Worth noting that this is actually a fan remix being used in an official project! It’s made by VGR and originally appeared on the album “Sonic Mania Remixed” in 2017. Really cool to see!
Instantly recognized it since I had this album downloaded way back when and listened to it on repeat, haha. Really great remix album, would recommend it
@@chrange9714You can verify my statement by checking the original album; it’s on Spotify and other services. When I said “fan remix” I meant that it was originally created for a fan remix album; it wasn’t made for Dream Team specifically
@@chrange9714 If you don't believe it then just go and look it up yourself. It's on the album "Sonic Mania Remixed". It's also not actually used in Dream Team whatsoever- it's unused in the game's files. It was probably a temporary track the devs used before replacing it with original music.
I know everyone bashes mania for reusing zones. But I would rather play manias rendition of green hill over the sonic 1 version. Mania literally improved every zone that appeared before objectively.
For those wondering why this remix made by VGR was in the game, SEGA decided to put the song in as a placeholder until they finished making all the levels. And yes, VGR approved of this.
if they are gonna reuse zones could we atleast get some that don't really get used? I'd love to see metallic madness again or press garden. Mostly for the music.
It does sound bizarrely similar in places. The part 1:29 is particularly glaring....in fact I’m sure sure it was sampled from one of their songs (and it uses the chord progression from Porta Vista, which they reused a whole ton of times).
