Donkey Kong Country 2 'Ghost of St. Helens'
Ahh, a Peeples tune. Scott does some excellent work, and this is no exception. This mix is a sort of creepy tune with distant, echoed samples, and strings in the background. About half way through the mix, there is a part that's less creepy, almost happy sounding, and then it goes back to creepy with some interesting flute samples. Great work here. I really like this track.

Heres another reason to get every Peeples song =D. It starts with a dark ambient feel, then the Peeples beat kicks in and you get taken away...o ya. This is how i think the lava stage music shoudl ahve really sounded, with that optimistic feel, instead of its...lets go kill some badguys for the hell of it feel, wich even this songs pokes at in the middle. Nice contrast and synths. I give it a 10/10, highly recommended.

this mix greatly outdoes the original. it starts off battle-like much in the same manner before facing the boss, a pleasant drum'n'bass loop enters, and then my two favorite parts: at 1:26 the transition's especially sweet since it clues you in on what's coming. then at 1:50.. BAM! euphoric bliss

Smooth if unexpected transition there. Nice samples, synth, whatever you use, in this mix. Professional. Great percussion, they keep the listener's rythmn in the right place (with some help from the bass) without being so heavy as to detract from other parts, have enough variation (as well as not being too conspicuous) to keep me from saying my favorite criticism, "too repetitive". Ending feels kinda weak, I'd like it if it looped back on itself smoothly, but not a big deal.

This is good stuff, very good. Quality showing throughout. Like the opening, very spooky though the transition was very nicely done and the percussion involved is totally awesome, perhaps not just the variety but the timing of everything for me was perfectly correct. I don't think ive heard many ReMix's as good'a quality overall than this and although this is not my fave ReMix or my fave DKC ReMix this is excellent and Peeples has shown that he can really produce a mix worthy of being one of the very best in OCR and that is how much i appreciate this ReMix.

Chilly. And being that, it makes this a cool remix! An awesome rendition of the Lava level, which happened to be my second favorite besides the Brambles level. Got a lot of relaxing themes, flutey stuff, bass things, etc. Not thinking too much right now, as it's nearly midnight here. Loved this one, and I think I'll listen to it tonight as I drift off.

You can't beat DKC music(or DKC2 music, they're one-n-the same). No sir, and this mix just adds to the awesome-nicity of the game. I adore the simplicity of this remix. It's like cottoncandy for the soul, baby! Absolutely scrumptious track *feels ashamed for corny review*

Oh, yes!! The Lava Stage!!
When I heard this remix, I remembered original music. This music was, for me, Dixie and Diddy in top of a flying balloon. I heard this music in 1996 for the first time. Something was new. I had passed of the first boss who was a giant bird with pirate hat.After that I found a place with an uncommon melody. THE LAVA´S STAGE MELODY! Good Work, Peeples!!!!

It's seems as though I'm the only one so far to say this, but I didn't really enjoy it that much.
Don't get me wrong, the original was a great tune that eased you nicely into the second world, but at places the music goes a little out of tune, and the creepy notes at the begining and end of the remix don't work too well. Sorry, but this is at maximum an average remix. If you really (and I repeat: really) loved the original, then you might find some enjoyment from this. For me though, it isn't much fun. 5/10
