Remix of Sonic 3's Ice Cap Zone.
Song name Ice Cap 2003 remixed by Nikolas Hall/Aka known as Nik Manic.
Please listen to the effort put into this remix before discarding it as just "another ice cap remix"..... i love this song, and still think the perfect remix is yet to be found, thank you for your time.
Nikolas Hall
I think that with so many Ice Cap songs on oc currently, we should ask that this song provide something that isnt already on the site. Just a thought - Prot

This song is pretty simplistic. It has nice synth effects, but much of the notation follows no key wahtsoever, such as 2:34. Secondly, much of the drums/melody repeat.
I do like the tempo increase though.
Frankly, I kinda expect better from bd at this point. Try more cool beats, cool melody, cool styles, anything...
NO

Wow.. weird.
Who did the singing ?
And which song is it from the game?
-
Page not found.

Heard this one way back, and again now.
First off, its too short. Second, this song has been done soo many times; it had better show something new.
The drums are rather unvaried.
Note for note with the original. The synths have some aweful conflicting releases. Best way to watch that is to check your 'release' and make sure its not too long when notes are going fast like in this song.
Some iffy notes on the chords, as dan said.
Rather messy on the second half.
Sorry bud, nice idea.
NO

It's good but I can't really figure out what songs are in it.
But still very good.I've been asked this several times, so to clear things up,
This song is a remix of only ONE song, DKC2 - Jungle. This is the theme that shows up in the lost levels jungle. You can hear it by getting jungle.spc from the dkc2 sound track on zophar. I will say that a lot of the song was improve and/or original material, but it is still significantly that song and no other.
-
Lots of nice samples and synths, but very poor use of instruments.
The intro synths have way too much release. A few quality problems here and there..
The melody just keeps repeating. The beat is extremely simple. That violin needs some reverb or at least better usage.
I'm borderline on this one.
Fix the intro release synths and It might pass, but until then,
NO

And another:
Sim_City_Speed_Town_OC_ReMix.mp3
If you listen, its the original played over with some... very ... subpar drums. Anyway, I think it constitutes drums over original.
And Another:
Koudelka_Requiem(ElectricFlamesMix)_OC_ReMix.mp3
This is at Pordon's request. It is indeed track1.mp3 with drums over it and some flanging. He did some repeating, but thats all.

1. YES
Reason: Just sound effects, no game music.
2. YES
Reason: Most certainly the original with a drum loop,sped up.
3. YES
Reason: MIDI rip with instruments changed.
4. YES
Reason: The original spc not even in sync with the drumloop, and a bunch of distorted sound effects from the game. He somehow managed to make it out of tune as well.
5. YES
Reason: SPC with drum loops.
6. YES
Reason: No SC music whatsoever.
7. YES
Reason: GBS rip + drums.
8. YES
Reason: NSF rip + drums.
9. YES
Reason: Original with drums layered on top. Nice job, fun, but a definate violation
10. YES
Reason: NSF rip + drumloop
11. YES
Reason: NSF rip + drumloop
12. YES
Reason: SFX, no Music.
13. YES
Reason: Found the nsf, listened to the whole track. Its not in there.
14. YES
Reason: Its not so much a remix as a huge 2 minute flange effect.
15. YES
Reason: I like the idea, but the quality issues and sanity issues must come into consideration.
16. YES
Chuchurocket_BadCD_OC_ReMix.mp3
Reason: Drum loop on original.
17. YES
Kirby's_Superstar_Wind_Breaker_OC_Remix.mp3
Reason: original with layered scratching/fx
18. YES
Counterstrike_InTheLineOfFire_OC_ReMix.mp3
Reason: Not Game Music
19. YES
Counterstrike_PaleriderTraining_OC_ReMix.mp3
Reason: Not Game Music
20. YES
Reason: exactly the same as original
21. NO
Robocop_CPC_Zone_OC_ReMix.mp3
Reason: Uses original very extensively. But later on theres a ton of original. This is not an extreme violation.
22. YES
Final_Fantasy_7_OneWingedTechno_OC_ReMix.mp3
Reason: Apparently a MIDI rip, But has original values too. Still, its too extreme of a violation.
23. YES
Sim_City_Speed_Town_OC_ReMix.mp3
Reason: If you listen, its the original played over with some... very ... subpar drums. Anyway, I think it constitutes drums over original.

Its been over a week, I dont think we'll get a response.
Any ideas?
I say continue voting on it. If it gets a yes, we'll persue a higher quality encode.
-
I've probably heard this one near a hundred times. Its hardly identical to the original, jo, and represents well the matt pollard minimalistic era.

