ProjectSpam Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Absolutely amazing. This is probably one of my favorite tracks from you. The production is incredible, but this is just... super-pretty to listen to. But at the same time, I feel like a badass. I'm not sure how often I get those two feelings at the same time.

EtherEel Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 The game cover is absolutely silly - quite a stark contrast to how awesome that song of yours is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeepChild Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 I threw this into a playlist at work along with a bunch of newly downloaded remixes and hit play. It was a few days before I really caught on to this mix. It ended and jumped to the next track and I thought to myself, "what was that? That was sweet." I stopped what I was doing and really concentrated on the music. Wow, what a beautiful piece! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Penwald Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 It took a while, but now I finally remembered which other OCRemix this one reminds me of: Bando alle Seghe Both are very relaxed, Enigma-esque songs. For the most part, that is; after all, the remix at hand picks up quite some speed in the second half. Awesome stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muzikmakur Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 OK, I am the composer of this little piece of overlooked (and rightly so) video game music from the 90s. I composed 10 or 15 of these kinds tracks. For this game I was told that the end sound in the game was basically just a very short synth blip, so I composed on a synth with a square wave with a short sustain. Memory was very expensive back then. I mean like $50 a megabyte. Anyway, it was just the one or 2 voices as I recall and so I decided the only way to keep things "interesting" was to write with a lot of counterpoint. I was quite happy with my results considering the limitations. But low and behold when I went into the office to hear the final product it was worse than I could have ever imagined. They had actually edited out notes of the composition because of limitations in memory and limitations in melodic range without ever consulting me on the final result. It was absolutely horrible sounding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT: Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that Zircon you are awesome for making this mix! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ad.mixx Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 So listening back, I think throughout 2011 so far, this still tops as one of my favorite remixes so far this year. What I especially love about this mix is the the airy sound that comes from all the reverb mixed with the pads. The whole song sounds so elegant, but at the same time it still has a beat to it that pumps me up. It just sounds like the song shouldn't have ended where it did, though. I really thought a lot more could have been done, IMO. But it's nothing I'm complaining about too much, really. One thing that's sad about this remix is the fact that just because it's not from a Zelda or Chrono Trigger mix, it will probably be overlooked by a lot of people for no good reason. This is an amazing remix. Definitely worth a download. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crulex Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Tails had a game? Wow. Anyway, an impressive ReMix in a span of three hours. I wouldn't have believed it if it was Zircon. And once again, Zircon creates something with an amazing beat and I have to say that this is probably the best Pico ReMix I've ever heard. And I mean ever.

timaeus222 Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 I can't resist either. After reading this: "When SEGA threw down the gauntlet and Larry made the challenge for ReMixers to create arrangements from the Sega Pico platform, [zircon] couldn't resist..." I feel like Andy actually said to himself... "CHALLENGE ACCEPTED." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black_Doom Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Hmm... This doesn't sound like a typical zircon mix. It's more reminiscent of Radiowar's "Quicksilver" - it has the same cold, glassy vibe too. That's cool. But when I've almost drowned in ambience of this mix, that moment at 2:17 actually kicked me a bit. Quite groovy piece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
