drew pickles did nothing wrong

I really do like this because of how pleasant it is. It looks like most people agree with me. I can recognize this from your previous Sonic song. It does seem like part of a jungle. I guess that's why I was thinking of the Donkey Kong games. I never really realized what a wide variety of places Sonic goes to.

It's another song that flows so perfectly. Well, I guess a short loop can't really be considered a "song". I hope you played Sonic Generations. The word "generations" in this just made me think of it. Again, it reminds me of a beach.

Pretty good arrangement

In terms of production, it's pretty good (I hear a little fuzzy clipping on the strings, but it's almost negligible so I wouldn't worry about it). It nails the theme well, and the style just sounds so right.

Perhaps I'm being a bit picky, but those string attacks should be decreased so they don't each have that fade in entrance. It's a bit distracting since they're carrying the melody quite often.

Nitpicks aside, I think you achieved precisely what you set out to do, so great job on this.
