LAST NINJA 2, CENTRAL PARK (1988) - C64 REMIX [LukHash]

[@GuitarDad76]

Amazing, thanks for the awesome remix. IMO both Central Park tracks are the pinnacle of C64 music ❤

[@rolling-roadkill]

I honestly always expect to be disappointed whenever i listen to a remix of this tune since the original is close to perfection. This remix though.... Holy shit on a stick!! Absolutely pure awesomeness. I loved it from start to finish.

[@MaverickM1]

And this is a phenomena called “The Lukhash awesomeness”.

[@TamasKalman]

this is one of the best thing happened in 2019.

[@TobiasSchindegger]

Correct answer👍🤓

[@hotomatoe664]

And all the way into the entire 2020 :)

[@AlexanderWilithinIII]

This is remixing perfection, taking all the aspects of the original and just making them _better_ . It's actually incredible. The intro is unreal.

[@jakospence]

This has been playing for the past 90 mins on WPKN 89.5 Bridgeport, CT and has Shazam (which I just noticed is now called ‘Encore’) completely stumped, so I went to the station’s website because I needed to know what it was. I’m impressed.

[@test9820]

@LukHash why is this superb remix not on Spotify?

[@fatihyilmaz-Gtr]

YES!!!!

[@birchna]

the gold standard of remixes, superb!

[@VilleHelin]

Jesus Sir LukHash, please make more C64 remixes! You are the King!

[@SOULDEZIGNER]

I have to admit..... I don't like any remixes of Matt Gray's flawless work, because it's pure perfection from birth.....but this one...HOLY HELL PERFECTION at it's FINEST

[@CreepyCrawlerDK]

I wonder what the man himself (Matt Gray) would say about this.. :D I'm not fond of MG's remixes either, cause I love the guy to death, but LukHash is AWESOMESAUCE too! :D 'Nuff said.

[@SOULDEZIGNER]

@@CreepyCrawlerDK 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@JanVaran]

System 3 did release the game on the C64 with remixed music..

[@SOULDEZIGNER]

@@JanVaran If you're talking about "Ninja Remix", the soundtrack is crap compared to the original games. I still like it though, but my point is still valid. Ninja Remix failed in every way. It looked worse (Head-up display) and the music was no match, compared to the original soundtrack. Reyn Ouwehand and Anthony Lees still made good music, don't get me wrong here. Last Ninja Remix on the amiga (Jochen Hippel), had better music, but the original games had THE BEST music, ever made on a c64. Ben Daglish and Anthony Lees did a flawless job "the last ninja" Matt Gray did a flawless job with the sequel "the last ninja 2".

[@theohughes74]

When I make music and people hear it they're like, "Wow, that's awesome!", then I hear stuff like this and I'm like, no, no it's not, this is awesome. Thanks for keeping me humble!

[@iwontreplybacklol7481]

Umm, this is a remix. All the themes and stuff are not original. Pretty much anyone with a DAW and some lessons can make this.

[@DavidKristoffersson]

Most remixes of everything are kind of boring. This one though... This is stellar.

[@RAVELL.VIRKOWSKI]

oooooo!! yeeeeaaaaah (c64) generation! cheers!

[@Jesterzero138]

This is really good. The original is one of my favorite compositions ever, and this really does it justice

[@AntonioPetrelli]

WHOA! I have your Giana Sisters remix as a ringtone, now I suppose I have to change it...

[@verficationaccount]

Great remix - and great interactive graphics!

[@SamBKearns]

Still on high rotation in 2024.

[@mikkdc]

HOLY SHIT! The way that melody kicks in at 0:53 gave me chills. I WAS NOT READY! Awesome work.

[@playnochat]

How many central park remixes are out there? I have lost count. It doesn't matter. There can't be never too much. The last ninja 2 was the absolute peak of C64 brilliance and the last ninja trilogy is the reason why I still own C64. Original Cassette versions of course, because you get loading musics and game over only restarts the same level.

[@fblthpthblfp79]

I remember trying to make a version of this over a decade ago and the sounds I wanted were impossible to produce with any method I tried. Even today the SID is still a marvel.

[@junipergardner3365]

Probably the best version I've heard of this track stellar job

[@FlemmingNLarsen]

1:25 gives me the chills. Last Ninja 2, Central Park is a classic. Keep up the good work LukHash. Your music is truely amazing, and I always look forward to hearing and see new productions from you.

[@stingerhu]

LukHash, a big salute for the great year closure. Excellent, as always ;-)

[@ForgottenSoul]

4:50 ❤️

[@andrewsmail8307]

Banging track, love the "eyequaliser" effect rofl; very "smartastic"

[@ginkarasu]

Hell yeah, One of my all time favourite game trilogy. Which desperately needs a HD remake! I was hoping you do a Last Ninja tune for years. And you did not disappoint! Thanks for sharing.

[@matthiasbohme3746]

Unglaublich toll. In den Augen, dieser Equalizer. Und die Blitze. Danke! Na das ist ja schön. 🦞 ich verteile emotincons heute. 🍀

Just stumpled upon this... This might be the best version I have ever heard! (next to the ingame music) Goose bumps...

One of my favourite themes from the C64. What an amazing remix, this is going straight onto my favourites list. Cheers :D

[@MegaCygnusX1]

Genuinely amazing, it actually Sound like Matt Gray meets Jan Hammer. Outstanding.

[@noopsit4802]

This is probably one of the best computer game soundtrack ever

[@fessty]

I never liked Lukash. Always thought .it was a bit blowing smoke...' but that cover ..... respect! He understands the original and love it, it's obvious. The best cover of central park, by far.

[@TintoHorizon]

Zajebiste, Matt Gray by się rozpłakał ze wzruszenia.

[@olabrandt3394]

One of the best remixes to date of this wonderful song!! Great work!

[@fsddevelopment4513]

Holy hell! This just played automatically. Just blew my ears off with gorgeous thumping, grungy base.

[@VilleHelin]

I have to admit that initially I found this remix boring, but then I bought new speakers and really good headphones - now I can hear the magic in this remix! Didn't work with my 50 dollar speakers at all. :)

[@TargetRenegade]

A Ninja 3 Intro remix in this style would be f**cking glorious!!
