Yesterday I made a remark on the bassline differing from the original on one specific note (I know you're aware of what note)... However, the more I listen to your cover, I realize that it's a deliberate change - and it fits this version well, though I'm not sure I would have made it. :-)

Anyway, you know what I mean!

Beautiful strong updated version my friend! I like the Isaac Hayes' sample from the original movie. Still remains one of Carpenter's best soundtracks I think.

Great ;)

Nice work man. Good version, a bit more fleshed out than the original - in a very cool way. Keep it coming.

I've logged in just to comment on how awesome this is, great version I must say; by the way would you rate the microKorg as a good synthesizer and what software do you use within your music lab?

[conexant51]

Did you do this working off sheets, or did you do it by ear? If the latter, I have to say you did very very well! I have only one bassline correction to make, the rest is perfect from what I remember (I have audiographic memory [or whatever you call it, when it's sound, not visual input we're talking about]). Reply for that >>single<< correction.
