This is my second remix from the soundtrack to Spider-Man and the X-Men: Arcade's Revenge, and while every piece of music composed for that game is absolutely brilliant, there is no question that Gambit's stage theme is the most popular of all the tracks.

My approach to this remix can be summed up with a single word: "big." I wanted the sound to be big, and the arrangement to feel big, so the drums and synths are fat, the guitars distorted, and the organ blazing. This is the second iteration of my remix, as I was ultimately unsatisfied with my first take. The changes were minimal, but important enough to me that I had to make them.

- The guitar riff at 1:22 was originally recorded in Drop D. I rerecorded it in Drop C

- Added a new guitar solo starting at 2:07

- Remastered the mix to increase both the treble and the bass

- Sped up the tempo by 1%
