Still listening in 2025! I'm much older than 2 and also love this short (too short!) song, a delight whenever it comes up on my playlist. A happy little earworm from early OCR!

First page goodness from DJP! Love this 80's action sci-fi theme song of a remix. It's the gift that keeps on giving almost 25 years later (and counting)!

4/4 keepers for me out the gate with this artist. Technical aspects aside, this track takes its time, different than the energetic pace of the previous remixes where I could see Mega Man battling through the level. This time it's almost like Bubble Man was taking time for some introspection (I'm just Bubble Man). The middle was an unexpected delight. Also, finally no one can say the ending was too abrupt! 👍👍

Damn, June 2001 was a busy period for Steve Pordon! This is 3 for 3 for me in regards to the tracks being keepers, starting with Rigor. This track is personally an atmospheric delight (matching such a fantastic atmospheric game), taking me back to wondering around the Chrysler building for hours (I wish this track had been playing!). 👍👍

Another solid remix (after Rigor Dance)! This track brings wackiness with the samples, which I think work well, but the unique energy is what keeps me coming back. Moon Patrol was not on my bingo card, nicely done!

Still a great remix, and another hit by the artist. The enrichment on the source tune really nails that action/desperation vibe that any Mega Man level should have. I actually don't have an issue with the ending. While it could have another 10-20 seconds after that final buildup, it's nowhere near the abruptness of Wind Shear (which I also really liked!)

❄️The frosty sound and panning make this track a keeper for me. No idea what the vocal is from (surprised it's not Jump! Slide! or something), but I think it meshes well with the remix's chill energy. ❄️

Still a solid track that hangs out in my playlist. Another great remix from Scott Peeples, and after the fantastic Mysterious Groove which I still listen to regularly as well. Atmosphere and beats on point, love that 🎹

Wow, looking back at these comments this track got some hate! I definitely like this track though, and continue to keep it on my playlist. While some "more in the know" may not think it's the most technically proficient remix (even for the early 2000s), for me the different aspects of this track bring together a solid fusion of 8-bit and electronic music. I'll admit, like DJP said it did take more than one listen through before the song clicked for me (it was a bit too busy for me initially). After that though, I've enjoyed this monster-hunting groove every time it's on. 👍🗡️🪓🏰🧛‍♂️👍

This track goes from 0 to funky instantly. I do agree that the frequencies dabble a bit high at times, but those occasions don't bring the track down. It was a solid effort when DJP was testing his new equipment back in the day, this remix still holds up on my playlist. 👍

Great source, and this remix is still a keeper. Weird, atmospheric, it's all been said before about this beauty from Mazedude. Don't take your whale to the moon without this.

A nice and airy remix that has held up on my playlist. The first minute seems like it's going to go in a more energetic direction, but then the song settles into a nice ocean current that carries through the rest of the piece. 🌊🫧🫧🫧

Ha, two remixes of this source within months of each other...and nothing since. I really enjoy Mazedude's take, and wRenchpilot's also holds up on my playlist (and then some!). Each bring their own unique style, and this one counters the former's slower groove with its own energetic quirkiness (plus I dig the croak!). There's definitely room for two badass Area 4 remixes in this world, we'll see if another challenger ever rises up out of the swamp.

From beginning to end, rock-solid remix that's still just as good today (IMO). Love the energy, the atmosphere this song brings. Makes me want to dive back into the game. Classic!!

A fun funky track that still holds up on my playlist. Infectious, although I admit I'm not a fan of the last 15 seconds before it ends. Doesn't ruin the song though, I'm a fan 👍
