It's hard to find a unique Ice Cap Remix that is done really well. This piece is definitely unlike the other Ice Cap Zone remixes I've heard. It's done very well. Awesome job as usual, BGC.

I was downloading this expecting it to be your same one from ReCapitated with your off-tune voice. But no. Instead I find this amazing track that seems to have strayed from your usual style; in a good way. Two thumbs up on the excellent remix.



(ps. I did actually listen to all of the ReCapitated remixes. Joke or not. There were actually two mixes in that project I liked: Ice Cap Zone 2007 and A Work of Staggering Genius. Even though most of the mixes didn't appeal to me, there was no need for the uber harsh reviews I saw on the day.)

Crap, this is getting out of hand. Right when I started on OCR, I said to myself that I would never attempt to listen to any remixes featuring Megaman, Sonic, or Mario games just because I don't like them as games. But after listening to a very excelent final fantasy remix by housethegrate, I decided to see what else he has put out. Sadly, he did megaman and sonic as the only two other songs. But I listened to them because I wanted to see what else he has done. Much to my suprise, I loved them. Now, here I am listening to another sonic remix after I told myself that I never would. On top of that, this is actually very impressive. I never thought that sonic type music could be so enjoyable. Thanks BGC, you are changing the way I look at music.(Which is a good thing.)

This is stunning. BGC has been one of my favorite remixers, but it's incredible how much he's improved even over his excellent earlier work.

The lead solo is cool, but it was actually the sliding bass solo at 1:27 that I enjoyed most - that's something you don't hear often outside of jazz.

Nice production on this one too - the mix fills out the spectrum richly. A small concern though - the kick is barely audible for most of the song. The bass is on the quiet side too aside from the aforementioned solo, but I suppose it's a compromise when there's so much going on during the busier sections.

This song sparkles. It feels so full, expansive, and soaring - simply excellent. I know the comparison is trite, but for me this really evokes the rolling of end credits after some epic conclusion in a movie. The bar for electronic music here at OCR just got a little higher - well done BGC!

Very nice work, even though I personally don't find the Ice Cap theme very appealing at all. That solo around 2:20 is especially awesome. I'll be checking out some of your other stuff now. :)

Man, I really dig the part that starts around 2:20, I'd like to hear more of that. Nice job overall.

Hell yes. The solo was great, but the end of the song just killed me. Very good stuff.
