Ahh man you make me wanna boot up cave story again.
Such an addictive and original lil game....

As far as the remix goes, this is incredibly calming stuff. something of a melodic ambience that you could prolly keep looping for hours without getting bored.

thanks soooo much for this mix. i think i will end up listening to this for a long time.

i really get a sense of adventure from the song, which is perfect considering it;s a cave story song. :)

Interesting mix we've got here... it's a rather enjoyable piece that just seems to keep bouncing along all the way through. The energy presented could make the listener feel all peppy and happy as they listen to the flute bounce and spring from one section to the next.

The remix itself is not really too my taste... I just didn't like having the flute as the lead as it made the rest of the instruments sound a tad "hollow" to me because I'm not all that comfortable with a flute leading the types of other instruments that were in the background. A more solid base line might have fixed that up for me.

In the end though, the song managed to hold my attention for its entire length so it's still pretty good.

I'd recommend this to just about anyone really, just give it a listen and see whether or not you like it.

Alright Corran! Nice to see you're still remixing. Great flute playing as usual. I remember being dissapointed when your 'Forest of Shadows' mix didn't pass the judge panel. I'm glad this one passed and you finally got a mix on ocremix. Congrats, and keep 'em coming :)

oh man your flute playing totally dominates my flute playing. and CAVE STORY flute playing to boot! :D

There are a few things that I ain't crazy about but overall I really like this. Cave story definately needs more representation on the OCR front. Good job :D

Hey thanks guys! I have to say that it's been one of my "life goals" to get a remix onto OCR. Seriously. I found this place way way back when it first opened, in like 1999 or 2000. OCR is what got me into music and recording, etc. I am overjoyed to finally have something here!

Thanks again for everyone's support!

I kinda like this remix. Partially because I love anything Cavestory, but mostly because it is a very good mix. It fits the original quite well and is good, just not particularly to my taste.

The CSRemix Project had some good mixes, but a lot of them varied from the original way too much. This one keeps the tune and uses it throughout, making it a lot better, but I'm still waiting on a Gravity or 1st Core Remix, preferrably heavy metal. :D

This mix is really good to listen to while staring at DrumUltima's signature.

I've always liked this from way before. I listened to the OCR version to see if anything changed, especially after djp mentioned a drum solo which I didn't remember. Alas, nothing new (even if just one thing is ever changed in a song, and it is for the better, it makes me glad inside, no matter what the song). At the time it was doubley disappointing because I was listening on my really crappy headphones. At the time, it almost made me not like it altogether because I couldn't hear any bass at all. Luckily changing from 20 dollar open headphones to 100 dollar closed headphones makes 1000000x the difference in bass and everything else. Anyone who has the money and is a fan of music, wearing 20 dollar open headphones, should go shoot themselves in the face. Well not really, but it's pretty important.

As an aside, someone once said the left-panned synth sounds like a really cheap synth sax. Just sounds like a synth to me. Could be considered weak, but anyone who's played Cave Story (and liked it) should love it.
