@@AlexNes Thank you. Did you as the Hungarian have the idea of remixing Gyöngyhajú lány?

[@AlexNes]

@@ukuskota4106 No :) I mean it is not a bad idea, but I have a hundred better ideas for covers not to mention original songs, so... :)

[@tomlawyer7942]

Man I love that people like you are doing amazing things with the dx franchise. The music is top notch in this game and you elevate this to a new level!

You may have spilled your drink but i have nerves of steele.

Large unbuttoned coat pockets... not advisable.

Eversince I found your remixes my relationship with Deus Ex has changed to an other level. Keep em coming my friend, your works are indeed art.

I enjoy in this mix that, while having its own unmistakable personality, it is true to the original melody. And let's not forget that the original Hong Kong theme derives heavily from the main title screen music. There is no shame (and all the glory) in taking a good music and building on top of it!

I love that I can hear the voice when I read the text. The voice acting in Deus Ex might not have been technically impressive but damn if it wasn't all iconic. Even random side characters lines were usually delivered in a memorable way.

[@twinkytwinklier4047]

I have to drop something… hehe… hold on…

[@Vonias]

@@twinkytwinklier4047 Get out! I got a bomb!

[@justinfeathers2941]

Great Job! Two of my favorite things. Deus Ex and synthwave.

[@flyst2150]

One of the best remixes out there, well done

[@kot7634]

"oh yes!"

[@jimmy8-bit991]

Dude, I randomly just stumbled upon your original remix for synapse from 4 years ago today during work in a KZbin mix of Deus ex music and I search it up to find a new one. Awesome work man.

[@chrispytel245]

These cover images are half of what make these covers great, adds to the overall appeal quite a bit. Keep it up!

[@roberthunter6122]

God, you never cease to amaze with these amazing covers!

[@AtheneEM]

Your covers are great!

[@earthmanbrick]

Brilliant work, man. Not heard the original tune but this one is dope. Keep up the good work, dude

[@Vonias]

Dang... Super slick. Really enjoyed this.

[@Nordischsound]

Love the drumworks with here E-Toms !

[@BreakfastInBackstage]

I prefer the first version, despite the mix errors mentioned in the description. I find the arrangement more epic.

[@Crimson71772]

Amazing as always

[@awcmon123]

Great cover image! Is there somewhere we could get the full-size?

[@AlexNes]

Here it is: imgur.com/a/yDQlJMR when I uploaded the video Imgur had a problem so couldnt upload then I said screw that, nobody cares anyway. I was proven wrong :D

[@thespacemanfil]

Any possibility of these coming to spotify?

[@AlexNes]

Unfortunately not. You cannot just "upload" to Spotify, you need a publisher. And they all charge extra for the handling of covers, something I'd like to avoid :D

[@thespacemanfil]

Amazing remixes from you, a shame they don't get many views. There's got to be more deus ex fans in existence, right?????

[@lorenzrosenthal119]

"what a shame!"

[@bobpage6597]

Oh yes, most certainly!!

[@bogart6648]

Really nice.

[@Escape_From_Miami]

Gotta do the Synapse combat theme next, such a banger

[@pewneosoby2108]

Waiting for Enemy Within, NYC Club and main theme!

[@AlexNes]

Sir, your wait on one of those is over :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/f4u1ZWeQeb6He7M

Looks like we still have some weird notes in a bass track here ;)

Awesome.

Back in the day, when there had to be amazing music in games to immerse you because the graphics werent quite there yet... It works more to immerse than amazing graphics. Take Tenchu 1 for example... That ost had no buisness being so good. And the grapics were laughable, but playing it, i felt like a real ninja as a kid.

[@AlexNes]

This is a sound (no pun intended) hypothesis... though I'd also like to think that artists had more control over the music they composed. I imagine Alex Brandon was just being told "dude make some good tunes" and he did his best. Same thing with modern games - Mick Gordon had full creative freedom on Doom in the beginning and the dude did god's work until they started micromanaging him. For most games I think execs say "make us music that just blends into the background and has that cinematic epic feel you know, don't overdo it as it might clash with our vision for the game" - which leads to the generic crap most games have.

[@lordjackson]

Szerintem jobb az elso remixed, mar csak a nyugodtabb intro miatt. Az Area 51bol csinalhatnal egy remixet? koszi.

[@snake21321]

third one to watch, nice one

[@guidedexplosiveprojectileg9943]

100 times better than the original (cover and music)

If you die, my plans will fail. Locate Tracer Tong. ___Daedalus from deus ex.
