To any newcomers who may be reading this, I'd like to take this opportunity to state exactly what Drossin did so we can stop bugging him about it (you'll see why by the end):
Virtual Sonic was recorded back in 1993 (as stated in the 2009 Drossin interview on here), so he composed the Sonic and Knuckles theme and Knucklemania (the tracks that S&K Title, S&K 1-Up, S&K Invincibility, S&K All Clear and S&K Knuckles' Theme were derived from) back then. Those tracks were then arranged and programmed by Masaru Setsumaru some time later (which was anywhere between that point of '93 and October '94 [when S&K was released]; the exact time of that happening is unknown). The themes were intended to be used in Sonic 3, but weren't (hence the Sound Special Thanks credit) but they were put in for Sonic & Knuckles (hence the upgrade to a Music Composer credit).
The 517 S3&K beta (referenced in the 2008 Drossin interview) hints that the versions done by Setsumaru were created between then (May 1994) and the game's release (October 1994), as the credits music from the beta still used the Sonic 3 theme (for the All Clear jingle at the end).
When you look at where the themes originated, Drossin was never actually involved with the production of the game at all; he was just a guy from the Institute who made a CD of Sonic music that would be used for a game but wound up being caught in the middle of a global-scale clusterf**k of rumor, scandal and minimalistic crediting.
Oh, and Chris-chan didn't help, either. (Don't ask)

I'm not saying that Who Is It and IceCap are not related but it really more Smooth Criminal than anything.

You're basically trying to bring up information that's not new to probably anyone here, even if it doesn't appear in the thread. Thus, it's of insubstantial worth for bumping an old thread. But you're a

Something I found out recently: My partner's grandmother works for a BIG law firm (the kind that provide for celebrities/high profile people and such) that would hold annual parties, inviting their clients as well as related celebrities. One of these people was Michael Jackson. I was THIS FUCKING CLOSE.

There's nothing to discuss about it at the moment.
