AHA THE SAME MUSIC USED FOR TRASH BANDICOOT-

It sounds too cartoony, it gives me vibes of early Willy the Wombat concepts from 1995 before it was Crash, were the unused songs you've uploaded originally intended for Willy the Wombat?

hang on a second...i know why this sounds familiar! You recycled and remixed this tune for the Jungle part of N. Sanity Beach right?

this is more memorable than the menu music... 10/10

I was trying to rmemeber where this was from and it's just hit me! It's the N.sanity music when you get to the first checkpoint!

This was the first demo (along with three others) submitted to Universal Interactive and Naughty Dog to be considered for the Crash Bandicoot gig - TWENTY YEARS AGO ))))
