Extended dance mixage from Link's first gameboy outing, courtesy Ryu7x. Nothing too surprising here - construction is solid, elements well-panned, drums direct and emphasizing a clap sound where a snare might usually be. I think what's coolest here is how well the original works in being adapted to dancish techno - this ain't your usual electronica chord progression, nor are the harmonies typical techno fare, and yet - especially with the hyper-jumpy harp pattern that filters out beautifully as the piece concludes - everything "clicks" quite naturally. Kudos to Ryu7x equally for putting together a strong techno track and hearing how the piece could be adapted as such in the first place. Of the judges' criticisms, the noted lack of variation and more imagination on the drums was what I'd concur with, foremost. While I think, with Ryu7x's skills, this could have offered a bit more in certain areas, I'm glad someone covered the track and covered it as well as he has. It's not your everyday dance mix and is definitely worth checking out on those grounds alone.
