Even as a kid, before I really had any appreciation of music, I would let the time run out on this level just to listen to the song. I'd park Sonic on those rotating lifts and let him spin around while the music played.
+skudzer1985 I felt the same way. I wasn't that into music as a kid but I was waaay into Sonic and Michael Jackson, only to find out 10 years later that the two were related within this project.
@arturlapurinsh3310 This is a common observation, and there is substantial evidence to suggest that Michael Jackson wrote many of the tracks for Sonic 3. It's an interesting story, worth googling! To be clear, whether or not it IS a Jackson song all the composers that worked on the Genesis Sonic games were a cut above both in terms of understanding the Genesis sound system and composing.
@@hoorayforhawksbills I don't think this one's an MJ song, since MJ's Act 2's are always stripped down versions of the Act 1 music. SEGA's music team usually makes the Act 2 of a level it's own vibe when compared to its Act 1 music.
As an amateur song writer, I can safely say that I am always in awe whenever I hear this theme. Segregated into three catchy, amazing parts, each one as memorable as the next one... a leading melody that sends chills down my spine everytime combined with harmonious rhythm sections that weave in and out of each other and is just straight cool to listen to. Absolutely amazing
What strikes me is the level of independence between the different parts - the counterpoint is awesome. It's never just backing and a melody on top, there's always at *least* 3 independent parts doing their own thing, yet fitting together perfectly. Can't help but call to mind Gershwin's idea of a fusion of classical and jazz; Sonic 3's music is like the melodic independence of baroque music combined with the funkiness of blues and jazz. The result is that there isn't a single boring part of the track - as soon as one part takes a breath, another takes over, and they become one coherent melody (technical term being a hocket).
@@thexze honestly the only time I had issues with drowning in hydrocity was when tails would steal my air bubbles from the spawners and cause me to drown.
This has to be my favorite water stage theme of all time. Instead of being laid back and sucky, it's upbeat and catchy. Yet the melody still has that teary, watery feel to it. This is so awesome.
@@MorshuGaming Oh gosh, aquatic ambience from DK Country? I agree with you, that's a true masterpiece. Such a beautiful song that sends shivers down my spine.
Yes, the Ice Cap themes are more memorable and simplistic, but I just find this theme to be way more pleasing to the ears. Don't get upset at it simply for being a water level.
Hydrocity Zone Act 2 is easily one of if not the most complex Sonic 3 songs. Only "noobs" hate water levels anyway. It's just a bit of a slowdown and a bit tricky if you forget that (going to the right = progress... then again this wasn't the case in Sonic the Hedgehog one which is another reason people hate water levels but I found it funny lol)
***** The reason he might say they "for noobs" (though I disagree) is that Water levels tend to be more complex because they use the nature of water in some way that influences the structure of the level and you need to manipulate it rather than just proceeding as normal. Or in the case of sonic, you need to focus on either getting to the next air bubble or out within the next 18 seconds as opposed to going fast. You really have to know th elevel and plan your run accordingly, which people don't do.

