I'm set.

Pure genius to tackle this song for a ReMix . . . I've been humming this song since the game came out for the Master System. I'm new to this site, but I had to say something about this song. It's amazing how many memories come floating to the surface when you hear this music - great job . . .

I've heard some music samples with that NES feel to them, trying to capture the old school NES sound quality and make a pleasing, intricate piece of music at the same time. This is almost a paradox -- imitating a very elementary music output system and attempting to make it deep and complex. With some, the final result sounds like a monkey trapped in a prison cell with a 1990 Yamaha, pounding away at the poor keys over and over again in a sharp and piercing synth. Instant Remedy has not only evaded this pitfall, but has managed to take the form to an entirely new and outstanding level. His samples are full and satisfying, but have that crisp NES synth feel to them, and his composition, while following the original, has been layered with counter-melodies and riffs that I notice anew each time I play it through my headphones. Amazing work.

Out Run for Sega Master system was one of my first games i ever owned. All i can say about this mix is thank you for making it! Great job! 8.5/10

This guy has talent. It's a fact.
I don't know what to say. This mix is great.
Listen to it, and cry. What you cry about is up to you to decide.
9/10

Outrun 'Instant'
For once the C64 music matches the other versions of the same game! Instant Remedy has taken the "Magical Sound Shower" music selection and upgraded to sound like the Miami Sound Machine or something similar. At points it does have a little bit of that NES style sound quality to it, but it's mixed in with the good stuff and works pretty well. If you like Out Run music, download this. If you don't like Out Run music, shoot yourself.
