The track you're thinking of was on the old VGMix, not OCRemix, and it was by "Musically Inspired". It's still one of my favourite Sonic 2 remixes. I remember following the tune's progress through several versions, but I'm not sure if it that track ever made it beyond the "work in progress" section of the site to the main section. As someone who has been an OCRemix user for years, but never really lurked round the forum (I only registered just now because I stumbled across this post in a search for that exact track!) I'm not really sure what the attitude to VGMix is round here. But I have to say that my pleasure in seeing the site had recently come back up quickly dropped when I saw that it was a big step backwards in terms of design (what, no "search by game" option?) and that hardly any of the mp3s on the old site had been restored (some other favourite Sonic 2 remixes which were lost include zykO's "Eggshell Bolero" and "Marblez in Your Mouf"). Not that the old VGMix was perfect - I remember them getting rid of my favourite ever GoldenEye remix (JobeGDG's "Flight from Arkangel") because it was allegedly more similar to the movies' James Bond Theme than to the original music in the game's Runway level. Not sure how involved copyright infringement was in that decision, but it always seemed a bit dubious to me since they kept other GoldenEye remixes which, like the game's music, incorporated the Bond theme to some extent...
