Ever since I discovered your JJ2 OST remixes I was waiting for this one song, Dark Groove has always been my favorite. At this point I have listened to this remix about at least 20-30+ times. ... And I couldn't get it. It just didn't click with me for the longest time. I felt pretty bad about it. Because ALL of your remixes are so exceptionally good, I got over-hyped waiting for Dark Groove. And the first many listenings, I couldn't bring myself to like it. I was honestly disappointed and didn't want to be. And then today I feel like I finally understood - if I am correct this remix is actually not supposed to be DARK. It might be obvious for somebody else but for me this song seems actually pretty calm, chilled, even happy and funny with the great inclusion of Popcorn theme. And THAT'S what caused my initial confusion. You see, I love the original Dark Groove so much BECAUSE it is dark. The tone of the original is about the hell landscape. And so I expected this one to be dark as well. Now I realized this was never meant to be the case, this is actually a different take on the song. A happier, more chill version. And as such, after this realization, I started to love this one too. Thank you for making such amazing music ❤️
Thank you for listening and sharing your thoughts! 🙂 Indeed I don't try to copy the original, nor just replace the instruments and call it a day like some others might, but instead add to it, expand the original ideas and/or present a different take while at the same time preserve as much as possible from the original. You can hear that the intro is indeed very dark and ominous, but it then develops into a synthwave-like tune that's not too dark and not too bright/happy so there could be a balance. The Popcorn reference almost didn't make the final cut, but the track felt a bit too dark and serious without it (with all the electric guitars and such) so I decided to include it after all. 🙂 Glad to see you liked it in the end! 😊
RUclips autoplayed this, and I didn't realise what it was, but I tabbed over so fast when I realised I was hearing a Kraftwerk bassline. Amazing remix, thank you for sharing
2 masterpieces on the same day, you are on a roll Allan! I can only imagine the chills I would get from listening to your interpretation of Hell Freezes Over, but I don't want to overstay my welcome as you also have mentioned that not every songs make sense remixing, but I really hope this isn't one of them as we've been waiting for this for so long! Anyways, love this one and I appreciate the fact that you still remix Jazz Jackrabbit 2 songs!
Absolutely love this rendition of Dark Groove. It gives me happy and nostalgic vibes, giving me the feeling of wanting to drive through the city at night ❤ have listened to this on repeat for months now!
It's like You have to enter the hell in an impossible mission to save your soul buried deep in it And the time is too short What an epic stage and soundtrack Great job 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Incredible interpretation. I love the beats, it adds a bit of melancholy but with modernity. I love the Dark Groove stage, I wanted to last longer, it was that kind of stage that now as an adult I like it, and it brings me back memories of waiting for a super boss hidden, or maybe a cutscene, it depicted the journey of our hero into the depths of hell, it was almost a "tranquil" stage and OST right before the dynamic ending stages. Great tune!
Yet another master-piece, Allan! You remix Alexander's tracks but still keep the magic intact! I also saw the ingenious integration of "Popcorn" by Gershon Kingsley in this track, haha awesome! Man I really need to learn to use synthesizers myself but I have no knowledge of chords, I will try to learn them someday!
Many thanks! Glad to see you enjoyed it! :) Yea I decided to make some nods to some more emblematic tunes from the past (and there's one more nod to electronic tune from that era as well hehe). As for learning chords and music theory - just dedicate time and effort and you'll get the hang of it! :)
@@AllanZax Anytime Allan! I hope you get way more recognition for your awesome work. I think your idea worked out perfectly! I've listened to countless remixes of JazzJack's tracks and yours are literally the BEST. :D Thanks Allan! it means a lot to me, coming from an experienced musician like you, I will do just that. I bought the Reface DX as my first FM Synth and will dedicate myself to it like you said. Many thanks! :)
Hehe yea I wanted it to be as faithful to the game as possible and yet have some synthwave theme as well and the artist (Shaya Fury) did a great job with it! 🙂
Man, if they ever decide to work on a new JJR game, they should hire both Alex Brandon and yourself to do the music. The result? An absolute banger of an OST. :D
Hey this sounds great! I've got doom 2's slaughterfest 2012 wad to thank for introducing me to this song. It's in the very first level and sets a nice mood. I've never actually played jazz jackrabbit, but I think the OST is excellent and so is your remix! Well done
Amazing remix, blew me away. I always thought Jazz Jackrabbit was 99% the soundtrack. The games have nothing to offer basically, the first one was good for its time with great art direction, but it's so weird that Jazz 2 even came out, but the ost is marvelous.