***** XD Well I wouldn't say I so much "ruined" it as I did... Whatever it is that Brentalfloss does every now and then. The whole thing about this song is that it's based on how in all the Sonic cartoons, he's afraid of swimming, so I just figured this would probably be what's going on in his head in this level.
0:22 .... this part is sooo epic!! and just when you think it cant get any better.. 0:37 comes outta no where!!!!! This is by far the best tune in the history of sega!!
There's definitely something about the way that the stage starts off in the enclosed wall section and then opens up to show you the background and fast sections just as the "best" part (around 0:22) kicks in (and the rumbling of the wall disappears), which definitely adds a lot to the feeling of that part and embeds itself into your head in a way that you always instinctually visualise and relive when you listen to it
This song specifically had a place in my heart when I was in kindergarten I played this before school and after and this song just clicked into my head and love it to this day with holding on to the memories of the easy days🙏😇
To this day I still can't understand how anyone could cram so much amazing music into one 16-bit game. When I was young i used to stop playing just to listen to the music, now I'm older I come on RUclips to hear it. Good times.
As much as I love the music from the first 2, Sonic 3 (& Knuckles) has such great music that it simply cannot be described in mere words. An ecclectic mishmash of New Jack Swing, late 80s house music, neon urban jazz, and a twist of Michael Jackson. Almost like a less violent, more colorful Streets of Rage.
@@pauls3604 Especially considering they were working without the fancy Sony hardware the SNES had. The old synthesizer on the Genesis could pump out some amazing tunes. Really, the 16-bit generation had my favorite music. We had lush epics (Final Fantasy 6, Chrono Trigger), experimental techno (Sub Terrania, Vectorman), late 80s house music (Streets of Rage, Revenge of Shinobi), and just plain old adventurous tunes (Donkey Kong Country, the Mario games). We were so spoiled in the 90s.
Spot on. Whoever-and wherever-the individuals who composed/arranged these tracks are, I hope they’re aware that 30 years later there are so many people like us who still get so much joy out of their work.

26 years old this song is, and it's still fantastic, still just as powerful when we first heard it, and we were convinced that we were in for something really special for a game...
Recently got my hands on Sonic 3, and found that every single save file on the cartridge was at Hydrocity Zone. None had got past. The first few seconds of act 2 soon made me realise why my predecessor had failed xD (and, then, so did I, until I scraped past on continues)
90s Melo DeathMetal I want you to look up the song called bad by Michael Jackson then tell me do you hear similarity’s not only that but someone mad a remix there the same song he may not composed it but he definitely influenced sonic 3 songs almost all of them for sure
***** That's what I was hearing! And the people who worked sonic explained he used to get really giddy and send in work in progress versions of songs and stuff but then didn't want his name on the final release because he heard the quality of the music and expected... something higher def? I'll try and find the video that explained it all and send it your way
Sonic the Hedgehog 3 was the very first game I ever played. I was 4 years old at the time and it was quite the challenge to beat angel island. But the accomplishment of getting to this stage was beyond exciting to me. This music and stage is what probably made Sonic matter to me more than just being another entertaining icon. It made me a Sonic fan
If you really hear the songs from this game, you can recognize some pop sounds and rythm typically from MJ's composition. Of course, he wasn't the only one guy on the soundtrack, but there is clearly something from him (a little from Jam, a little from Another Part of Me, etc...).
I can't imagine what I was doing when Sonic 3 came out. Probably purposely dying and going back to Angel Island so I can Listen to this Zone Hydrocity Act 2. This particular tune rings the SPEED, as well as the tenacity Sonic has as a protagonist. A wild ride you know? It's not just me saying this. It encapsulated the mid 90s almost on the dot.
i swear i thought i was the only one who thought so much of video game music, even as a 5 year old kid in '95, i never thought id see the day where I wouldn't have to plug up my system, and go to "options" to hear these songs, thank God for techno-advances and genuine people who have genuine memories of genuine times! Peace & Love from NC, Sincerely, A 90s baby ✌🏾
chrono trigger 326 Or they liked the PC version better. However, it's still pretty damn good on Genesis. ;) I love this game. Best Sonic game hands down.
One of the first OSTs I fell in love with as a kid, and the exact same RUclips channel that listened to so much OST from 15 years ago, thank you SonicKAI ❤
Bwahaha. I remember having to be tails and having to swim my older brother up to certain platforms. When the drowning music played... He would yell, "Quick! Come and get me!!! I'm about to drown"! I would love to play this game with him again. XD
It's a masterpiece you really really need to headphones to truly hear all of the extreme detail integrated work put into this it is all another level completely
Even as a kid, before I really had any appreciation of music, I would let the time run out on this level just to listen to the song. I'd park Sonic on those rotating lifts and let him spin around while the music played.

