    Pretty darn good. The middle part was a little off-key to me, but the rest was pretty spiffy.

    Lord in heaven. You guys are all way too nice…

    Haunted.it is one of the least remixed songs in all of Jazz Jackrabbit history, so I loaded this track eager for a good, rousing rendition of the scary ghost song.

    Unfortunately, all I got was a recital by a couple of strings and the wind instrument section of the orchestra.

    That was really unfortunate, since this was a great opportunity to make a neglected song such as this one truly shine. Dr. Eggman’s overture (I call it that in keeping with the orchestral thema) only used a small handful of instruments, most of which sounded like the ones from the original song itself. I didn’t hear a particularly fulfilling bassline. The percussion section was interesting at first, but quickly grew dreary. The organ didn’t appear until a little over two minutes into the song, and by then it was the end. No ominous low notes came into play. The oboe/clarinet/whatever was done to death. The whole song seemed to be light and airy, which is the polar opposite of what a spooky, goosebump song should be.

    I was so disappointed, because this could’ve been such a great song. Instead, I was let down in a major way.

    Now, I really do hate to be so critical and negative towards anybody, so I’ll point out for your benefit that the song WAS pretty clean and didn’t have any (particularly) ugly samples. There were no detuned instruments, and certain channels didn’t drown others out in the process of playing. Believe it or not, it’s not easy to get channels to sound this good (take it from one who knows)!

    Sadly, clean channels just aren’t worth what they used to be.

    5.9, and I just can’t bring myself to recommend this for downloading. Sorry, man. I really hate to do this.

    But I am anyway.
