Very Poor. You also use the samples ST-XX which is very old.

Some chords don't match other notes, but it's fine. I don't see why would others hate about the inaccuracy of the notes. The samples used here do fit the 80's vibe thing. They could have better quality, but they are good.

Good cover, but the old ST-XX samples kill me.

Like Saga Musix said, they should be laid to rest, but this cover is still good.

I personally don't have a problem with the ST-XX samples. I can see the appeal in using the actual samples that were in common use in '80s Amiga demos in a remix of a song that was also popular back in the 1980s.

That being said, the rhythm is boring and inaccurate, the recreation of the melodies are also terribly inaccurate and the creative liberties taken don't fill the void. The entire remix is too repetitive in general.
Also, the hi-hat sample used here should have been played at a higher pitch. That is definitely possible in .MOD format, and certainly was even in 1987.

Hey Yohann:
Why are you using those fucking old amiga samples? This is 2018, dude. not 1988 or something like that, like seriously.

In other words: Oh god! I want to die!

I don't know.
I rickrolled myself with a module.

I know there are some repititive comments down there but...what?
I liked the song.

I'm amazed with the old samples though.

You never gave me up. :D

Perhaps I haven't listened to enough modules but I think these murky old samples are still kind of cute. Especially the drum track makes me think of old German A500 cracktros. As for the song covered I've heard better attempts but it's listenable.

Poor cover, it's missing a lot of song elements from the original (percussion is wrong, no pads/strings), and the melodies are simply not the same (and the ones that are there are *way* too repetitive). Samples are outdated, they would be a lot better if there was any sort of technicality displayed in the tracking itself, but the most this module has are some Axx commands. Nothing about this module really interested me.

MOD-files can sometimes be hyper-amazing, but this one is pretty bland, sorry. Poor sample quality (I know that MOD has a poor sample rate, but I've heard clearer samples). I suggest that you try .it or .XM files. They give you much more stuff to use.

Not a stellar conversion, the percussion is more generic in this. Covering this song would have worked way better if a more modern format twas used (XM, for example), with newer samples as well.

Really poor conversion with wrong notes and a boring rhythm (just listen to the original and you will notice that it's a bit more than just kick-hat-hat-snare-hat-hat for three minutes straight).
And can we please put those 30+ year old samples to rest please?
