Not a lot of time for this write-up, unfortunately - got back from a three-day, no-Internet trip this afternoon and have been busy catching up. This is some high-energy, straightforward, groove-based mixage in the techno/dance genre from GY off the Streets of Rage 2 OST. This is going out on a limb a bit, but this still retains many of the touches that make it "Yuzo Koshiro-esque" and might possibly be what the original would have sounded like in redbook instead of the Genesis' FM chip. There's the cheesy-but-fun vocal FX, the moving patterns including intro chords and the undulating sub-synth bass, as well as analog percussive fx and lots of synth. Stays pretty true to the original in other regards, but expands upon some of the ideas and adds some flava to the beat and some interesting ritard to the ending (would have left off the very last note, personally) - in other words, not Gecko's most daring piece, and not a concept piece like GY's previous Sor2 'SID of Rage' ReMix, which paired the C64's SID with Yuzo's tunes, this is just a good ole fashioned fun-lovin' unpretentious techno arrangement. Good, solid, danceable, and retains the "essence of Yuzo" in all the important ways.