Totally! I'd love to hear your stuff! It's all about flow and fitting segments into "dissonant" circles that resolve so beautifully.
When my mom surprised me with this game on my 9th birthday I was so happy and still at 37 years old is one of my favorites and still playing it.
Awesome! My dad got this game for my brother and me in the 90s. It was one the first games I ever played - and it's still one of the best.
Brooo My mom did the same thing for me on my 9th bday I was so hype and this was my favorite zone cause of the background music

Even though water levels are usually ambient and calm, this one just blows the others out of the water.

But the accomplishment of getting to this stage was beyond exciting to me. This music and stage is what probably made Sonic matter to me more than just being another entertaining icon. It made me a Sonic fan
Listen to this and then Bubbleman Theme from Mega Man 2. Don't you feel that theme similar to this?
+Paco Cotero
Now that you mention it I can hear bubbleman's theme going with this.
Who's still listening in 2021?
Tee Lopes nailed this in Sonic Mania :)
🐐

If you really hear the songs from this game, you can recognize some pop sounds and rythm typically from MJ's composition. Of course, he wasn't the only one guy on the soundtrack, but there is clearly something from him (a little from Jam, a little from Another Part of Me, etc...).
I never had any idea what the lead instrument was meant to be (a saxophone, maybe?) but I've always absolutely adored it.
I can't imagine what I was doing when Sonic 3 came out. Probably purposely dying and going back to Angel Island so I can Listen to this Zone Hydrocity Act 2. This particular tune rings the SPEED, as well as the tenacity Sonic has as a protagonist. A wild ride you know? It's not just me saying this. It encapsulated the mid 90s almost on the dot.

i swear i thought i was the only one who thought so much of video game music, even as a 5 year old kid in '95, i never thought id see the day where I wouldn't have to plug up my system, and go to "options" to hear these songs, thank God for techno-advances and genuine people who have genuine memories of genuine times! Peace & Love from NC,
Sincerely,
A 90s baby ✌🏾
This song gives me such nostalgia... I love it, thank you for uploading it
Its so its making me cry 😭
0:37 best part
Umas das musicas mais belas do Sonic... Nostalgia pura!!
I wish I could go back in time...just to sit in front of my old TV playing Sonic all day long. Miss those days.
Miss the feeling of playing this in 2006 on a Saturday on my Gamecube still have it
Best water level in Sonic.
*in gaming
My alarm when I wake up every morning!
What a great way to start your day
Michael Jackson really knows the ways of Music. This music made me like Water levels, this and Aquatic Ruin from Sonic 2.
Brad Buxter really knows the ways of music.
Ah yes, the song I bop to while being accompanied by my ptsd from the drowning music.
This zone can be a perfect nemesis to aquatic anbience from donkey Kong country
33 people never completed this zone.
34 of those people drowned trying to complete hydrocity lol
chrono trigger 326 Or they liked the PC version better.
However, it's still pretty damn good on Genesis. ;) I love this game. Best Sonic game hands down.
At least 20 were killed by a moving wall
They were squashed to death by the moving wall at the very beginning of the stage.
25 people may NOT have gotten past the boss part.
This has already been said, but again 0:22 onwards is legendary.
Why the song is really makes me wanna LISTENING THIS ALWAYS LITERALLY MY FAV OS-
One of the first OSTs I fell in love with as a kid, and the exact same RUclips channel that listened to so much OST from 15 years ago, thank you SonicKAI ❤
song that made us enjoy this wonderful level hydricity zone 2
MADから来た日本人多すぎで草
みんな！ソニック3&ナックルズやろうな！神ゲーだぞ！
Bwahaha. I remember having to be tails and having to swim my older brother up to certain platforms. When the drowning music played... He would yell, "Quick! Come and get me!!! I'm about to drown"! I would love to play this game with him again. XD

Michael Jackson didn’t work on this song
The entire Sonic 3 soundtrack is amazing. From all the Sonics i think this has the very best soundtrack!
When I listen to this music, it brings me back to the old saying: "Sega does what Nintendon't".
