The rusted pipes moan from decades of a diet of robotic sludge as the evil Eggman overflows the world with his dominance.

Or something like that.

This may be the biggest departure from the original music in the entire revamped soundtrack. There are two things going on here: 

The first is that I wanted to score the 'Lost' part of 'Lost Levels'. It needed something mysterious and perhaps somewhat foreboding. Lost Levels are a tribute to all the stuff that never made it into official releases yet had assets leftover in one game or another. If the fan-canon here is anything to go by (including the zone name) it's something not many people have visited, abundance of badniks aside.

The second is that like I said in the Hilltop Heights music description, with this soundtrack I really wanted to obliterate the usual preconceptions of what a 'retro' and 'sonic' game should sound like musically. It's obviously not 16-bit/YM2612 and perhaps a little more 'modern' than the typical 'Redbook Audio' game of the early 90's.

While technology may have been half of the mold I wanted to break out of, the other half would be... 2D Sonic in general. Don't get me wrong, All of S1/S2/S3&K had awesome soundtracks for slightly different reasons, but there's also just so much more that can be done. Take Sonic Adventure's Mystic Ruins for example. Without the visual association the first thing that comes to mind might not be 'Sonic', at all!

There's also that little tidbit in the form of S2's Hidden Palace unused track. It... doesn't sound anything like a sidescroller Sonic composition, especially when you compare it to the extremely trippy/catchy rhythms and hooks of S3&K. In fact, if you chucked it into RPGMaker or some such it really wouldn't be all that of a stretch to expect a Final Fantasy style random encounter and then battle music out of the blue. That was something I really, -really- wanted to explore, and I think overall it works!

Or maybe that Hidden Palace track went unused for a reason. Or maybe I'm just scratching a JRPG itch. You decide. ;p
