Sweet funky (that middle segment!) ninja jam from the OG DJP that still hangs out on my playlist. I'm definitely a fan of that watery synth, as well as how the elements build on each other as the remix progresses. I agree with his own words that it ends a little abruptly, but it still sticks the landing. 🥷

Good track overall, but the instrumentation and/or levels in the first 28 or so seconds are a little too jarring whenever this randomly comes up in the playlist. I think the ending is also a little too abrupt. However, everything in the between is a killer energetic ride of a remix that continues to hold up.

Another MkVaff banger that still holds up. Maybe because I'm not a traditional trance fan, but this is just so good. The layers, instruments, and progression throughout the remix are damnnn impressive at 24. ALMOST nails the ending too, but the fade out needed at least another 5 - 10 seconds to not sound abrupt to me. Minor issue overall though, stellar track.

I'm a sucker for a haunting piano melody, but I agree that the guitar is what elevates the piece to STILL reside on my playlist. The only thing I'm not a fan of is the ending, it feels too abrupt in those last few seconds before the fade out. Doesn't ruin the remix or anything though, give it a listen!

Still enjoying this atmospheric energetic remix. Never played the game, but if just the music inspired this track then I must've missed out. I'm a fan of the chirp, although the usage can hit the borderline if you start to focus on it. Not really an issue when I'm just listening to my playlist though. That additional layer definitely adds to the lovely depth of the piece.

Still a delightfully chilled groove that matches the title perfectly from the first moment to the last. I've never played the game, but so glad I took the time with this remix. Give the artist's other stuff a listen too!

Still listening in 2025! I'm much older than 2 and also love this short (too short!) song, a delight whenever it comes up on my playlist. A happy little earworm from early OCR!

First page goodness from DJP! Love this 80's action sci-fi theme song of a remix. It's the gift that keeps on giving almost 25 years later (and counting)!

4/4 keepers for me out the gate with this artist. Technical aspects aside, this track takes its time, different than the energetic pace of the previous remixes where I could see Mega Man battling through the level. This time it's almost like Bubble Man was taking time for some introspection (I'm just Bubble Man). The middle was an unexpected delight. Also, finally no one can say the ending was too abrupt! 👍👍

Damn, June 2001 was a busy period for Steve Pordon! This is 3 for 3 for me in regards to the tracks being keepers, starting with Rigor. This track is personally an atmospheric delight (matching such a fantastic atmospheric game), taking me back to wondering around the Chrysler building for hours (I wish this track had been playing!). 👍👍

Another solid remix (after Rigor Dance)! This track brings wackiness with the samples, which I think work well, but the unique energy is what keeps me coming back. Moon Patrol was not on my bingo card, nicely done!

Still a great remix, and another hit by the artist. The enrichment on the source tune really nails that action/desperation vibe that any Mega Man level should have. I actually don't have an issue with the ending. While it could have another 10-20 seconds after that final buildup, it's nowhere near the abruptness of Wind Shear (which I also really liked!)

❄️The frosty sound and panning make this track a keeper for me. No idea what the vocal is from (surprised it's not Jump! Slide! or something), but I think it meshes well with the remix's chill energy. ❄️

Still a solid track that hangs out in my playlist. Another great remix from Scott Peeples, and after the fantastic Mysterious Groove which I still listen to regularly as well. Atmosphere and beats on point, love that 🎹

Wow, looking back at these comments this track got some hate! I definitely like this track though, and continue to keep it on my playlist. While some "more in the know" may not think it's the most technically proficient remix (even for the early 2000s), for me the different aspects of this track bring together a solid fusion of 8-bit and electronic music. I'll admit, like DJP said it did take more than one listen through before the song clicked for me (it was a bit too busy for me initially). After that though, I've enjoyed this monster-hunting groove every time it's on. 👍🗡️🪓🏰🧛‍♂️👍
