Huh. This is probably the least accessible of Mazedude's ReMixes. Though it's of a popular game - actually our first ReMix of Super Mario Kart - the genre is hard to pinpoint. Avant-garde hip-hop smooth jazz? Actually, it reminds me a lot of some of the stuff from the soundtrack to Beyond the Mind's Eye by Jan Hammer, primarily due to the usage of sax and muted-trumpet. I'm not often fond of muted trumpet, which can often just sound too darn nasal, but Miles Davis certainly pulls it off, and it works well here, along with some hybrid hip-hop and jazz drums, vibes, strings, and a really free-flow arrangement that must have taken quite awhile for Chris just to plan out. From the interesting electronic wasteland textures of the intro, to the jazzier mix that takes over from there, it really doesn't sound like anything else on the site, which is great. And it reminded me of both the Beyond the Mind's Eye and Gate to the Mind's Eye soundtracks (latter by Thomas Dolby) that I had a lot fun listening to back in the 90's. Recommended overall, highly recommended to those who are looking for something different and like jazz.
