The featured track from Ruslan Bozhok's Dreams Of The Electronic Mind is "Synthesized Ghost Of 80's," which is a mid tempo techno with strong thematic lines, and the driving pulse of 16th note arpeggiated bass and classics 80's synth sounds. The piece is built around solid chord changes from F minor to B flat minor, and then it resolves from E flat minor C, which is a set up for great melodic writing. The drum beat keeps the song driving along for an enjoyable song that fits this style well. Synth-Dimension shows not only a love for the fun of 80's Electronica, but solid themes and variations of classical music, which give this instrumental track strong harmonic substance. It will be very appealing to those who enjoy good composition with a groove.

somewhat of a dedicated effort overall. cant get into the main melody though, which sounds like a lesser good melody by laserdance, bit similar yet simpler as "shotgun". not my preferred 80´s mood, but snatched to give another listen.

who writes a review by explaining the chord progression?
it's an alright tune, but if you're going to be making 80's inspired music, why don't you update the production? nothing really grabbed me about it. you can pay homage to the sounds without relying on dated production techniques.
also, what's a free download worth if it's only 128 kbps? :/

What i get from the review is that it's mainly focussed on copying the technique of the 80's synth music sound, rather than actually putting a song there which gives that 80's synth music feeling as well as 'paying homage to it'. And yeah, who the hell reviews a song like that anyway, it's a review worth an entire album, not one track.
Didn't think the song was bad at all, just that it didn't grab me enough to download it and manually listen to it again.
