m68030 Posted May 20, 2002 Posted May 20, 2002 Sonic the Hedgehog 3 'IceCapped' woot. this one is just awesome. McVaffe hits us with even more jaw- dropping beautifulness. wonderful instrumentation and arrangement. Quote
Xaleph Posted June 10, 2002 Posted June 10, 2002 10/10 genre: epic trance I think this is a definate download, it's soothing and it's great to listen everywhere you go. This is the song that I dled from audio galaxy, and was wondering who the artist was, and where it came from. So I typed in OC in my google search, and found oc remix. This song brought me to OC remix =D. It has appropriate voices, good transitions, and good overall affect. ~dj carbunk1e Quote
Liontamer Posted June 12, 2002 Posted June 12, 2002 "Ice Capped" is simply an exceptional interpretation of the Ice Cap Zone music from Sonic 3, and soothes the whole way through. I think the bass is up way too much, but overall, what else can you say but to download it and keep it? The piano's great and McVaffe's a pretty sure thing around here. What's not to like? -LT Quote
skawttieboy Posted June 22, 2002 Posted June 22, 2002 Everything about this remix just makes my eyes pop out and my jaw drop. I just LOVE the beat in the mix, it's so fluid and smooth. I think it's hard to argue when the phrase "Best OC remix" comes up with this song. Quote
Earl Posted July 19, 2002 Posted July 19, 2002 Absolutely Great! I love it! Definitely one of my favorite OCRemixes. Quote
Lat Posted July 19, 2002 Posted July 19, 2002 I personally think that this is the best OC remix. I havent heard them all, but darn skippy, this is one hell of a good song. Its nice and soothing, and of course, it is a Sonic remix, and im a big sonic fan. Quote
sunburn416 Posted July 20, 2002 Posted July 20, 2002 Absolutley beautiful, smooth remix... the bass adds a beautiful touch. It ranks my choice of top 3 remixes on OC (depends on my mood). Quote
skawttieboy Posted August 23, 2002 Posted August 23, 2002 I've found myself listening to this remix OVER and OVER in the past 2 days....and there's one particular little transition that doesn't seem like a lot, but I think it's just soooo cool. But it's the little transition that takes place at 1:55 - 1:59....that's just my favorite of the song.... Quote
sunburn416 Posted September 19, 2002 Posted September 19, 2002 I sent this remix to a friend of mine, and he loved it so much that he had it playing when he proposed to his girlfriend. I also spent my entire summer listening to this remix, it has a lot of happy memories attached to it now. Thanks, McVaffe. Quote
Elex Synn Posted September 19, 2002 Posted September 19, 2002 A great remix, from my favorite. Now you all know why! Quote
danny B Posted September 19, 2002 Posted September 19, 2002 This song embodies the well-done VG ReMix. Production grade quality, and excellent engineering. Quote
mechanicaldeathegg Posted September 25, 2002 Posted September 25, 2002 This remix is so beautiful. Everything about is grand style. When i listen to this song and i close my eyes...... i can see my self in Ice Cap...from Sonic 3>>>>(i know that sounds lame..but i dont care what you think...Sonic Rules....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! is too bad that there is no technology yet where one can live in video game. I hope i am still alive if that technology ever comes...... i would surely be in Ice Cap listening to the original versions and of course... this one by Mcvaffe)>. Quote
Eccles Posted October 4, 2002 Posted October 4, 2002 I really like this! The flute is just beautiful and I especially like the stereo effects in the drum break at 1:44 - 1:56. Quote
Orange Pylon Posted February 2, 2003 Posted February 2, 2003 There was a time when I could not stop listening to this song. Now... wait, I STILL can't stop listening to it. Definitely one of the finest pieces of music I have ever listened to. Quote
DJ_Aquagenesis Posted March 1, 2003 Posted March 1, 2003 YESYESYESYESYESYES!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMFG! THIS IS JUST AWESOME. AN ICECAP MIX WITH A FEELIN OF HOUSE! OWNAGE! Quote
the warlock Posted April 3, 2003 Posted April 3, 2003 One of y favourite OC ReMix's, i love listening to McVaffes work as i can often feel the rythm not just listen, this is so addictive just like his VegaBallad OC ReMix it stnds out as a beautifully crafted piece of mixing and is a great example to newcomers to the mixing world. Top notch ReMixing McVaffe! Quote
VJ THE DJ HEDGEHOG Posted April 8, 2003 Posted April 8, 2003 This is a pure Example of this sites greatness excellent remix. Just love the sound it's getting me addicted to it. I put it on my MP3 played when i go to college on the bus it keeps me from getting bored the mix rules man keep it up! Quote
MegaManXxX Posted July 10, 2003 Posted July 10, 2003 Well what can I say about "Ice Capped" There are so many things. You know when I first heard this song I was captured by it's sheer beauty. I am a huge fan a music, me studing to be a music teacher, music is of course a big part of my life. The start with what sounds like to me is a harp, gets me picturing natures beauty, forests, mountains, oceans. With the addition of the flute and some more percussion added, it makes for one hell of a groove. The Piano just completes the perfect sound for the melody. With the drum break this song just keeps getting better and better. Sitting here grooving, feeling every beat, taking in every beautiful sound that I hear, keeping that one moment, I can truly open my eyes and say this is why I live for music......I'm out X Quote
Numiso13 Posted June 19, 2004 Posted June 19, 2004 This is one of the greatest remixes ever. A+ on the bass line, the flute vibrato, piano work, and just about everything else. But what I enjoyed the most was the effect it has on people. I played it for my friend one day, and she suddenly had the urge to hug me for an insanely long period of time. Needless to say, I now play this song for almost every girl I meet. Quote
Cromage Posted July 13, 2004 Posted July 13, 2004 Brilliant, moving, pulsing with life. Songs like these are the reason I come here (although I never registered before) 10/10genre: epic trance I think this is a definate download, it's soothing and it's great to listen everywhere you go. This is the song that I dled from audio galaxy, and was wondering who the artist was, and where it came from. So I typed in OC in my google search, and found oc remix. This song brought me to OC remix =D. It has appropriate voices, good transitions, and good overall affect. ~dj carbunk1e That's kinda creepy, 'cause I remember finding it on some Sonic webpage and nabbing it from the source code. I listened to it for hours. Unfortunately, the quality had been damaged somewhere along the way. But I still remembered it months later when I discovered this place, and I said, "Hey, I really liked that Ice Cap song." Imagine my surprise when this turned out to be the same song. Quote
jordex Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 hehe I love this remix I think it could have been better though if it was less trancy but that's just me I love the 'effin flute!!!!! So... Laid back (I'm using that term alot) It's cool how the flute has such a soft melody but the background is hardtrance Quote
Ramiro Posted December 3, 2004 Posted December 3, 2004 Dear god this fucking rocks! (colapsing in the floor with a orgazim) sorry. Quote
Pip is uh..... Posted March 14, 2005 Posted March 14, 2005 Wow now this is mixage at it's very best! I'm not too crazy bout the flute. I never cared for the flute but it still sounds pretty cool in this mix. I really love the harp at the intro of the mix. Very trancy and nice. This is some good shit! Quote
PlastikBag Posted August 11, 2005 Posted August 11, 2005 I must say... This is simply my favorite videogame remix ever. Maybe it's the fact that the original is one of my favorite videogame tunes, or the fact that it was the first remix I had listened to from OCR. But I know one thing, it freakin kicks ass. Everytime it comes up on my playlist, I have the urge to put it on repeat at least twice. This will always remain an unmatched remix of Ice Cap to me. Quote
