  • We're joined by StudioNicktendo to celebrate the upcoming release of Sonic Colors Ultimate with this remake of Reach for the Stars!
    ◆ Studio Nicktendo's Channel: / @studionicktendo
    When Sonic Colors Ultimate was announced, I knew I wanted to do a Reach for the Stars cover to celebrate. I did this song way back in 2013 as part of the first Sonic Fan Medley, and a lot of people have wanted a full version since.
    I found out about StudioNicktendo through his City Escape cover, and I loved how well his voice fit the song. So I reached out to him to see if he wanted to be a part of this remix. And of course: he did a killer job!
    Be sure to show him some love over at his channel and in the comments below! :)

      Señor Tendo! Should've cited this slapper as "Supernova the Stars," since you sent this song into SUPER SONIC STATUS; suppressing and strengthening the saccharine source with shots of the steely-Ga-sympatico, smokey-grit sweetness of your special guest singing SUPERIORITY! We salute you sir! Surely you shall serenade us again, soon? SUBSCRIBED!

      I wanted to say, Sonic Colors was one and still one of my favorite Sonic Games, i played both DS and Wii versions, and it took me a lot of time to complete it, and to get Super Sonic on Wii, i still have the game and Wii console after so much time and i really appreciate all this fun i had playing this great game!

    Regardless of your stance on Sonic Colors, we can all agree that as with the soundtracks of most other Sonic games, Colors has a banger of a Soundtrack

    • @KingKayro87
      @KingKayro87 3 года назад +13

      Yeah. Although I never really liked Reach for the Stars. It always felt like it was missing something crucial. This remix and the one from the Sonic Symphony Orchestra seem to have that something as I have no problems with those versions. The original, however, I just don't like for whatever reason.

    • @Parapsyche
      @Parapsyche 3 года назад +10

      @@KingKayro87 Perhaps the original is a little too far on the synth side to feel like a "Sonic song" with the precedent set by the soundtracks before it. Both new renditions have more of a rock touch to them, more reminiscent of Crush 40.
      Colors' soundtrack overall though is, in my opinion, a contender for the best in the series.

    • @KingKayro87
      @KingKayro87 3 года назад +7

      @@Parapsyche Yeah, absolutely. Stuff like Aquarium Park, Asteroid Coaster, Terminal Velocity, and Tropical Resort all have fantastic music. The game looks absolutely beautiful too. As much as I don't like the game, it's got its charm and I can definitely see why it's getting a remastered version.

    • @KairuHakubi