Thanks! Glad to see you like it! The Jazz2 OST is awesome indeed! :) You can also check my other Jazz2 remixes in this playlist: ruclips.net/p/PL3oexk5sWU5V3AwucNslrPnt9vg2oJtRX
Great NRG, futuristic, progressive track. Slow enough tempo to give it some "stateliness" Stateliness signifying a slow, unstoppable, steady, forward progression.
Your Jazz remixes/covers are the best I can find, very good 👍. You should do a cover of Pull back the bass. Tub electric would also be good as a mix in your style 👍
Yea, Lori's ending is featured extensively at multiple places in the "Frolick Lane" remix. It's just woven very well into the instrumental and doesn't stand up as much as Jazz and Spaz ones. 🙂
Thanks! One of the times is: On the Frolick Lane remix check at 0:39 when you hear Lori saying "weeee" immediately after that is her ending theme (listen carefully as it's transposed and timestretched so it would fit the moment as seamlessly as possible.) 🙂
This remix is awesome! I'm a fan of all your JJ2 remixes. I was wondering, could I use this song in a YT video? With credits, obviously. Thanks in advance.
Hello Alan👋 Congratulations on your 2k subscribe 🎉 And now about Remix: It's just fantastic and gives a very cool and dark atmosphere. And let me add that this is my favorite soundtrack from the whole game 🥰 P.S. From what I'm right, there are 2 easter eggs (I can be wrong of course😅): 1. Music from Crazy Frog 2. The end of the level (stage clear) when playing with Spaz (?)
Thank you! Nice to see you liked it! :) The music you refer as "from Crazy Frog" is actually one of the earlies electronic music tunes named "Popcorn" by "Hot Butter" and was released in 1972. "Crazy Frog" just did a remix of it. :) Also yea you can hear the Spaz "stage clear" at the end (as I've already used Jazz's and Lori's in other Jazz2 remixes). Btw there is one more easter egg from a classic pioneering electronic music track. :)
@@AllanZax Hmm, I didn't know there was an original from the 70's than from Crazy Frog. There is, however, another Easter Egg. I listened to it again and I can't remember when there is 3 easter egg 🤔😅
Love your jazz 2 remixes! Always well made. Do you have any plans of releasing them on your Spotify? Would be cool to listen to them on the way back home
Thanks! Glad you enjoy them! :) I'd like to release them on streaming services, but can't because I don't have the distribution rights - they are held by Epic.
Hello Allan, I have one question to you about music creation. I had a problem that same track sounds much different depending to what I wear on my ears (Philips SHP1900 or SoundBlaster Jam). This is irritating. Can you tell me if any of mentioned are fine to work with? Or could you recommend some good "default" headphones? (but not too expensive please xd after all, I am just an amateur ;) ) Thank you in advance Ps. Nice track (like always) Ps2. After all, your tracks wouldn't inspire me to purchase FL Studio if they were a crap ;0
Hey, yea the headphones/speakers can make a huge difference on what you hear and impact the final product. For good headphones that are not expensive I'd recommend Superlux HD 669 ( www.thomann.de/gb/superlux_hd_669.htm ). I've used them for a couple of years before I got to my current (beyerdynamic dt 770 pro) and for it's price the Superlux sound really good! You can also get a pair of nice inexpensive monitor speakers like Presonus Eris E3.5, but for that you'll also need an external audio interface (a.k.a. sound card) like for example Presonus Studio 24c. If you dont have cash for speakers and a sound card yet then just the headphones will do the trick for the moment. :) If you wanna talk more just send me a msg on any of my social media profiles: linktr.ee/allanzax Also glad you liked the track! Cheers! :)
Okay seriously, amazing song but what part is 5:15 based on? I keep getting a song in my head but I cant figure out where its from. Its driving me insane.. :D Found it asked in other comments, apparently its Popcorn by Hot Butter. I can sleep again at night!
I don't think so... If you're referring to the whisper voices in the intro then yea they are from the jazz2 sfx sounds repository, but I don't know if they are from a level in the game.

Okay seriously, amazing song but what part is 5:15 based on?
I keep getting a song in my head but I cant figure out where its from. Its driving me insane.. :D
Found it asked in other comments, apparently its Popcorn by Hot Butter. I can sleep again at night!
Hehe thanks! Glad you like it! 🙂
Yep, I've added a couple of nods to classic electronic tunes in the remix.

I think this track should feature in stranger things season 5 trailer! I can imagine Steve dancing to this track in his kitchen.
Hehe thanks! Glad to see you like it! :)
Whered you get the art from?
My wife drew it for me. 🙂
There's a link to the art in the video description.
Is that Dark Groove name below JJ2 in a hard rock style?
More like a gothic one. 🙂
Did you use parts from "Hell freezes over" ?
I don't think so...
If you're referring to the whisper voices in the intro then yea they are from the jazz2 sfx sounds repository, but I don't know if they are from a level in the game.

3:32 - Oh...that sounds like Kraftwerk - Die Roboter
5:12 - And that, like Anarchic system - Pop corn
Hehe indeed they are! I decided to incorporate some nods to influential electronic tunes from the past. :)
Is that popcorn I hear at 5:13?
Hehe yes it is! I've added some nice nods to classic electronic tunes. :)