Hi Prot,
It's been 3 months now and I haven't seen it on the judges forum list, so I'm pming you the submission information as you told me to do so. I just wish I would've saved my old submission email. Ah well, here's the info:
Artist: Adhesive_Boy
Game: Treasure Hunter G (this was for a contest, so I don't know much about the game itself)
System: SNES
Title: Linoleum Stalactites (the best I could come up with...sad, isn't it?)
Song remixed: The World's Cavern 1 (it's called "THG17" on the SPC I have from zophar.net)
Composer: John Pee (again, not 100% sure. That's what it said on the original SPC I had of just that tune, but it's not one from zophar. I can upload it if you want. And the name does make me giggle a little bit.)
Email: (I'd like this to be added to my Remixer profile, if possible)
I also have been told that this game is by Square and released in Japan only. Anyone (judges, djp, or some random people off the street) know this for sure? I probably should've found the rom before I submitted this...
Anyway, if you want specifics, you can read the id tag. There are some EQ-ing problems that I had no idea how to work out then and a few other minor issues like the fact that the lead is kinda strange...I wasn't really trying to replicate a real guitar sound, it just sounded right to me at the time, and it kind of simplifies the original tune, but overall I'm pretty confident in this one. I hope you enjoy it!

Well...I'm a dumbass. Here it is:
There you go.

NOTE: He says all the drums are his, no drumloops. I've seen his drums before, so I believe him.

I'm kinda borderline on this one. It has lots of nice sounding synths, and lots of filling sample sound effects, but its sequencing is rather mediocre. The whole feel is like a half hearted attempt at a mix. I realize that this was indeed the goal of the mix. It accomplished that rather well.
What I dont like is how the song strayed from the original chord progression so much.
Its rather sloppy. I'll give it another listen later.

Hello Michael and Jason,
We are currently reviewing your song for ocremix and have a request; Would it be possible to send us a version of the song encoded at 128kbps instead of 64kbps? 128 and 44khz/16bit are teh minimum quality restrictions for a submission.
The judges appear to be enjoying your song, but if we dont get a better version, I'm afraid it will be rejected.
Just contact me with an updated link or file and we'll reevaluate it.
Thank you
Ari Asulin

Indeed, I listen to that one regularly. I liked his old style far better.
-
There really isnt much going on here except a continuation of one melody with nearly no expantion. The distorted instrument is rather floody and hits some painful notes with the other distorted instrument on the left.
No ending.
Extensive use of drumloops that dont even fit the style of the song.
Needs to be more.
NO OVERRIDE
-
Really dont like that lead instrument. Its hella messed up. Hard on the ears.
Man, that ugly lead is back again. Its like a good lead that someone distorted to all hell.
Note for note eh?
3:00 Beat hasnt changed at all thus far.
Transitions are poor. They just get quiet and then the next part starts.
Finally, the beat changed up, but that lead is killing me, and again, the melody is note for note. Not liking 4:30 at all; the melody is rather unfiting of the accompany.
4:50 gives another fade in fade out transition. And to my surprise, this section is also note for note with the original.
Work on expanding the melody rather than just putting simple drums over the original melody.
NO
-
Very nice boost at 1:15.
Whoa, everything got totally messed up at 1:28. Rather ugly here.
But then it gets moving again.
Continues very nicely from then on. Piano is kinda muffled, some ugly notes happening, but it seems to me that piano is more of an effect, as such it works.
I like the transition; didn't even realise it was happening.
Nice way to end.
YES
-
I would point out that any compliments on notation should be going out to the original because this song is pretty much exactly the same notation wise. That is the reason I voted no. I agree that the original is pretty well done with no real problems.
I just think this is one song where the judges should hear the original for considertion.
-
Yay for invalid session. Anyway,
YES
It was good, yatta yatta, do a real ending next time, yatta yatta...
I emailed the author to try to get those off notes fixed at 2:18 and 4:44.
yea.
-
Hehe, winamp is smiling at me.
This doesn't sound too much like jazz to me.
LOVING that piano.
Great instrumentation.
Love the feel of the song.
The major Rock-style EQ isnt a problem here, save that on certain setups, one probably wont hear the mid tones at all.
On the downside, this song is extremely slow and repeats once. I don't like the fade out ending.
Yes for excellent arranging and feel.

A very basic song. Melody is nearly the same as the original. Sample quality is lacking. Percussions are rather simplistic as well.
Overall, its a song that needs more motivation.
NO

This is pretty much note for note with the original. with lots of effects and percussion.
I'd work sound quality and variation on the theme.
Cool percussion though.
NO

There is an extreme amount of repitition here. The song follows the original quite closely. The drums are limiting. There are some strong off key issues.
I would work on drums as well as the melodic aspects. Gotta watch those Keys.
No
