Btw, congrats for making this fit the stage it was meant to play, for some reason this is probably the swap that works the best in OG Sonic 2. IMO, CNZ 2p really fits Casino Night and OOZ really fits Oil Ocean, but your take really works well for Oil Ocean
Thanks. Like I said in a previous comment, me and Sonic 2 have a lot of history, and I wish I could someday see someone accurately capture the feel of a SegaCD styled version... by reusing a modified framework for a canceled Sonic Advance 3: Remake project or something...
@@RobinNerdington I would attempt to make a CD version of Sonic 2 that is more of the original concept with the time travel storyline if I could find the decomp of the CD version of Sonic CD and not the mobile port.
@@Cretaceous158 Good luck, the original Sonic CD's source code is a complete clusterfuck so there's only decomps of specific levels. Because each level has their own separate copy of the source code.
I find it kinda funny how this theme is often associated with Genocyber City, but there's 0 evidence to that Kinda funny how some old ROM Hacks accidentally create misinformation
@@bladewolfdarknight1605 it fits fine for that particular Cyber Genocity take (The one from Sonic 2 Long Version) but for more accurate ones I feel like it just doesn't work well
The graphics from an SNES game became associated to Genocide City forever because of that hack. Its nostalgic, though I was like 5 years old when the last release of Long Version came out, I first played it for the first time when I was in middle school. Sonic 2 and I have a lot of history, I've always been super interested in it's development and always looking to learn more about it.
@@RobinNerdington I have I similar history, as a child I became really interested in cut content, prototypes and stuff like that thanks to the Simon Wai build (Which was all that was known back then iirc), so it made me really interested in hacks that tried to recreate that, like Long Version and Sonic 2 Delta, I remember them fondly, even if they weren't that accurate (which to be fair, they couldn't be, there was too little information back then)
@@yagofazcoisaseuacho8035 Researching has been both fun and frustrating at times. I remember when the CENSOR Prototype was released. I was like "oh my god! BETA 3 IS HERE AFTER SO MANY YEARS!"... then I was disappointed that its the build where they were far into restructuring the game.
There's so much about this song that I love. The clanking samples add so much, it feels so nice seeing Oil Ocean using the song originally intended for it, and god the night time visuals add so much to the song. All the backgrounds in your remix perfectly complement the song and create a good image of the stage inside my head. It was so nice catching a new upload from you, and its again another great remix!! I really can't wait to see more for you, I'm sure your upcoming remixes will be as great as the others
Has the "hard work" vibe that the demo had. The only complaint I have is the background is at night instead of evening. But the night background would work well for act 2.
Got a few songs on a list that I really wanna work on, those being: Genocide City 2 Metropolis 2 Casino Night 1 Not sure which one I'll work on, so feel free to guess. Hey, I could turn this into a guessing game.
Your remixes are good dude but you are doing the same thing that most people who makes hacks about the scrapped content of Sonic 2 does and that is not paying attention to the fact that these songs used in prototype can be just placeholders for zones that didn't had its own songs yet and ended without having one once they were deleted from the game. Sand Shower using the song that is now the theme of Oil Ocean is an example of that, there is the possibilty that song was always meant for Oil Ocean and was used for Sand Shower because of its desert theme and because said zone didn't had its own song yet, personal opinion I think that the song fits with Oil Ocean because it has an industrial theme to it but doesn't fit with Sand Shower because of the eastern theme. Cyber City is another example, the zone never had an official theme created for it so I think that the best option is either create a new song or use the Casino Night 2P song as there isn't any evidence that the songs for Chemical Plant and Death Egg were meant for it.
Please, listen back to the Masa version of Oil Ocean and Death Egg and tell me again if it fits those respective stages... Plus, Cyber City is a special kind of zone due to the fact it is not just one location, but multiple locations across the island. The dread factor that the "Death Egg Zone" music gives is exactly the kick it requires, it wouldn't work at all with CPZ or CNZ2P.
@@bladewolfdarknight1605 See?, this is what I'm talking about, you guys are either not paying attention or are just straight ignoring the fact that things normally change during development for something that team working on it thinks it's better than the previous ones, take the Prototype Songs from Sonic 3 as an example. I said in my comment that songs used for the zones on the prototype versions of Sonic 2 doesn't confirm that they were the official themes of said zones.
@@Igor39K I was just saying that Chemical Plant's music was the only one that played in the level slot. I don't think that it would've actually used it if it were completed.
@@Igor39K Ok, now you're just pulling stuff out of your ass. The prototype songs for Carnival Night, Ice Cap and Launch Base are the original tracks before MJ came aboard. Why do you think they brought them back for PC Collection and Origins instead of just redoing them from scratch?

I've always loved the theme of casino night (2-players) and this remix has brought it to new heights!!
~Octanol Ocean Zone~
this feels like the more stereotypical version of a factory while actual oil ocean zone fits with the theme of "YOU'RE FRICKING BURNING"
Are you sure you're not mistaking it for Cyber City Zone? :0
Nah he’s mistaking it for sonic manias oil ocean

just missing the oil getting sucked into the tubes
(funny palette cycling error)
Blame my animator lol

The Night background for Act 1 is actually on purpose in this case. But it's not a long night. ;)
I have an idea for Act 2, Act 2 would take place inside oil factory in Oil Ocean Zone
Oooooo, love it.
Do you have anywhere we can download/buy your music? Want to add a couple of these tracks to my playlist but I don't see a link anywhere.
This one hits different ngl
Is it fine if I use this music in my Sonic 2 2013 mod that makes Oil Ocean look like the one in this video?
What will next song be?
Got a few songs on a list that I really wanna work on, those being:
Genocide City 2
Metropolis 2
Casino Night 1
Not sure which one I'll work on, so feel free to guess. Hey, I could turn this into a guessing game.
