Sweet
This sure brings back some good childhood memories, this was pretty awesome. At some parts it seemed the guitar got too quiet and drowned out a little where I think it should've been finishing the rest of the melody, but other than that I liked it a lot.
Great
The only thing that I didn't like was the drums. they could use some work. Other than that it was perfect.
That boss was HAAAARD as Knuckles... dang inferior jumping abilities.
Aaah...memories...
I remember when i saw final boss first time. It scared me off because i had no clue how to defeat it.
The Memories...and The Nightmares
The good ole' days of 32bit gaming. I remember the first time I heard this theme on the old Genesis. Sounded like something from a horror flick. I've always wondered what it would sound like with an orchestra, but this is absolute brilliant!
But, like with the Metropolis Zone cut, its lacking in bass. Just a touch more to give it that nice hard hit on the kick drum and the bass lines would work perfectly with it!
Not bad.
You nailed it perfectly for a boss battle theme but it doesn't feel very imposing and sinister very much. Just give it a bit more of a evil feeling and a 10 will go to you.
