I love imagining a montage to this song of Sonic and Tails making their way up the tower, facing adversity, meanwhile it keeps cutting back to footage of Eggman dancing, jamming out on a keyboard and shredding on a guitar while he deploys enemies.
My favourite mental image is Eggman (Voiced by Alfred Coleman) going "I've finally done it, a stage so unstable and convoluted and intricate that Sonic and his friends will ne-" Knuckles: "Hey." Eggman: "WH- HOW THE FUCK DID YOU GET HERE?!"
I could definitely see him pushing buttons and grabbing levers on his control panel along to the beat of the song with robots flying out of their holding containers and everything.
This song really makes you feel like it's the build up to the final climax, especially once I realized you could faze through the lasers with Shadow's Chaos Snap.
Triplets born, the throne awaits, a seer warns of a deadly fate, give up your children, separate, bide your time, lye and wait! SONIC UNDERGROUND, SONIC UNDERGROUND, THEY MADE A VOW THEIR MOTHER WILL BE FOUND, SONIC UNDERGROUND
Egg Rock Zone Act 2 is still my favorite level in the game. Change my mind. This music benefits from me not having the same like-dislike relationship with it as Act 1. While I still miss the 2.1 song, this new version is actually really epic, and the tone really fits well, not to mention it does contain familiar parts.

Proceeding deeper into the death trap, Sonic and co. find themselves faced with challenges unlike those they've ever seen before on their journey! With patience, speed, luck, and a little bit of cheating with Super Sonic, they find the strength to push onward... Meanwhile... Fang is getting _really_ sick of this stupid rock. He's almost died more times than he can count on two hands, and has survived entirely off of his quick wit. Oh, when he gets his hands on that fatso... Oh, but what's this? Fang seems to have found himself in... some sort of dance club. There's a dance floor, at least, and some disco blaring. How did he even get here?
Oh, but what's this? Fang finds out that Egghead was hiding in here all along! Fang: "You again!" Eggman: "Wait, what!? How did you even get here!?" Fang: "Same question."
Back in 2.1 I could barely beat deep sea zone. Now, it has been a rough ride but abusing tails carry, 19 Deaths, I finally done what 8 year old me never thought would be possible. I looked at my save file, "Black Core Zone Act 1" and smiled.
This song is my strenght. Thank you, Sonic Team Jr. For making SRB2. If it's not the BEST fan-game EVER MADE, then it gotta be the BEST Sonic fan-game EVER MADE.
I wanted to drop this game thanks to the level, but the music kept me going, until it became my favourite level. I *grinded* the hell out of Egg Rock Stage 2 to the point that I could clear it in three and a half minutes (If I was being clumsy.) That Synthwave Piano is the most Sonic thing I've ever heard in my entire life. Edit: I just broke my own record. 2:54
The part that begins at 2:41 honestly claps, the "wrong octave" notes (for lack of a better term, basically they're a few notes higher than in the normal riff) really spice it up
Literally same. Now I know it was the music that was missing. Once the tracks were updated I was motivated to play and beat it with 3 different characters, working on the 4th now lol
While I enjoyed 2.1 and was hard-core 2.1 when it came out... I too not only never beat the game in 2.1 (although got close by 1 act) these music tracks and stage layouts are so much better now Im barely even able to go back to 2.1 if at all.
Sure, we need Sonic to get through this, but now in the multiplayer servers I'm positive most of everyone needs encouragement and knowledge of this zone.
@@midi_felineNo I prefer it because it was so epic. Finally beating metal's final challenge. That was the best thing ever so satisfying and then ending up in history clash and then beating that final double Metal boss, and seeing the credits and Seeing labor coming in and giving me a metal, and then finally getting to the old museum after like 45 hours. That was very satisfying And then beating sonic doom 2 and getting the grand credits after 50 hours.I beat everything in that game.Everything in srb2 If the past except getting all the metals , but I respect your opinion
I think this might be my favorite track from the game. Maybe I'd make the bass/drums louder and deeper around 2:21 so it doesn't sound quite as "airy" (not the right word, but I don't know how to describe it. It's close to feeling intense, but doesn't fully reach its potential), but that's all I can think of.
0:59 - 1:34 ♫♫ I work by myself, ain't no way CoVid is getting inside So I'm sitting here, at my office desk where I'll be save from everyone, because I work by myself, Corona ain't gonna catch me now Here in my office.... Yes, for me it's the safest place... I ain't catching Corona... Cause there's nobody here... BUT... ME! ♫♫
Almost there. Before encountering metal, this is the hardest area of the demonic metal base. Lazer traps are less than extremily common, and the enemies now have just gone mad. The amount of thought-as-nails platforming challenges the'll encounter is near countless, and pits are now this place's best friend. Sonic knows that there getting closer, so he pushes him self harder, and so, felling like he was running to green flower mountain. He says for the two to hurry up, cuz there almost there.
2:09 as much as i liked the 2.1 version of the song, the guitar does get a bit repetitive imo so in this version, it feels MUCH more rewarding to hear it here, its the climax of the song after a bit of a build up rather than the whole song.
Loved it, but was kind of dissapointed that the final segment of the level was cut out. I loved that part! Also it was really REALLY difficult, but hey, it's the final level! It should be that way. But it's ok, let's see what you make with this levels in the next update. Also happy holidays for the team! Your game is the best!
I'm mostly indifferent to the shrunk section being removed. The removal of the laser miniboss, however, actually made me happy when I didn't expect it to, as the removal made me realize how said miniboss kinda amounted to just waiting.
@@hydrochloric007 it was(is even!), until my sister walked in on me singing alone while working a decade ago, which has always been a cringe moment in my life. =w=;;;
I swear I keeping coming back. This and the next two levels with metal sonic go so hard. It should be sonic music cannon forever. Seriously some of the best sonic tracks to ever slap through some speakers.
This song honestly sounds like an amalgamation of Michael Jackson tracks in the rock style of The Power Station. With music like this, I can look past how deeply frustrating the level itself is
I love all these new tracks, even though I miss the old tracks I think these new ones are overall an improvement. Though one thing I really miss from Egg Rock Zone is how mysterious the old track was. It was really short, but it had a eerie vibe that I think had more of a unique character than the current ERZ tracks, like when I first ever got to the level I felt a little creeped out. Really happy to hear the old melody snuck in though. 😄

