elman Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 10/10! Although I wish I could remember when this song was played in the game, (The "Futuristic Sky Place"? Or was it when you were in the presence of "DNA Dude"?) I've always loved this song, and you did an EXCELLENT job of remixing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aurora Posted November 13, 2003 Share Posted November 13, 2003 I realise that this song has been out for a while, but recently I lost my entire MP3 collection. I started rebuilding by a huge influx of SGX material. For some reason, I must have missed this when it first came out. I also recently refreshed an old minidisc that I had and I added this song to it. So here I sit at work, and I had to stop EVERYTHING, because this song grabbed all of my attention. I sat there with shivers all through me. It builds so well, and it takes the mind (and apparently body, too) with it. What a fantastic reMix. Thank you, SGX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flux Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 This is very good remix. It's so relaxing and I can easily fall to 'trance' while listening it and forget everything else. Definately one of my favorites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceansAndrew Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 Fantastic and inspiring mix. I love it! The depth of sound is great, and it feels submerged. Super props. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liontamer Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 Awesome intelligent ambient. The instrumentation and sound effects blended together for a very fitting tribute to the Ecco II soundtrack. And later on, of course Danny has it down pat when it comes to the fusion of orchestral and electronic elements. The synths feel like they've aged a slight bit, but it doesn't make a significant impact in terms of how solid this piece is. I couldn't see Spencer Nilsen being anything but flattered and impressed with the creativity and execution here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polo Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 On the surface, Drift seems to share many blood-related traits of Heart of the Giant, like frame of progression, certain synth/percussion types, and even introductory points. But judicious sonic enhancements make this mix more focused and sweeping. I can imagine dolphins leaping and diving along a constantly panning ocean surface thanks to things like: - emotionally imploring synths - thunderous drums - "miscellaneous" sound effects in the source (bovine, chirping, mechanical, etc.) replaced by those of marine mammals to reflect the Ecco setting Makes me wish I could joyride (joyswim?) on the Pacific Ocean like a dolphin.

hmp22 Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 Am I missing something here? As far as I can tell this is a remix of "Friend or Foe", not "Heart of the Giant". Edit: Nevermind, I realized the Sega CD version has different track titles. Confusing. Anyways, awesome as always SGX. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swansdown Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Huh... what grandeur. There's a strong 'journey' sense to it. Terrific adventuring music for Ecco. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
