RA was a 2-minute demo of a 10-minute megamix of DJ Rap's Spiritual Aura (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v9uLmF_RARs).

Ah Rap, the female jungle DJ.

As for Eng2 - about the dubstep-y part:  is a direct quote about it from Josh Randal (it's not about the 9:00 downtempo, since it wasn't ready yet when I asked for his opinion) *chuckle chuckle* de gustibus, and all that...

Oh dear. -1 rep for robotkid too then

... and softcore porn model in her early days, too. Then she started mixing and done her jungle/DnB episode. And then, she switched to doing vocals, pop and dubstep.

"evolution of music"... It's kind of ironic when I think of it.

Also - I'm not a fan of dubstep myself, mind me, I mostly hate it myself, because of what became of the genre when it went mainstream (it was the same with punk, heavy metal, rap, liquid d'n'b - as it usually is) - but it's kind of funny how easy you can mix it with everything - rap, heavy metal, drum'n'bass & ambient included...

You've reminded me of this hardcore classic by Rap: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ffxom5oYFJk

Love that bass.

Edit: ok, I listened to Engineering 2 remix again. I redact my penalties. the dupstep-y bit isn't bad, and not even dubstep-y really. These days if I hear anything remotely dubstep-y I want to kill it with fire, so I was quick to judge.
I really like how you approached the track with such variety. Unfortunately it wouldn't be suitable for the game as the sense of technophobia in it is completely gone, but it wasn't your intention for it to be played in the game anyway.
Interesting remix.

I repacked the linked archive from deposit files to adhere to our mod format (archive root = game root) and attached it to the first post. The comparative examples are in the second post.
I also added you (Vaxquis) to the contributor group to make handling of attachments a bit easier. In case you would like to update this mod, note that attachments size is limited to 100MB (for contributors) for technical reasons. So for updating I suggest you proceed as before, ie link to an external download and I'll put up. It's quite cumbersome for me as well, so for minor changes I suggest to upload a smaller addon archive that can be merged into the main download after a while.

Thank you for your work.

@Join usss! : I've recently *almost* finished this tune - it's *another remix*, but the setting is completely different to what I was doing in terms of computer music - but at the same time a lot nearer to what I actually play live [funk/jazz].
