Why is it so fucking difficult for people to post working links?

In truth, nobody would mind if there wasn't a weeks-long backlog in the judging forum (unless that's changed now?).

Cool it. ~ Emu

I'm pretty sure the otherworld reference is intentional.

No thanks for the links

Very nice remix. I definitely hear Final Fantasy X in this, in fact several parts could pass for a rather original FFX remix

Might help if you pasted the link correctly.

Beginning is definitely Lava Reef zone.

Very nice. Parts of it also seem heavily inspired by Time's Scar from Chrono Cross - one of the backing melodies matches very closely, and I don't remember it being there in the original.

Providing a working link might be a good start...

Sounds great so far. Hm...the part beginning at 0:48 reminds me a lot of the introduction stage from Megaman Zero 2. Probably just a coincidence.

I'm not just talking about OCRemixes. Ever checked out Newgrounds or Youtube?

Nice remix, but I'm not a fan of the random key change at 1:21. You're far from the only person to do this - it's a trick that been done to death by popular music, but IMO it's a very bad example to follow. They usually do it to hide the fact that they're repeating lyrics, but only succeed because they create an even more jarring disconnect in the music which distracts listeners away from the lyrics. It's the musical equivalent of covering up a bad odor with an even stronger one.

Very nice, except for a wrong note at 0:36-0:37 and 0:47. You got the same part exactly right at 0:22, so I'm not sure what happened. But don't let that discourage you. You're one of the relatively few remixers who really dares to experiment with the source and really make it into your own thing.

Awesome, but not particularly original.
