Back on the Sonic remixes, this is my spin (as requested) on the Star Light Zone, remembered for its dreamy soundscapes and rollercoaster level designs. Hope you guys enjoy my little update :)

I like this remix. And considering that this is not one of my favorite songs, that's saying allot. I'm not saying I hate the Star Light Zone music. It's just that I don't personally consider it one of my favorites.

I feel you, there are a lot more great Sonic songs to choose from. I'm glad you enjoyed it so much though!

Not too bad, really

I'm hailing from the OCR forum, here, but I like to use the board here, when I can. Alrighty, let's see what we've got, here...

I hear some descent about the variety of sounds you use for the soundscape from the other boards, but I feel they could actually work well together. However, your lower mids are dominating the sound too much. You'll need to balance them better in the mix by bringing them down and/or bringing the other parts up.

Some of the liberties you take with the theme (like at 0:26) do not sound good. It seems you were expanding on the original and the effect was intentional, but it just sounds like a mistake here. The counter melody habitually gets out of tune from time to time (like at 0:21), so be ready to take a good look at that line again.

I hear some complaints on the OCR board that the song 'just starts'. While as a song that isn't a good thing, this could work out as an excellent loop if you take the silence out of the end, there.

Nice texture, overall, nice drums, and with the exception of the counter melody that tends to get out of wack you take very nice liberties with it. I suspect you could get some more volume out of this track if you play around with the compressors and such on the master board, but the volume isn't too quiet, either, so that's a nitpick.

Not a bad track. It could be better, but it's certainly not a bad track, as it is.

Cam3leon responds:

Greatly appreciated! And yes I did take intentional liberties with the track in the beginning, just to switch the main melody up a bit. For the most part, it's a straight-up arrangement but I guess I could've integrated the counter melody into the mix better. I'll tweak the sound as well. But thanks for the refreshingly thorough review!

nice!

Yeah! Thanks for putting this together :]

Cam3leon responds:

No problem, thanks for the request!