You know, this feels like a Sonic Adventure 2 track. I love it.
I was thinking Sonic Adventure 1, it has a big "Final Egg" vibe about it.
Me too.
I think it would fit Crazy Gadget
The intro reminds me a lot of Asteroid Coaster.
The Final Gauntlet... for Egg Rock Act 2
That intro is giving me serious 'Beat It' vibes.
THIS ENTIRE SONG HAS "Beat It" VIBES
Me too
Same thing i said
It reminded me of metropolis zone
0:29 is pretty much taken straight from the riff near the end of Beat It.
2:09 made me tear up in joy - I honestly thought the original theme was cut entirely!
Yeah, it was quite the feeling.
The guitsr sounded better for me
@@alieneko_nyo now it sounds like something from the 80s... And I started to like it for some reason.

Literally the best ost from the game
I love hearing this song in Twisted Terminal

arid canyon 1 is pretty good

no
arid canyon beats it ez pz
At first I was sad that the old theme was gone... then 2:09 happened
Yeah, all the updated tracks are better imo
Oh definitely. They utilize what made the old themes great, and make them even better.
Old deep sea zone are better, fight me nerds
I love both the new and older tracks.
That theme is actually present in Act 1 but it's heavily remixed.
2:09 was an awesome surprise
The old theme!
This part gives a lot of feeling to the song and certainly for me the best part 0:59
Triplets born, the throne awaits, a seer warns of a deadly fate, give up your children, separate, bide your time, lye and wait! SONIC UNDERGROUND, SONIC UNDERGROUND, THEY MADE A VOW THEIR MOTHER WILL BE FOUND, SONIC UNDERGROUND
I just realised that this song a simillar bassline from one of Virtua Racing songs from the saturn !!
Track 34 to be exact.
The rest of the Sonic Team JR: It's just a space station themed stage, don't go too hard with the OST
The musicians:
Everything after 1:43 will be new to anyone who started playing recently.

This music benefits from me not having the same like-dislike relationship with it as Act 1. While I still miss the 2.1 song, this new version is actually really epic, and the tone really fits well, not to mention it does contain familiar parts.
I actually agree with your opinion
And so do i
ERZ2 is easily the most creative level in the game, and the level design is *t i g h t*
There is no changing the opinion of someone who is objectively correct. ERZ2 is one of the best zones in the game, being beaten by BCZ1 in my opinion.
This zone has so many gimmicks, but it makes sense because it is the final zone.
I dont like egg rock sone 1 or 2 because they are hectic and not sonic like at all , you are supposed to go fast . but look ! a pile of dead sonic bodies in the dark endless pitnon the ceiling . music is still amazing tho . I might be dying , but I'm jammin

Oh, but what's this? Fang seems to have found himself in... some sort of dance club. There's a dance floor, at least, and some disco blaring.
How did he even get here?
It's funny cause fang cant even get in the disco area

WAIT WHY DOES THAT MELODY SOUND SO FAMILIAR
